Duct Cleaning - Process

Air Duct Cleaning Minneapolis actual duct cleaning process begins with a methodical inspection of all parts of the system. Then, before anything else is done, the utmost care is taken to guard your furnishings, carpets and floor coverings with a protective cover. Once Air Duct Cleaning Minneapolis experts are done, the actual business of cleaning can begin.

Wall and ceiling registers are removed so that they can be thoroughly washed. This also grants access to the ductwork. While the registers are left to dry, foam plugs take their place to block the duct openings. Then powerful blowers are used to loosen all debris, and a soft brush is inserted to the inner workings of your HVAC system. The dirt is forced out, straight into a receptacle previously attached to one of the duct openings.

Once debris has been eliminated, air duct cleaning crews use a negative air machine to actually clean the ducts. Before the entire process is complete and registers are replaced, sealant is applied and you may be offered the option of installing an odor remover or electrostatic filter to repel contaminants.

Duct cleaning may seem like a relatively simple process, but it is one that requires extensive knowledge of HVAC systems and should not be tackled by amateurs.
