Is $99 Duct Cleaning a Scam – Read this First

This is one of the common questions out on the internet right today pertaining to air duct cleaning. Because of the low price, it only stands to reason that homeowners need to proceed with caution. After all, how can trained professionals arrive at your house, anywhere in the Twin Cities, in a well equipped tuck, work for 45 minutes to a couple hours and leave with only $99, right?

I know it sounds too good to be true but, let me explain. First, I assume you have already read about duct cleaning on this blog. If not, here are a few posts you might want to read first:

 Whenever I am talking with customers that call in with questions about duct cleaning or to schedule a cleaning service I always ask them how long it’s been since they had their duct work cleaned. If they say last year, I don’t even bother asking them anymore questions. If they called in wanting the $99 deal that’s what I would recommend anyway.

If, on the other hand, they answer that it has been several years or perhaps never, I advise them to go with the rotobrush method. Here’s why; I am sure you have all seen the caked on grime that accumulates behind the refrigerator or stove, right. That “crud” is very similar to what adheres to the inside walls of your air ductwork. Imagine pulling the kitchen stove out and trying to simply vacuum it up. We all know that brushing or scrubbing is necessary.

The same holds true with duct cleaning. If it was just cleaned with a rotobrush last year, the $99 duct cleaning will most likely be adequate. But, if it has been a few years, I would strongly recommend the rotobrush method.

If you are ready to get on the scheule for either the rotorush method or the $99 air-sweep, give us a call at 612-412-1867, we would love the opportunity to showcase our work for you.

Duct Cleaning & Foreclosed Homes

Have you recently purchased a foreclosed home?

Whether you have just bought a foreclosed home or are considering buying one, air duct cleaning should be a part of your home clean-up strategy. Since you most likely don’t know much about the previous homeowners, you may want to play it safe and opt for a thorough duct cleaning.

We suggest the Roto-Brush for foreclosed house clean-up.

While you might be able to get by with a simple air sweep duct cleaning, we encourage yu to play it safe and spend the extra $100 or so and have your air ducts rotobrushed. This is the most thorough method and will remove much more of the contaminants from the heating and air conditioning system.

Clean the ducts BEFORE moving in to a foreclosed home.

Why wait? Be on the safe side and schedule duct cleaning before you move into a foreclosed home. With most professional air vent cleanng companies you should be able to have your air ducts cleaned within 1-2 days. At Twin City Duct Cleaning we are more than willing to meet you at the house at your convenience. If you live in the St. Paul, Minneapolis, MN area including all of the Twin Cities, call us for all the details: 612-412-1867. And congratulations on the purchasee of your new foreclosed home!

Twin Cities Air Duct Cleaning Procedure

Duct Cleaning – RotoBrush Method

Price $249.95 Special $189.00

  • Step 1. – Our technicians first attach a high powered vacuum to the main trunk line leading to your furnace.
  • Step 2. – Next, they go to each branch line and use a tool called an air-wand. The air-wand uses highly compressed air to push all the debris down to the main trunk-lines where the vacuum hose is creating negative-pressure to draw all debris to our van mounted equipment.
  • Step 3. – Once they have completed the initial air sweep, an item called a Rotary-Brush with a reverse nozzle will be used. It will be inserted into the trunk line where the brush will rotate inside the air ducts. This rotating brush “scrubs” the walls clean, removing anything that is stuck on, or otherwise attached to the walls of the air ducts. Once the ductwork has been scrubbed clean, they continue on to Step 4 using compressed air to pull the dust and debris that was removed from the side walls of the trunk lines and any other debris which might have been knocked loose with the rotary brush, back out to the vacuum using Step 2 mentioned above.
  • Step 4. – When the technicians have completed the initial air sweep and “RotoBrushing” the walls of the duct work, they will go to the bottom of the furnace with a 25-ft rotary air-wand, also known as an air-snake, with a reverse nozzle. This creates a tornado effect in the duct work, removing all residue from the sides of the air ducts. This will pull any remaining dust and debris back to the vacuum. The vacuum is “pulling” while the air-wand is “pushing” and it does a very effective job on light dust, dirt and debris.

If it has been a while since your air ducts were cleaned, you should definitely consider using the Rotary Brush Method. Unlike many of our competitors, we brush all your air vents and we clean all return lines and supply lines within your household.
