How Is a Duct Cleaning Done?

Nobody wants to live in a dirty, dusty house, and there are numerous things that can make a house dusty. One of the most common causes are dirty ducts; this is especially true if the homeowner lives in an older home. 

Even if the homeowner has invested in custom ductwork, they need to regularly maintain the ducts. Before calling an HVAC cleaner, the homeowner should take the time to learn about the cleaning process. 

1. Thoroughly Inspect the Ducts 
When cleaning ducts, the first step is to thoroughly inspect the system. This can be done with the naked eye, however, many HVAC cleaners will utilize probing cameras. 

This useful tool allows the HVAC cleaner to get a look at hard-to-see areas in the system. A probing camera also allows the HVAC cleaner to inspect the system for any damage or leaks. 

2. Negative Pressure 
The next step in the duct cleaning process is creating negative pressure. To do this, the HVAC cleaner needs to connect a vacuum collection device to what is known as the air handler. 

After this has been completed, the cleaner needs to seal all of the registers. Once this is done, the HVAC cleaner turns on the vacuum; this creates a negative pressure within the ducts. 

3. Uncover the Registers Individually 
After the HVAC cleaner creates negative pressure, they will then have to clean each register individually. To do so, they will remove the seal. 

This gives the HVAC cleaner the ability to clean each duct. Remember, professional HVAC cleaners will use high-quality tools to efficiently clean the ducts. 

4. Finish Off the Rest of the System 
The final step of the HVAC cleaning process is cleaning the rest of the system. This includes aspects like the drain pan, blower motor, and the evaporator coil. Giving these features a good cleaning will ensure that the system will perform at its full potential for years to come.

From quote, to installation, to follow up, Twintech provided excellent service. I would highly recommended their services.

by John, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I had a really great experience with these guys. The salesman Bob was clearly very knowledgeable about everything to do with heating and cooling a home, spent a lot of time with us going over the details of the job, never rushed us and came back after the install to make sure we were happy. The installation crew was excellent, they covered the floors all the way from outside down to the basement furnace room, kept the place clean, got the work done on time and we’re very friendly. I’ve got 15 years in the contracting/ construction industry and these guys are one of the most professional company’s I’ve dealt with. Great company!

by Debra Robertson on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Had great service and clean-up was good. Was happy with my salesman. They were very friendly and helpful. I needed a new furnace as our was over 20 years old. The furnace and air-conditioner work great and they are very quiet. I am very pleased with the service and product I received.

Met with Dave for the sales process and he was great about explaining and going over everything to us. The install happened very quickly and the team were super professional and friendly. We are very happy with this company and their services and we definitely recommend them to others. Thankful my sister recommended them to me!

Reviews for Twintech were good, and they did not disappoint. After an initial visit to discuss the suitable AC unit for replacement, an installation date was available in just a couple of days, and everything was installed without a hitch. Highly recommended

Very pleased with the installation of our new furnace and A/C unit. From quotation stage to the completion of the job Twintech was very professional.
Thank you for a job well done.

by Darren, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

My old water heater quit on me. I called TwinTech. In less than 4 days, I had my new water heater installed and the old one taken away. The whole process was quick, easy, pleasant, and well done. This is the third time I've dealt with TwinTech and I've been satisfied each time.

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I had them replace my furnace last year. When it came time for the air conditioner this year, I did not hesitate to call Twintech again. I will also have them perform regular maintenance on them.

by Robert, Ajax on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We required a new HVAC replacement after running the old
system for 18 years.
Dave understood our requirements and gave us a quote that
covered all the necessary items.
Installation was fast and very tidy. Everything works as
it should. Our thanks to Greg, Mitch and others for their
excellent work. Recommend this family owned business to
anyone else, considering HVAC or other work.

by John Armstrong, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I needed a new furnace and A/C to replace my 21 yr. old units, and went to the internet to view potential companies in May, I received 3 quotes,
and chose Twintech based on their salesman Dave who was very detailed and covered off everything on what Twintech was all about,
an extremely dedicated company with so many years of experience, and after reading the on line reviews I was sold on Twintech, who did not disappoint as the installation team were top notch with Greg leading,
I would highly recommend this company without any doubts, in my books they are first class all the way. Our new Amana furnace and A/C are working perfectly !
