Fog rolls in, and so does the dust, making air duct cleaning a smart move for San Francisco, California homes. When the marine layer lifts, you want the air inside your house to be fresh, not carrying yesterday's pollen or city grit. We focus on the practical steps involved in clearing out your home's ventilation system. First, the pros arrive and lay down drop cloths to protect your floors and furnishings. They'll then access your main ductwork, often through existing grilles or access panels. A specialized, high-powered vacuum system is connected to your ducts to capture loosened debris. Next, they use rotary brushes and other tools to dislodge dust, mold, and other buildup from inside each duct run. This process is methodical, ensuring thorough cleaning from your HVAC unit all the way to each vent. After cleaning, they'll inspect the system and seal any minor leaks found. You'll see the difference in the air quality. Call us today for a straightforward assessment and to schedule your service.
What affects the price
The final cost to clean your air ducts depends on a few straightforward factors. We look at the total square footage of your home, the number of individual vents and returns you have, and how many separate HVAC units are running the system. If your ducts have heavy debris buildup or require specialized attention for mold or deep-seated allergens, that will also influence the labor involved. We don't believe in surprise fees, so we assess your specific layout to ensure the work is done thoroughly without unnecessary add-ons. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
