Air Duct Cleaning

​Air Duct Cleaning is the process of removing dirt, contaminants, and debris that have built up over time from inside the ducts associated with your home's furnace or air handler. The process utilizes a variety of tools, including high-powered vacuums (to create negative pressure), agitators (to loosen debris) and air wands and air snakes (to move debris toward the vacuum). Various tiers of service are available, depending on a variety of conditions, including time passed since the previous cleaning, whether animals are present in the home, whether any construction or remodeling has taken place, etc. 

Because air ducts are the conduit through which all the air in your home eventually passes, their cleanliness has a direct impact on indoor air quality. Air duct cleaning increases air flow within the HVAC system, helping to improve the efficiency of the system by distributing air throughout the house more quickly and with less effort. Regular cleaning of the air ducts also minimizes dust and debris entering the furnace, thereby helping to prevent clogging of the unit.

Ultimate Air Duct Cleaning
​$399.95

​This top-level cleaning is ideal for those in need of a completely fresh start—whether the ducts have never been cleaned (or if it's been a decade or more), or it's a new construction/newly remodeled home. It entails the insertion of a Viper Microline into every vent, where the Viper Clean Sweep System is later utilized to propel everything toward the vacuum. Every inch of the ductwork surface is contacted. Includes a furnace cleaning as part of the package. (Flat rate price up to 2500 sq. ft. Add $40 for ea. additional 500 sq ft.) Learn more.

This powerful midlevel cleaning best suited for homes that haven't been cleaned within the last 4-7 years (or those with more-than-average buildup due to pets or small projects around the home). This cleaning includes the standard process of using high-pressured air wands to clean all supply and return vents and branch lines, with the addition of the Viper Clean Sweep System utilized on the main trunk lines. (Flat rate price up to 2500 sq. ft. Add $20 for ea. additional 500 sq ft.) Learn more.

Online scheduling is not available for this service. Please call, text, or email to schedule.

Furnace Cleaning

Regular cleaning is an integral part of your furnace's maintenance. Dirt is its number-one enemy, decreasing efficiency and air flow. Although the air entering your furnace passes through a filter, the filter cannot possibly remove all debris, and over time its tiny holes become choked with dirt. Additionally, the internal parts of the furnace become dirty themselves, and this dirt gets caught up in the system and blown back into your home. ​​Thus a poorly maintained furnace can result in harmful contaminants circulating throughout your home, including household dust​, pet dander, debris, pathogens, allergens, chemicals, and dust mites

Furnace Cleaning 
$99.95

We'll clean the heat exchanger, combustion chamber, burners, jets, pilot light, blower motor, fan, and filter. We'll check the central air evaporator coil (A-coil) for proper air flow, check contacts and all wiring, check blower motor for proper functioning, and check the ignitor and flame sensor for wear. Learn more.
​
Please note that we do not clean oil-burning appliances or their associated flues. We do not clean outdoor furnaces.

Flue Cleaning

As with fireplaces, appliances such as furnaces, boilers, and water heaters need their associated flues cleaned regularly to remove blockages and buildup. Blockages are often caused by plant debris and nesting animals, especially in the case of uncapped flues. Utility flue cleaning improves draft and minimizes the risk of harmful gases backing up into your home.

Flue Cleaning
$199.95*

The technician will create access by detaching the flue from the top of the appliance and inserting an industrial vacuum, creating negative pressure. The flue itself is cleaned utilizing either a rod with adjustable brushes, a tentacled air whip, or a retractable chimney cleaning system such as the Viper GFK, depending on the type of buildup or clog. The job is finalized by confirming that a flue cap is in place, and if not, recommending that one be installed. Learn more.

Please note that we do not clean oil-burning appliances or their associated flues. We do not clean outdoor furnaces.

​*Please note that a $50 rooftop charge may also apply if technician needs to remove any blockages from the top of the flue.

Chimney Services

Chimney maintenance is important in terms of protecting your investment and maintaining the value of your home, and for ensuring your family's safety and comfort. ​Chimney sweeping services remove soot, level 1 creosote buildup, and any lightweight obstructions (such as small bird's nests) from the inside of the chimney flue. ​Every chimney needs a cap. Without one, the interior of your chimney is subject to deterioration from rain, snow, down drafts, airborne sparks/embers, and other elements. A chimney cap also prevents birds, rodents, and other wildlife from entering your chimney. Chimney repair services correct conditions of damage and deterioration, restoring and helping to maintain structural integrity. ​

Chimney Sweeping 
starting from $149.95

The technician will sweep (traditional open wood-burning) fireplace chimney flue free of creosote buildup, remove debris with HEPA-filter vacuum, and conduct a Level 1 inspection to look for repair issues or potential hazards. Learn more.

Dryer Vent Cleaning

Dryer lint is very combustible, and the combination of a dryer line clogged with lint and the sustained blast of hot air from your dryer is an extreme fire hazard. Cleaning the dryer vent line regularly is critical to home fire safety. Lint buildup occurs in many different areas of the dryer itself and throughout the venting system. In addition to fire risk, this buildup results in the unit having to work harder and longer to appropriately perform its function, decreasing energy efficiency. A clean and unobstructed dryer vent results in increased energy efficiency, decreased risk of fire from lint buildup, and decreased drying time as  a result of increased air flow.

Dryer Vent Cleaning 
$99.95

We'll clean the dryer ducting system, and outside vent ​(a $50 surcharge will apply if dryer vents above the first floor or onto the roof). Learn more.

Online scheduling available for ground level dryer vents only. If your vent is located above the first floor, please call, text, or email to schedule.
