TOPIC: Duct cleaning and CO detectors

Re: Duct cleaning and CO detectors 15 years 5 months ago #3671

Maybe it's a regional thing, but I find it hard to believe that it would cost  $300-$400 in NYC to clean the ductwork in a n average home. The company I used to work for bought a duct cleaning system just before I left. I also doubt that they would have bothered for that amount.

Perhaps I will inquire.

I have an annual service on my HVAC system, two units, and it costs $160.  That's two visits, fall and spring.  I doubt you could find that price in NYC either!!

Some clients of mine just had their ducts cleaned, three-level townhouse, one system- and it cost $300 including fungal spray into the ducts after the cleaning.

Like I said, I think I am going to try to get some more information on the subject. It just seems like a small amount to pay when you take into consideration purchasing the equipment, supplies, salaries, insurance, vehicle insurance, advertising, office support, etc, etc.

I am considering getting into mold remediation and thought about duct cleaning.

We had ours done about a year after we moved in.  They used the rotating brush and vacuum so they did not have to cut holes in the plenum.  They charged by the register.  I think they ran a special of $9 per.  Had them sprayed with the fungicide also.  I think total cost for the house was about $200.  They also sold me on electro-static air filters at the return air vents.  Once the system was clean, it was easiest to keep the whole thing clean by filtering all the air before it got to the equipment.

There is nothing sweeter than the smell of fresh cut grass on a baseball infield, the click of a wooden bat and the taste of a hot dog at a warm sunny daytime double-header.
