Air duct cleaning in Madison, done properly.

Most duct cleaners just clean ducts. I find out what is actually in your air first, mould, mycotoxins, whatever is really going on, then I clean the system properly. NADCA and IAQ certified. I answer the phone myself.

Most of what makes a house feel wrong is invisible.

Testing tells you what's actually in the air before I recommend anything. I measure and report. I don't diagnose illness.

Mould & mycotoxins

Moisture inside a duct system or behind a wall lets mould colonise where nobody can see it, and some species release mycotoxins into the air stream.

What testing shows: surface and air sampling identifies which species are present and at what concentration, indoors versus outdoors.

Dust, dander & particulate

Fine particulate recirculates through a return system all day. The EPA notes indoor levels of some pollutants run higher than outdoor levels.

What testing shows: particle counts by size fraction, and where in the system the load is concentrated.

Sick building syndrome

Occupants report headaches, irritation or fatigue that ease when they leave the building, with no single obvious cause.

What testing shows: combined VOC, humidity, CO₂ and particulate readings, room by room, to find measurable contributors.

How I actually do the work

0.3 µm

HEPA filtration of your indoor air for the whole time I'm working.

5,000 CFM

Draw on your system, from two 2,500 CFM motors.

180 PSI

Fresh outside air wash after brushing every square inch.

"Our air duct cleaning service in Madison is the physical and mechanical process of removing contaminants within the network of ducting, plenums, and stacks. The best method for achieving this is placing the system under a vacuum… We then physically wash each vent, register, grill, and diffuser in a environmentally safe degreaser…

While in your home all technicians are required to wear shoe coverings. We also put down floor coverings. We utilize corner guards to protect the corners of your drywall and trim."

When you actually need duct cleaning, and when you don't

The EPA says duct cleaning has never been shown to prevent health problems, and that most homes don't need it done on a schedule. I agree. If you call me and your ducts don't need cleaning, I'll tell you that on the phone, not sell you a job you don't need.

Source: U.S. EPA, Should You Have the Air Ducts in Your Home Cleaned?

Clean them when

  • Visible mould growth inside hard-surface ducts or on other components of the system.
  • Vermin, insects or rodents infesting the ducts.
  • Ducts clogged with excessive debris, or particles actually being released from your registers.
  • After a fire, a flood, or a renovation that put dust into the system.
