ATLANTA DUCT CLEANERS/INDOOR AIR QUALITY COMPANIES

Read our reviews on Atlanta duct cleaners and indoor air quality companies

Duct cleaning

Professional duct cleaning is an integral part of solving indoor air quality problems.  The EPA endorses "source removal" techniques for cleaning ducts.  These techniques utilize special vacuum equipment, brushes, and compressed air to agitate the dirt in the ducts.  Properly cleaning air ducts is not a quick job.  It usually takes between five and ten minutes per vent opening, or a total of four to eight man-hours for an average house.  Beware of duct cleaners attempting to use portable shop-vac style cleaners.  The duct cleaner should use equipment recognized by the National Air Duct Cleaning Association (NADCA).  This equipment includes either a truck-mounted system or a portable negative air power vacuum equipped with HEPA filters.  A reputable professional will use the correct equipment, take the required time to do the job right, be licensed, not damage your system during the cleaning process, and clean both the ducts and the furnace/air conditioner components.

Air quality companies

Different types of companies handle different types of indoor air quality issues.  Automatic whole-house humidifiers and air filtration and purification systems are often sold and installed by air conditioning and heating contractors.  (See the air conditioning & heating contractors section for more information.)  Mold removal is often handled by carpet cleaners.  (See the carpet & upholstery cleaners section for more information.)  Both The Mad Hatter Air Duct Cleaning & Chimney Sweep and Air Quality Systems offer duct cleaning and many other indoor air quality services.

These companies, like any company working at the home, should carry both workers’ compensation and liability insurance. Click here for additional information on insurance.
