Your energy bill drops. Not by a little—by 20 to 30 percent in most homes, because your HVAC system isn’t fighting through layers of dust and debris anymore.
Your family stops sneezing as much. The allergens that have been circulating through your vents for years—pet dander, pollen, dust mites—get pulled out at the source. You’ll notice the difference within days.
Your dryer works the way it’s supposed to. Clean vents mean clothes dry faster, your machine runs cooler, and you’re not sitting on 33 pounds of accumulated lint that turns into a fire risk every time you hit start. Between 2014 and 2018, dryer fires caused 13 deaths and $238 million in damage. Most of that was preventable.
We’ve been cleaning ducts and restoring homes across Imperial Hills and Greenwood since 2016. We’re IICRC-certified in water damage restoration, applied structural drying, and mold remediation—credentials that matter when you’re trusting someone inside your HVAC system.
Imperial Hills has a lot of older homes. Many were built between 1970 and 1999, with some dating back to the 1940s. That means decades of dust, construction materials, and whatever the previous owners left behind. We’ve seen it all, and we know how to handle it without tearing up your house or leaving a mess.
We answer our phone 24/7. If you call, a real person picks up—not a voicemail, not a call center. And if it’s an emergency, we’re on-site in 60 to 90 minutes.
We start with an inspection. Before we touch anything, we walk through your home, check your HVAC system, and look inside your ducts with a camera. You see what we see. No upsells, no scare tactics—just a clear picture of what’s in there.
Then we seal off your system and use truck-mounted vacuum units that pull up to 16,000 cubic feet per minute. That’s 4 to 40 times more powerful than the portable units most companies use. We’re not just pushing dust around—we’re extracting it.
We clean every vent, return, and supply line. We brush down the interior walls of your ductwork, dislodge buildup, and pull it all out through negative pressure. If you have a dryer vent, we clear that too—from the back of your dryer all the way to the exterior exhaust.
After we’re done, we walk you through what we removed, show you the difference, and answer any questions. Then we follow up two weeks later to make sure everything’s still running smoothly.
Ready to get started?
You get a full-system cleaning—not just the easy-to-reach vents. We clean supply ducts, return ducts, registers, grilles, diffusers, heat exchangers, cooling coils, drip pans, and the blower motor. If air moves through it, we clean it.
You get documentation. We take photos before and after, map out moisture levels if needed, and send you a full report within 24 hours. If you’re filing an insurance claim, we align our pricing with Xactimate and work directly with your adjuster.
You get protection for the rest of your home. We use containment barriers, HEPA filtration, and shoe covers. We don’t track dirt through your house or leave dust floating in rooms we didn’t touch.
Imperial Hills homes deal with humidity swings, freeze-thaw cycles, and older ductwork that wasn’t sealed as tightly as modern systems. That means more opportunities for moisture, mold, and debris to settle in. We account for that. We check for microbial growth, look for gaps or disconnected ducts, and flag anything that could become a bigger problem down the road.
Every three to five years for most homes. That’s the standard recommendation from the National Air Duct Cleaners Association, and it holds up in Imperial Hills.
But there are exceptions. If you have pets, you’re probably looking at every two to three years—pet dander builds up fast and gets pulled into your return vents constantly. If anyone in your home has asthma or allergies, clean ducts make a measurable difference, so you might want to stay on the shorter end of that range.
If you just bought a home in Imperial Hills, especially one built in the ’70s or earlier, get your ducts inspected before you assume they’re fine. You don’t know what the previous owner left behind, and you don’t want to spend your first winter circulating decades of dust.
Yes, if your ducts are dirty enough to restrict airflow. And in most homes we service, they are.
When dust and debris coat your blower motor, heat exchanger, and ductwork, your HVAC system has to work harder to push air through. That means longer run times, higher energy draw, and a bill that creeps up every month. The EPA estimates that 25 to 40 percent of the energy used for heating and cooling gets wasted because of contamination in the system.
After a thorough cleaning, most homeowners see a 20 to 30 percent drop in energy costs. Your system runs more efficiently, cycles less often, and doesn’t have to fight through a layer of buildup every time it kicks on. You’ll feel the difference in airflow, and you’ll see it on your next utility bill.
It’s not an upsell. It’s fire prevention.
Between 2014 and 2018, U.S. fire departments responded to an average of 14,630 home dryer fires every year. Those fires caused 13 deaths, 444 injuries, and $238 million in property damage. The leading cause? Lint buildup.
Your dryer’s lint trap catches some of it, but not all of it. The rest gets pushed into the vent line, where it accumulates over months and years. Eventually, that lint restricts airflow, your dryer overheats, and you’ve got a problem.
Clean vents also mean your dryer works better. Clothes dry 30 percent faster on average, your machine runs cooler, and you’re not wasting energy on extended cycles. If your dryer takes more than one cycle to dry a normal load, your vent is probably clogged.
Look inside your vents. Pull off a register cover and shine a flashlight into the duct. If you see visible dust, debris, or anything that looks like mold, you need a cleaning.
Check your air filter. If it’s clogged after just a few weeks, that’s a sign your ducts are feeding dust back into your system faster than the filter can handle it. You’re treating the symptom, not the source.
Pay attention to your home. If you’re dusting furniture every few days and it still looks dirty, if anyone’s allergies are worse indoors than outdoors, or if you smell something musty when your HVAC kicks on—those are all red flags.
We don’t use scare tactics. When we inspect your ducts, we show you what’s in there with a camera. You see it, you decide. If your ducts are clean, we’ll tell you. If they’re not, you’ll know exactly why we’re recommending a cleaning.
Equipment and thoroughness. The cheap guys show up with a portable vacuum unit that pulls 400 to 4,000 cubic feet per minute. We use truck-mounted units that pull up to 16,000 CFM. That’s the difference between surface cleaning and actually extracting what’s built up in your ducts.
A lot of companies advertise $49 or $99 whole-house cleanings. What they don’t tell you is that price gets you a basic vacuum of your main trunk line—not your supply ducts, not your returns, not your dryer vent. Then they upsell you on everything else, and your final bill ends up between $1,500 and $5,200.
We don’t play that game. You get transparent pricing up front, aligned with Xactimate standards. You get a full-system cleaning—supply ducts, return ducts, registers, grilles, blower motor, coils, and dryer vent if you want it. And you get documentation, follow-up, and a team that’s been doing this since 2016.
It depends on where the mold is and how much of it there is. If you’ve got light surface mold on the interior of your ductwork, a thorough cleaning with HEPA filtration and antimicrobial treatment can take care of it.
If you’ve got active mold growth inside your HVAC system, behind your walls, or in your crawl space, you need mold remediation—not just duct cleaning. Mold spreads through spores, and if the source isn’t addressed, cleaning your ducts won’t solve the problem.
We’re IICRC-certified in mold remediation, so we can handle both. When we inspect your ducts, we’re also looking for signs of moisture intrusion, microbial growth, and conditions that let mold take hold. If we find something, we’ll walk you through what needs to happen and why. If it’s minor, we’ll handle it during the cleaning. If it’s bigger, we’ll give you a separate scope and timeline.
