Step 1 - Inspection
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We
inspect your system before work
begins to determine accessibility
with our two man certified crew,
We turn the furnace blower/air
handler on and off to make sure that
it is running properly and each
system takes approximately one and a
half to two hours
(3-4 man hours) to
clean.
|
|
|
|
|
Step 2 -
Protect Your Property
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We make
sure that our equipment is
exhausted outside of your home
and will wear new shoe covers at
your request.
|
|
|
|
|
Step 3 -
The Supply & Returns are Zoned
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
supply and return sides are
separated
by removing the furnace filter
and wrapping it in a protective
material
and an access hole is cut in
the main trunk line to connect the
negative air machine.
|
|
|
|
|
Step 4 - The HVAC
System is Placed
Under Continuous Negative
Pressure
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Registers
are sealed which creates high
velocity air movement within the
supply ductwork to transport
loosened dirt and contaminants
out of the ductwork and into the
vacuum's filtration/collection
system.
|
|
|
|
|
Step 5 -
Breaking Contaminants Loose
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We then access your registers/vent
openings and use air compression and/or our brush auger to move debris down
towards the trunk line.
|
|
|
|
|
Step 6 - The Main Duct
Runs are Cleaned.
|
 |
|
Each and
every trunk and plenum are cleaned
on both the supply (heat) and return
(cold air) side of your system.
Agitation
Devices are used to dislodge debris
accumulated on surfaces
and remove
any contaminants from the system.
|
|
|
|
|
Step
7 - Return Side
|
|
|
|
 |
|
Once the supply side of the
system has been completely cleaned,
the return duct system is cleaned
using the same method.
|
|
|
|
|
Step
8 - Furnace Interior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
cleaning is completed with vacuuming
the furnace cabinet,
and changing the customer provided
filter.
|
|
|
|
|
Step 9 - Sealing Up
Your System
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once the entire cleaning process
is completed, all access holes are
completely closed and cover plates
are installed over the access holes.
All seals are removed from the
registers. Finally, we leave your
home as we found it. There is no
mess left for you to clean and
everything is returned to its
original location
|
|
|
|
|
Step 10 - Post
Inspection Check List
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After the process is completed the
technician will make sure everything
is cleaned and operating correctly.
|
|
|
|
FYI: If you have any vents hidden
behind furniture please have the
furniture pulled out or advise the
technician on the day of service.
Our techs will not move heavy items.
If you are having dryer vent
cleaning done, do not use your dryer
prior to us arriving (we do not
clean inside the dryer). Our 8"
round hoses need to come through
either a window or door closest to
your trunk lines
*Air Duct Pros, Inc.
does not remove the fan and/or coil in the cleaning process in
accordance with our state laws and we are not responsible for
peeling or chipping of paint due to
removal of vent covers. |
