Allergen Removal from Home, especially in humid regions like Texas, pollen, pet dander, and other microbes can proliferate in an air duct system and regularly circulate, which can be disruptive to those with sensitive respiratory systems. Thorough air duct servicing can mean the difference between a perpetually stuffy nose and a good night’s sleep.

Why does your home require a professional air duct cleaning? Here’s some ways you will benefit from our services, and why you should not attempt to clean your air duct yourself.

-Improved Airflow, Decreased Energy Bills
Unfortunately, not all homes have properly installed and sealed air duct systems; these leaks in your ventilation can cause your heating and cooling systems to work harder, increasing energy costs. Brandt A/C & Heating will identify any problem areas and seal them, saving you money on your energy bill.

-Better Home Hygiene
Claims of air duct cleaning being essential to better health can be dubious – unless there is a clear presence of mold in your air duct system. Our cleaning services will identify and eradicate mold, protecting you and those you come in contact with from airborne infections.

Curious about our air duct cleaning process? At Brandt A/C & Heating, we are completely transparent with you at every step, including before and after pictures included with your invoice.

Step One – Ventilation System Inspection
All service calls begin with an inspection, and our certified technicians start their inspection from the main ventilation unit in the attic. This starts with the plenum, the air distributor that feeds the rest of the ventilation system, and includes inspection of the ducts, coils, the return air box, the drain line drip pans underneath the coils, the blower, and the register covers. This should take 15-30 minutes, depending on the size of your ventilation system.

Step Two – Estimation and Scheduling
Depending on the findings of the inspection, the technician will provide an estimate for necessary services, and can perform the ventilation system restoration either on the spot or at a later scheduled time.

Step Three – Initial Ventilation System Cleaning
To begin the cleaning process, our technicians will disassemble each of the aforementioned parts of the ventilation system (plenum, coil, et al) and use special solutions to rid the parts of microbes.

Step Four – HEPA Vacuum Cleaning
Once the surface parts are cleaned, the technician will use a portable vacuum to remove any excess water and particles from the main attic unit; a rotor brush is then attached to the vacuum to dislodge particles from the plenum and the register boxes.

Step Five – Finishing Touches
Once microbes have been removed from your home, our technicians will sanitize the register covers and seal any leaks in your ventilation system. The process usually takes 2-3 hours, with more complex systems requiring more time.
