Duct Cleaning
VENTCORP is known for the most advanced cleaning methods and equipment available in Michigan and our duct cleaning process stays true to that. “Commercial Grade,” truck-mounted vacuums with the ability to be revved up to extremely high CFMs and 38 Hepa vacuum bags! Along with the powerful vacuum units, we use huge air compressors capable of blasting out air at 200 PSI. Ventcorp has internal collector bags that stay dry and strong in wind, rain and snow. As a local Michigan duct cleaning company, our equipment is made for Michigan weather and positioned for precise maintenance and up keep.NADCA has very strict standards all members must follow. It’s important to know that there are not a lot of different ways that air ducts can be cleaned. The following steps should be followed to obtain a proper air duct cleaning:
1. First we come out with a large, truck-mounted vacuum, bring in an 8-inch hose and attach it to the two main trunk lines that run off your furnace. This is done by cutting 8-inch access holes into the trunks. When the cleaning is complete, we patch it with a 10×10 piece of sheet metal and sheet metal screws.
2. We then start up the engines, outside of your home and create a negative air pressure, or a suction, throughout the entire house so all the vents are sucking air for the duration of the cleaning; this is a very important step that prevents dirt from entering your home. We extract the dirt directly to our trucks.
3. We then take a long viper rod, attached to an air compressor on the truck, and send it down each vent. The viper rod blasts the dirt off the walls of the ducts, using special attachments, sending all the dirt in the direction of the suction.
4. The returns or intake vents, which are the dirtiest part of the system, are then cleaned in the same way. It is not necessary to remove your supply registers or return air grills. Ventcorp utilizes the latest in vent cleaning technology. We have specialized equipment, designed to fit through the supply registers and return air grills, which assist with the cleaning process.
5. After all the ducts have been cleaned, we go back to the main trunk line and clean each one separately, pushing all the dirt and debris directly from your system into our trucks.
We finish by cleaning the plenum and return riser. We clean the entire air conveyance system with our duct cleaning process!
