What's in your air ducts?

    Bacteria, Mold, & Mildew

    If left unaddressed, water issues can lead to the growth of mold.

  • Dust Mites Indoor Air Ducts

    Dust Mites, Dead Skin, & Rodent Waste

    A pest or rodent infestation can contaminate your indoor air with their waste.

What are the benefits of air duct cleaning?

indoor air quality.

Indoor air quality is a common concern for homeowners considering air duct cleaning. Your heating and cooling system acts like the lungs of your home, pulling in and circulating air.

Daily activities generate contaminants like dust, pet dander, and chemicals, which are drawn into the HVAC system and recirculated 5 to 7 times a day. Over time, this leads to a buildup of debris in the ductwork.

While dirty air ducts don’t always mean unhealthy air, they can contribute to health issues, especially for people with respiratory conditions, autoimmune disorders, or allergies. Regular air duct cleaning can help improve indoor air quality and create a healthier living environment.

energy savings.

The U.S. Department of Energy states that 25% to 40% of the energy used to heat or cool a home is wasted. Contaminants in your HVAC system make it work harder and shorten its lifespan. Even with filters, the system still gets dirty from regular use.

Cleaning your HVAC system can improve efficiency by removing debris from important components. A clean system uses less energy to maintain your desired temperature, reducing your energy bills. It’s also less likely to break down, extending its lifespan and saving you money over time.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, regular HVAC maintenance, including air duct cleaning, can lower your energy bills by 20% to 30%.

It's important to ensure that any antimicrobial product is registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for use in HVAC systems. Applying antimicrobial treatments is an extra service and is not included in standard air duct cleaning.

Clogged Dryer Vent Cleaning Minnesota

Dryer vent cleaning

Lint buildup is responsible for 27% of dryer-related house fires.


Routine dryer vent maintenance is crucial for safety and optimal performance. Blocked dryer vents pose significant risks, such as fires, carbon monoxide poisoning, and mold infestations.

As lint and dust gather in the vent over time, airflow becomes restricted, leading to higher energy bills and a shorter lifespan for your dryer. Keeping your dryer vent clean and in good working order not only reduces fire hazards but also improves efficiency.

Signs that your dryer needs service:

  • Prolonged drying times

  • Clothes are wrinkled or excessively hot

  • Stopping or shutting off

  • Vibrations or unusual noises

  • A burning odor
