Air duct cleaning is an important part of keeping your home clean, fresh and
healthy. According to the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA), air
ducts in a home should be cleaned once every 3 to 5 years.
If you are looking for an air duct cleaning service near you, then here are some tips
to help you locate one.
-
Ask Neighbors
Asking for references from your neighbors is one way to find a good air duct
cleaning service near you. They will be able to help you with leads on
reliable and good companies. -
Ask about Insurance
If you do find an air duct cleaning service near you, ask if they have liability
insurance as well as coverage in the form of workers’ compensation. A
responsible company will have both and will be more than happy to provide
you with proof.
This is something important, since if there is any damage done to your home
during the cleaning process, or if an employee of the air duct cleaning
service is injuring while working on your home, the company’s insurance
will pay for it. -
Ask How Old the Company Is
Check how old the company is. A company that has been around for a
number of years in your neighborhood is more than likely to be good,
otherwise it wouldn’t have survived so long. -
Is the Company an NADCA Member?
This association has a strong code of ethics and so if a company is a member
and is certified by the NADCA, you know you have found a good air duct
cleaning service.
Air duct cleaning is an expensive proposition, so you want to make sure that you
get a really good service to get the job done for you so that you don’t have to
worry about dirty ducts for another 5 years.
