When it comes to cleaning air ducts, vacuum cleaners are the most essential tool for professionals. Vacuum systems, such as truck-mounted or portable, are used to maximize suction power and remove dust and debris from the ducts. Compressed air tools, like blowguns, air whips, and air filters, are also necessary to loosen up persistent debris. Brushes, air captains, fuel brushes, and nebulizers for disinfectants are also used.
To access the inside of the ducts, professionals use basic instruments such as drills and screwdrivers. Visual inspection devices can be used to assess the buildup of debris inside an air duct, while monitoring the cleaning process and evaluating the success of methods can be done with hand mirrors, periscopes, and CCTV cameras. When it comes to choosing a professional for air duct cleaning services, it's important to make sure they have the right tools for the job. Jendco Safety and The Duct Kings offer Nikro gas and electric air duct cleaning packages for residential and commercial air duct cleaning.
Air duct cleaning is a very lucrative business with low overhead costs and a net profit of 50 to 70 percent. However, specialized equipment and duct cleaning experience are essential for thorough work. Before hiring a professional to clean your home's air duct system, ask them about the tools they plan to use.
