Dryer Vent Cleaning
If your ducts are poorly maintained they are likely contributing to unhealthy air and higher energy bills. This reason is why air duct cleaning is so important. Every time an unclean system activates, you breathe dirt, dust, allergens and bacteria.
The main reason why HVAC systems need to be cleaned is because they accumulate dust!
- Pet shed/dander, recent home renovations, moving into a new home (congrats!), pollen or allergy producing fauna nearby, current or a previous smoker, sensitive populations (young children and the elderly), home schoolers, stay at or work from home. So many reasons for this to be on our radars and, more importantly, to do something about it.
If you find yourself nodding to these points, then it is likely that you will need an HVAC system cleaning.
The dirt that settles down in the ducts creates a breeding ground for molds, mildew and other harmful elements to cultivate.
As a member of the International Air Quality Association (IAQA) we know indications of IAQ problems in a home and need for HVAC duct cleaning services.
- Excessive dust / “stuffy" rooms, some rooms feel hot or cold and the rest of the house feels comfortable, moisture on window panes, a mildew (musty) smell in your home, family members often sneeze.

What is it and What Does it Do?
AirWell's Air Duct Disinfecting Service utilizes a disinfectant as well as a deodorizer that kills bacteria, viruses, fungus, mold, and mildew, in addition to eliminating odors.
Who Needs It?
- Anybody with health concerns triggered by any of the above listed items, e.g. anyone with asthma allergies or weak immune systems.
- Anyone who has had water damage.
- Anyone trying to eliminate foul odors.
- Anyone who has had an animal in their system.
How is it Applied?
- The product is fogged directly into the duct system. We utilize a special fogger system that provides just the right amount of mist to coat the interior of your entire duct system.
What’s the Difference Between the
Disinfecting Service and the Cleaning Service?
- Our air duct cleaning service removes contaminates from the system with mechanical agitation through whipping and vacuuming, which removes contaminants from the system using only air. Our air duct disinfecting treatment is applied after a cleaning to disinfect the duct system.
Air Filter Replacement Service
One of the most overlooked home maintenance tasks is replacing the air filter in your furnace. Many people go extended periods of time without even thinking about it. Air filters play an important role in maintaining the quality of the air in your home or business - when its dirty, your air is dirty. This is one of those things that is out of sight and out of mind but not without consequence if you let them go too long. You have a lot of things to worry about and remembering to change the furnace air filter is no longer one of them.
Benefits
An air filter’s job is to protect your furnace and improve indoor air quality by removing all allergens, dust,
debris, and pollutants that your system takes in. If left unattended, over time the filter builds up a heavy amount of debris and makes your entire system work harder and cycle much more frequently. This requires more energy to keep the air moving, resulting in even higher utility bills.
To ensure peak efficiency of your system it is important that your filter be changed on a regular basis.
Process
Just like with our air duct or dryer vent cleaning services, we believe communication is very important. We
will inform you of what you should expect from the process, when our technician will arrive, and so on.
- Dirty filters are removed and placed directly into containment bags
- We will take the old filter with us and handle disposal.
- Install new, properly sized, air filter that is made in the USA.
