Air duct cleaning is crucial in order to keep the air you are breathing clean. We recommend to get the air ducts cleaned at least once a year, usually right before the summer. People who suffer from allergies or asthma are recommended to clean their air ducts even twice a year at least since they are a lot more sensitive to the dust that surfaces the air of their home. The process in which this cleaning is done is by attaching a 3 ton HEPA vacuum machine to the main supply vent of the home. While this machine is running, we go to each individual vent with a positive air pressure compressor, creating a push and pull affect.

There are various different factors that are considered when installing a new A/C unit. Firstly, it is important to locate where the unit is situated. It can either be on the roof, outside the house, and even in the closet. If the unit is located on the roof then a crane will definitely need to be considered in order to proceed with the installation. Depending on the city which the unit is being installed, it may be possible that a permit will be needed in order to legally install the unit on that property, or else a fine will be issued.
