ABOUT US
About Able Duct Cleaning and the Services We Offer
Air quality is a big concern today - from smog to the quality of air we breathe in our workplaces and homes. ABLE Duct Cleaning has been working in the area of improving air quality for over 20 years.
It is now recognized that anything from allergies to asthma, and a host of other problems, can be caused or aggravated by the quality of air we breathe. With technology today, the sources of these problems are more easily detectable and handled. We are experts in isolating the problems that are causing non-optimum air quality and remedying them.
We are able to do indoor air quality testing in any facility from homes to offices to industrial structures. Microbial testing will determine the air quality and then any steps that need to be taken can be done.
We can provide you with evidence of our current Worker’s Compensation and General Liability Insurance coverage.
We will conduct a thorough inspection of your system PRIOR to performing any work and alert you to any problems.
We will provide you with a means to conduct a visual inspection at any time during the cleaning. (Mirror and flashlight, camera or other remote visual systems.)
We will be cleaning the complete system, including coils and fans.
We offer many services, please call or email us for details.
We would be happy to give you a free estimate.

Why should you have your ducts cleaned?
After 20 years in this business I have come to the conclusion that there are two main reasons for cleaning the air ducts. One is because they are dirty and two is because people are complaining. It is one or the other of these reasons and sometimes it is both. If the ducts are dirty they ought to be cleaned to improve the indoor air quality. If people are complaining and the ducts are not particularly dirty then they still may have to be cleaned to some degree to quiet the situation and avoid legal or workers comp problems.
My preference is that the ducts are dirty and as a matter of good maintenance they are cleaned to help ensure a healthy environment for the occupants. I have seen situations where occupants were complaining and the owner chose to prove he was right by getting air quality testing. The result was that that the owner proved his case, but he still had occupants who believed there was a problem. Money would have been better spent on cleaning the ducts in the first place since they were in fact dirty. I realize that not all of the problems occupants may be having are necessarily related to the duct system and the air quality, but if they believe they are then something effective needs to be done. It is a common fact in my experience in dealing with building maintenance personnel that they spend a portion of there time trying to appease occupant concerns about the indoor environment. If not the ducts then the carpets and if not the carpets then the lights and if not the lights then the paint and who knows what else can be faulted.
The wiser course to take in many cases is to attempt to resolve whatever the complaint is about and in this way at least demonstrate concern for the occupants well being. I have known of cases where situations were ignored and they became legal issues with no real defense because the building owner had not taken any action. This is not the result I wish for.
The way I see it, your AC duct system is like any thing else. It sometimes needs cleaning and maintenance. How often this is necessary is variable, but the question I like to ask is how often do you clean your floor. I am sure the answer is when it is dirty. Well your ducts get dirty and need to be cleaned even though you cannot see them.
Let us take care of your indoor air quality issues.
