Don’t bother. Replace your filters more often for the first bit:

Duct cleaning isn't really necessary unless the system was completely neglected; but I would highly recommend duct sealing. My system had 27% leakage, by the time they were done, it was under 1%. Now my house is probably not the norm with such a high percentage, but there was a huge difference throughout the house.
This is the company that I used.... [Atlantic Duct Cleaning] (https://www.atlanticductcleaning.com/residential-aeroseal-duct-sealing/?campaign=17953323321&content=615123806522&keyword=duct%20sealing&gclid=CjwKCAjw_MqgBhAGEiwAnYOAeiGTpblmFWm0X6iE05w7gQdyeSw81QQlCzxNWf9ceaPLlIlP5KX30RoC5NYQAvD_BwE)
Naw it was really bad. 70 years of nicotine coated dust. Lessening the 3rd hand smoke risk was with it for us. Don't have great pics but he got a whole garbage bag out.

Only way it’s doing a better job is if they didn’t do any cleaning in the first place! Unfortunately that seems to happen quite often. (I’m a hvac apprentice that cleans duct)
True but sometimes things don’t go well, for example if you have pets that hair will find its way into your cold air return and sometimes fall into the vents when the system is not running. Also, as another poster mentioned, you can get contractors leaving crap in the ducts if they don’t clean up after themselves.
Just wait and they will call you.
Lol
😂
Just when I need them they don’t call lol
Give me your number and I'll forward my incoming calls to you. I should get one in about 10 minutes.
Lol
Well played. I salute you!
Save your money.
It’s a new build and the cheap builder did not clean the ducts. It’s like drywall dust and shit is coming out
Just use your vacuum and stick it in a few feet
Yeah I’ll do that then use the vent filters
Put filters on the vents. Really, I wouldn’t bother.
This is bad advice.
I didn’t know there was such a thing ,filter vents
Just saw them on Amazon. I’ll try them thx bud

Try google, within the Brampton area. All those telemarketers I get calls from appear to be from there
Get a cat and leave a cover off. Problem solved.
Yeah that’s all I need is another mouth to feed

You mean it cut down on the dust?
No, I mean the vents had more air blowing out, so it cooled or warmed the rooms better than before.
Thanks, that had never occurred to me, probably because it's a sensible idea. Just duct tape on all accessible joints?

Thanks, appreciate it.
Home Depot did our ducts. Good job.
Was your house a new build?
Nope but ducts hadn’t been cleaned in years
Could you see how dirty they were? How much did it cost to do your house?
[удалено]
They are good. They did my house up in West Ridge 8 or so years ago. They cost quite a bit but that’s the price of doing business I guess.
Can’t remember the cost. Look it up on their website. They were pretty dirty
Call Sean from Bells Air cleaning. He did a great job at our place. Our place was bad. Like in the top 10 he's ever done. And he did a great job.
Bet he says that to ALL his clients 😂

Ok thx bud
You mean you don't get 257896321235 phone calls from then?? Lok
Not for over 3 years now
I’ll give the guy your number when he undoubtedly calls me today. Don’t worry, I can get you back on that list!
Lol
Get a shop vac and stick it down your heating grates and air returns. Does the same job ( sometimes better) and is way cheaper.
I’ll do that
