Total HV/AC Duct System Cleaning

The heating and air conditioning system ducts are generally the first items cleaned and checked following a water or fire damage emergency. Because the system is usually on during the event, it can work to spread soot, smoke, or bacteria throughout the structure—making prompt corrective action imperative.

In general, a professional cleaning and deodorizing treatment is both less costly and more time-saving than system replacement, therefore minimizing property losses.

Crystal Restoration Services offers complete repair and restoration of residential and commercial HV/AC systems following puff-backs, boiler explosions, fires, floods, and similar emergencies.

To prevent further contamination, the air duct system is first back-sealed, the air handling unit is turned off, and filtering material placed over all registers and return vents.
If water damage is a problem, the system is pre-fogged with a specially formulated Crystal Restoration Services fungicide. This kills any mold or mildew that may be present and minimizes the risk of recontamination.
Once the system has been purged of all soot that can be physically removed, a special polymer sealer is fogged throughout the ductwork to ensure that no further fallout occurs. Deodorizers are then forced through the system to remove any lingering odors.
Finally, filter covers are removed and new filters installed. (If there is a possibility of recontamination, Crystal Restoration Services’ crews will install additional filtering devices in the register areas and return vents until reconstruction and total restoration of the building is complete.)
