Anybody have a good vent cleaning company?

[BigJohnson]

Just like the title says. I'm on the south side of Chicago and need my gents cleaned. Previous owners had 2 dogs live in the basement and their hair is getting blown up through the house

A friend of mine just bought a groupon and it ended up being bs. So I'm not looking for nonsense. I want a quote that will stick when the person gets here. Not asking for a ton more money. Thanks

Maybe it is possible to clean your return air duct only? (The duct which the furnace/AC pulls the air in the house from) From what I have been told by the furnace guy who just installed a brand new furnace in our town home is that duct cleaning is a straight rip off. This was coming from someone who also offered that service if requested so no reason to not trust him.

Well by all the vents dust is piling up and I stuck my arm in there and it was filthy. So I would assume they need to be cleaned just like anything else.

And I've seen fires start because of build up in the dryer exhaust so I can certainly saw its nesacery to clean the dryer vent for sure

Wet dry vac and a long hose

Silly question, but have you changed the air filter recently? What type are you using?

There's a guy on here with a 300Z in his sig who suggested someone. Don't remember anything else other than he did a great job.

i used Duct Cleaning Group out of Woodale. Usually they have coupons in the mail flyers. It made a huge difference not only in dust thoughout the house but i was also able to see the difference before and after via an inspection camera. They hook up a huge industrial vac to supply and return by the furnace and at each outlet throughout the house they shove a hose hooked up to an air compressor that flops around and agitates all of the shit in the ducts.

I have an eac filter. I cleaned the pre filters and the eac units. There is no post filter but there is a slot for them. I need to find which ones I need

So anyone have a company name they recommend
