Looking to book a duct cleaning service in Toronto? Choosing a duct cleaning company can be daunting, considering the number of duct cleaning providers in the GTA and the warnings about scams by the media. Asking the right questions can weed out duct cleaners that offer sub-par duct cleaning services and add hidden fees when they get their foot in the door.
Here are some very important questions to ask the duct cleaning company you wish to hire:
Are you NADCA trained and certified?
NADAC is the national certification program for air systems cleaning specialist (ASCS), focusing on all aspects of HVAC cleaning systems including practical knowledge, industry codes, standards, principles of HVAC operation, and field experience. Hiring a NADCA certified duct cleaning company in Toronto gives you piece of mind that no damage will be done to your duct system, that the company is industry regulated, that you have an avenue to file an ethics complaint with NADCA in the case of a violation of the code of ethics and all duct cleaners doing the work have received proper training.
Do you carry WSIB and liability insurance?
The duct cleaning process is pretty straight forward and it is rare that accidents or damage to the HVAC duct system happens. But in the chance something goes wrong then making sure ahead of time that the duct cleaning company carries WSIB and liability insurance will give you peace of mind.
What kind of equipment do you use?
The duct cleaning equipment being used make all the difference. Hand held vacuums do not have the capacity to produce the negative air flow suction to properly clean your ducts and vents. When looking for a duct cleaning company make sure that they employ a truck mounted industrial vacuum with a high PSI to create powerful dynamic suction that can clean any size of ducts and vents.
Are your rates all inclusive or do you
charge additional fees?
Be careful of very low prices in the
industry. Quite a few duct cleaning companies offer a low duct cleaning fee to
get their foot in the door. When they are on location they add additional fees
depending on square footage, number of ducts and even hidden fees for hookup,
sealing and sanitization. Ask the company upfront about the number of ducts
their fee covers, the square footage they cover, if there are additional fees, and
what are the payment options.
