Our services have often been complimented to be beyond visual inspection and quick cleaning. We use a three-level cleaning process.

The process begins with an ultra-flexible soft brush for safer lint removal. Unlike most “fast” services out there, we take utmost car of handling the lint as it is highly flammable. The lint is safely collected and sealed for disposal immediately. The second step involves an air compressor for cleaning out the residuals of the lint in the insides and more intricate parts of the hose. Lastly, we clean the back, insides and underneath of the air dryer vent duct areas to make sure the entire vent is clean, free of obstructions and safe to use. We have strict mandates for servicing our equipment so topmost service is delivered. We also offer other augmented cleaning services for air duct cleaning and HVAC triage / consulting.
