Video-verified · Sanitizing included
Every breath of air in your home passes through the ductwork — and most ductwork has never been cleaned since the day it was installed. We clean it properly and prove it on camera.
Drag to compare
These are real customer ducts from local homes — not stock photos. The left slider shows a flex run coated in years of matted dust; the right shows a supply line before and after our negative-air process. This is the difference your lungs are asking about.
What comes out of Fox Valley ductwork is remarkably consistent: drywall dust from renovations, pet hair, insulation fragments, cobwebs, and debris dating to the home’s construction. Once it is out, it stays out for years.
The method
The camera goes in before anything else. You see your system’s actual condition on screen — no imagination required.
A high-powered vacuum puts the whole system under negative pressure — debris has exactly one exit: the sealed collector.
Rotary brushes and air whips work each supply and return, breaking loose years of matted buildup toward the vacuum.
Surfaces get sanitized, registers go back on, and the camera goes back in. You watch the after footage before we pack up.
What we find
We have pulled entire chunks of insulation out of supply runs, found returns matted with a decade of lint and pet hair, and opened trunk lines carpeted in construction debris from renovations finished years earlier. Ductwork is out of sight, and it pays the price.
Recognize a few of these? The camera will tell us the rest.

Good to know
Method and proof. We do source-removal cleaning — negative-air vacuum containment on the trunk lines while rotary brushes and air whips agitate every branch run — not a shop-vac at the register faces. And every job is bookended with video inspection, so you see the before and the after instead of taking anyone's word.
Every 3–5 years suits most homes here — sooner after a renovation, with multiple pets, or when allergies flare indoors. The after-video from each cleaning shows exactly where your system stands and when the clock should restart.
Yes. After the mechanical cleaning, duct surfaces are treated with sanitizer as part of the service — not sold as a mystery add-on at the kitchen table.
No — containment is the entire point of the method. The system is under negative pressure while we work, so dislodged debris travels into the sealed collector, not your rooms. Floors are protected and we clean up completely.
Yes, and you should — bundling air duct and dryer vent cleaning saves 15% through November 30, 2026, and handles your home's entire airflow system in one visit.
Video inspection included on every job — before and after.
