Although some homes today have ductless HVAC systems, this is a rare situation. The great majority of houses have a ventilation system to handle the circulation of air around the rooms and the distribution of heating and cooling. Dust, dirt, pet dander, lint, and other particles also circulate in the air, and much of it gets caught in the ducts. The build-up will eventually be large enough to create trouble for your home. When that happens, you’ll need to contact professionals for duct cleaning services.
Baxter Comfort Solutions recommends that you arrange for duct cleaning with our expert team every few years, or any time you start to notice a drop in HVAC efficiency. We have the tools and training necessary to clean your ventilation system so you can enjoy peak operation from the heating and cooling system. Get in touch with us for service in Baxter, IA or elsewhere in the “golden circle” between Ames, Des Moines, Newton, and Marshalltown.
Absolutely! Because ducts are hidden from sight, it’s easy to imagine that nothing can go wrong with them. But the gradual accumulation of dust, lint, and other debris along the duct walls can lead to many issues affecting comfort, health, and energy efficiency in your home. Professional duct cleaning helps prevent the following:
If you started to imagine that you could take care of duct cleaning yourself with the long hose of vacuum cleaner, we’ve got bad news and good news. The bad news is that you cannot clean your ducts with so simple a solution. The good news is that you have a much better, thorough solution only a phone call away: Baxter Comfort Solutions has the equipment and technicians to provide you with a complete duct cleaning. Our team seals off the entire ventilation system and then uses power vacuums to change the pressure inside the ducts; this agitates debris from the duct walls and makes it easier for us to collect it all. We also put special brushes on hoses to target specific areas to make sure you receive the most complete cleaning possible.
If you’ve never scheduled ductwork cleaning before, then your home is probably overdue for it! Contact us today to arrange for this service in Baxter, IA or the surrounding areas.
When it comes to being smart with HVAC, air duct cleaning is one of the best investments you can make. As time goes on, the walls of your AC or furnace system become covered in layers of dust and allergens. These not only lead to discomfort for people breathing the air but can also put an undue burden on your HVAC systems.
Fortunately, if you live in Jasper County, you have a duct cleaning expert in your backyard. Read on for more information about the services we provide and the benefits of taking a brush to your ventilation.
Indoor air quality is a big problem in the 21st century, both here and abroad. As homes become better sealed against the elements, the importance of having clean air inside your home increases. Without even knowing it, your air duct system could be contaminated with particulates that are harmful to you and your family.
Each time the HVAC system turns on, it can circulate dust, dust mites, animal dander, pollen, and bacteria throughout the air inside your home. Below are a few statistics that help drive home the IAQ crisis that people in Newton and other parts of the world face:
Are you unhappy with the air quality in your home? Are those seasonal allergies getting worse? In Newton, a lack of duct cleaning can turn your home into a dust and allergen magnet, making it a never-ending chore to keep your living space clean. But that's just one benefit of getting your ventilation system regularly scrubbed:

Before getting started, our technician will take a moment to introduce him or herself. They will then take a quick tour of your home. This will allow them to pinpoint the registers. Once that's done, he or she will get to work.
We scrub away the built-up dirt and debris with a rotary brush. An attached vacuum sucks up what is shed. To get to your air ducts, the tech removes each register to allow him or her to insert the vacuum hose. After cleaning each branch, the registers are reattached.
Getting access to your main air duct trunk lines can involve removing an end cap or making an 'access opening' which is repaired and sealed after the cleaning is done. If we find any issues with your ductwork, we will also make recommendations on repairing them.

It typically takes between four and six hours to clean ducts from start to finish. This number is about the average we see for a home with around 15 registers. Depending on the number of technicians present and the state of your HVAC systems, this time can vary widely. If time is of concern, let our technician know when he or she arrives.
Follow your instincts. If a price seems 'too good to be true', it probably is. Duct cleaning is hard, time-consuming work and, as with anything in life, you get what you pay for. This kind of price is either a 'come-on' that gets them in the door where they will up-sell you or a sign that the job won't be done very well. It's always better to deal with a company that you know and that will stand by their work. With Baxter Comfort Solutions's Satisfaction Guarantee, we're not happy until you are!
Most experts recommend cleaning your ducts every three to five years. But there are a few reasons you might want to do so sooner. We suggest getting it done as soon as you move in to a new home. This allows you to start things off on the right foot. It's also a good idea to get it done after any major remodeling. Otherwise, the dust and debris will come back to haunt you for years to come. Pet owners and those with asthma will also want to stay closer to the 3-year mark.
Are you tired of fighting dust and scheduling multiple duct cleaning visits in a short time frame? Then, you'll want to take some steps. First, you'll want to regularly vacuum and sweep your space. You should also use microfiber dusters where possible. To keep dirt from aggregating, you'll also want to avoid closing and opening individual ducts. Indoor air purifiers and humidifiers can also make it easier to keep your HVAC system tide.
