I have so much dust in my house! Will cleaning the ducts help?
It sure will! Each time that the system turns on, whether to heat or cool the house, contaminants inside the ducts are blown out into the house. Cleaning the ductwork will remove all of the debris and dust from the system, so all that blows out is air!

Can I clean my own ducts?
Many of us are do-it-yourselfers, but this is one job that needs to be left to the professionals. Using your personal vacuum allows you to reach 10% or less of the ducts.
The machine used by Guarantee System is highly specialized to allow us to reach 100% of the system.
