Frederick, MD
I really liked how they use a video camera to show you the dust build up inside my air conditioner ducts. It was gross to think I was breathing that stuff.
out of sight out of mind, except when my allergies kick in.

Stupendous job. I have severe allergies and I am constantly cleaning and dusting to keep control of them. I had no idea that my air vents were that dirty or could even hold that much dust and dirt. Since having had them cleaned, my dusting has been cut in half and am breathing much easier. Very Pleased!
These guys did a good job at my home. You can see the dirt and lint inside my air duct
