Ottawa's most thorough duct cleaning since 1970. Our Rotobrush technology makes full contact with every surface — not just a quick vacuum job.
A mechanical rotating brush that makes full contact with every duct surface, scrubbing away built-up debris while simultaneously vacuuming it out.
Companies that finish in 1–2 hours are only vacuuming. Our thorough scrub takes the time it deserves — every duct, every vent.
We hold a gas fitter's license as required by Ontario — anyone touching your furnace during duct cleaning must be licensed. Always ask.

Our slogan is "We Don't SUCK — We SCRUB." To be fair, that's not entirely accurate. We actually do both — with our Rotobrush technology.
The Rotobrush gets right into every nook and cranny of your ducts and physically scrubs away dust & debris. But it also vacuums up the loosened dirt at the same time, leaving your ductwork truly clean and your HVAC system fully optimized.
Most companies use air pressure alone — blasting debris loose and hoping the vacuum catches it. We make full mechanical contact with the duct walls. That's why our results last twice as long.
We're looking for customers, not just sales. We want to build a relationship you can trust.

Ontario law requires a gas fitter's license to work on equipment connected to your furnace. We hold it — most Ottawa duct cleaners don't. Always ask.
Bundle your furnace cleaning with your duct scrub for a better price — and make sure no leftover debris blows back into your freshly cleaned ducts.
We explain every step, every rate, every option — clearly and honestly. No pressure, no hidden upsells.
Not all duct cleaning is created equal. Here's why our method leaves ducts cleaner — and keeps them cleaner, longer.
Most Ottawa homes need duct cleaning every 3–5 years. Here are the signs it's time to book.
Pet hair and dander accumulate quickly in ductwork — especially heavy-shedding dogs or cats. If you have multiple pets, clean more often.
Drywall dust, sawdust, and construction debris find their way into your ducts during any renovation. Always clean after major renos.
If family members are sneezing more or experiencing worse allergy symptoms indoors, dirty ducts may be recirculating allergens and dust.
You don't know how the previous owners lived. Starting fresh with clean ducts means you're breathing your own clean air from day one.
Visible dust buildup around your vents and registers is a clear sign that your ducts are full and your system is circulating that dust through your home.
Even in clean homes, 5 years of normal life accumulates enough dust and debris to warrant a professional scrub. When in doubt, book it.
We don't cut corners. Every job follows the same thorough process — from inspection to final check.
We assess your full ductwork and ventilation system before touching anything.

It depends on your home. Key factors: Do you have pets? How many? Are there smokers? Have you recently renovated? Are you moving into a new home? As a general rule of thumb, every 3–5 years is appropriate. Homes with heavy shedding pets or smokers may need it more frequently.
Most systems use air pressure to blow debris loose, then vacuum it up. This works — but it never removes the dust that's stuck to the duct walls. Our Rotobrush makes full mechanical contact and physically scrubs the surface while simultaneously vacuuming. That's twice as effective, and results last twice as long.
Most companies will be in and out of your home in 1–2 hours. We need 4–6 hours to do the same job properly. Quality cannot be rushed. You're paying for a thorough scrub that lasts 3–5 years — not a quick vacuum that needs redoing in a year or two. Many customers tell us it ends up being cheaper in the long run.
You don't have to — but we strongly recommend it. When you clean your ducts without cleaning the furnace, dust left inside the furnace blower can blow right back into your freshly scrubbed ducts. Doing both at once gives you a better combined price and ensures a truly clean system from start to finish.
Yes — Ontario requires a Gas Fitter's License for anyone who works on equipment connected to your gas furnace. During duct cleaning, our technicians work inside the furnace compartment. For your safety, you should never allow an unlicensed person to do this. We are fully licensed and insured. Always ask any duct cleaner to show their license before they start.
No. We protect your floors and work areas before we begin, and our Rotobrush system scrubs and vacuums simultaneously — so debris is captured at the source. We do a full clean-up when we're done, and our goal is always to leave your home cleaner than we found it.
