Mr. Schofield recalls an old whiskey botâ€" tle, a wallet, dead animals, magazines, news papers dated as far back as the 1940s, toys and jewellery being sucked from dirty duct work. "It‘s horrible what‘s in there," he says. After the ducts are cleaned, they are sprayed with a disinfectant to kill bacteria and fungae that may have accumulated over the years. It‘s recommended that home ductwork be cleaned at least once every four years. A thorough home cleaning might not have the attraction or glamour that redecoratâ€" ing has, but a clean home will be a more pleasant and healthier place to live.

Mr. Schofield says that his workers clean ducts by opening a large hole in one of the basement ducts. A 28â€"foot extension broom is then used to scrape the sidewalls of all the ducts before the dirt is sucked out by an industrial vacuum. An interesting assortment of objects have been removed fi'om ductwork over the years. The end result is cleaner air, less inflamed allergies, elimination of dust mites and higher furnace efficiency. Be aware of contractors who boast huge savings on your fuel bill. This won‘t happen says Mr. Schofield. However, your furnace will be able to work easier and in the long run, you‘ll save money by extending the life of your furnace.
