In Michigan the average sized home is roughly 1800 sq feet containing one furnace. This size home (if cleaned by Amistee) should take roughly 2-3 hours to clean with two technicians.

It is simple, we care.

Inferior equipment such as a shop vac or portable equipment mounted in a trailer or van may add to the cleaning time. Training is key to the proper cleaning. At Amistee we are serious about air duct cleaning and that is why training and experience are crucial. If you hire a company that does not have the proper training this may also add to the cleaning time.
