Choosing a Duct Cleaner - Things to Look Out For

Nobody would argue that it’s good to keep your commercial premises spotless, but your Duct Work Cleaning is not just a nice to have.  Keeping your ducts clean is a must - eliminating the risk of fire and microbiological contamination, as well as providing a safe working environment.  And controlled by very stringent guidelines set out in the 1974 Health and Safety at Work Act and the 1992 Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Act, your Duct Work Cleaning must be carried out at least once every two years by properly qualified professionals.

So what should you look out for when choosing your duct cleaner?

Qualifications

In order to be compliant, your ducts must be cleaned to HVCA specifications and guidelines, so it’s essential to ensure your Duct Work Cleaning company is fully qualified and accredited.  Membership of the H&VCA can only be achieved via approved qualification or experienced practitioner routes, so it’s a good accreditation to look out for.

As well as being fully HVCA registered, Ingot Services is a member of the Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme and a Safe Contractor Registered firm.

You will also receive a certificate upon completion of your Duct Work Cleaning, as well as advice on an appropriate cleaning schedule.

Experience


Over time ducts gather dust and debris which need to be completely removed.  Not only are these a very real fire hazard, they can also breed bacteria and mould which are then carried out through the duct work with the ‘clean’ air causing serious health issues.

So checking the experience of your Duct Work Cleaning company, how long they have been operating, and investigating their references is a good idea to ensure that the work is done to the highest of standards.
With over 25 years’ experience Ingot Services has an enviable reputation for high quality work. We have clients throughout the UK, and our relationships stand the test of time.
