I manage a rental unit for a family friend. The new tenants are a couple with a baby that moved in on the 15th. They're requesting that all the a/c vents/ducts be professionally cleaned because their baby has been congested since moving in. The owner bought the place around 5-6 years ago & has never had them cleaned. The tenants found a company that does it fairly cheaply ($9/vent), but the owner doesn't want to pay for it (it would run them less than $75).
I have some questions/concerns:
-
The tenants did some price checking & this company was by far the cheapest. I'm a little worried about that. Does the price sounds unusually low?
-
I've read differing opinions on whether duct cleaning even makes a difference in air quality. Opinions?
-
I've read that a lot of a/c vent/duct cleaners are scammy & will come up with scary sounding bullshit to ratchet up the price. Does anyone have any experience with this & advice on how to avoid it?
Any additional help/advice appreciated.
