How our NATE-certified technicians deliver quality air duct cleaning results from start to finish.
Our Ann Arbor technician inspects your supply and return ducts at multiple access points and registers. We photograph conditions inside the ductwork, check for mold growth, measure dust accumulation, and inspect duct connections for damage or disconnection before cleaning begins.
KIC Refrigeration uses the source removal method recommended by NADCA for duct cleaning in Ann Arbor, MI. Our negative air machine generates 10,000+ CFM of suction at the trunk while our technician agitates each branch with rotating brushes sized to the duct diameter. All debris is captured in a HEPA-filtered unit — nothing recirculates into your home.
We clean the blower housing, evaporator coil surface, return plenum, and supply plenum — the components where dust accumulates most and restricts airflow. A clean coil and blower improve both air quality and system efficiency.
Our Ann Arbor crew performs a post-cleaning camera inspection to document the results. We compare before and after conditions at each access point, install a new filter, and verify that airflow at supply registers has improved — confirming the cleaning made a measurable difference.
Transparent answers about air duct cleaning from our certified technicians.
Professional air duct cleaning in Ann Arbor typically costs $300 to $600 for a standard home with a single HVAC system and 8 to 15 supply registers. Homes with multiple HVAC systems, extensive ductwork runs, or severe contamination from mold, rodents, or post-construction debris may run $600 to $1,200. Be cautious of companies advertising $99 or $149 whole-house duct cleaning specials — legitimate source removal cleaning requires a negative air machine, mechanical agitation tools, and 3 to 5 hours of skilled labor. Lowball pricing usually means a quick run-through with a shop vacuum that leaves most of the contamination in place. KIC Refrigeration provides honest, transparent pricing for genuine duct cleaning in Ann Arbor.
Yes. KIC Refrigeration offers dryer vent cleaning as an add-on service during air duct cleaning appointments in Ann Arbor. Lint-clogged dryer vents are a serious safety hazard — the U.S. Fire Administration reports that clothes dryers cause approximately 2,900 residential fires per year, and lint buildup in the exhaust vent is the leading contributing factor. A clogged vent restricts exhaust airflow, causes the dryer to overheat, increases drying time by 2 to 3 times normal, and dramatically raises fire risk. Our technicians clean the entire vent run from the dryer connection through the exterior wall or roof termination, verify proper airflow with an anemometer, and inspect the vent cap for damage or blockage.
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends professional duct cleaning every 3 to 5 years for most homes. However, several factors can shorten that interval for Ann Arbor properties. Homes with indoor pets that shed hair and dander, smokers, family members with asthma or severe allergies, recent remodeling or construction, or visible mold growth in or around duct registers should be cleaned more frequently — every 2 to 3 years. New construction homes should be cleaned before occupancy to remove accumulated drywall dust, sawdust, paint overspray, and construction debris that settles inside the ductwork during the building process. KIC Refrigeration inspects your Ann Arbor ducts and recommends a cleaning schedule based on actual conditions.
Yes. KIC Refrigeration follows NADCA ACR Standard 2021 — the Assessment, Cleaning, and Restoration standard published by the National Air Duct Cleaners Association — for all duct cleaning work in Ann Arbor, MI. We use the source removal method, which is the only cleaning approach that NADCA and the EPA recognize as effective. This involves connecting a negative air machine to the trunk line to create sustained negative pressure throughout the duct system, then mechanically agitating each branch with rotating brushes and compressed air whips to dislodge contaminants, which are pulled into a sealed HEPA-filtered collection unit. We do not rely on chemical fogging, ozone generators, or sealant sprays as substitutes for proper mechanical cleaning.

"AC tune-up before summer. Technician was early, finished in about forty-five minutes, and gave me a clean bill of health on the system. Easy process."
"Our AC went out on the hottest day of the year and they had someone here within two hours. Fixed it fast and explained everything clearly."
"KIC Refrigeration cleaned our dryer vent and also noticed our exhaust duct was damaged. Fixed both on the same visit. That kind of attention to detail matters."
