QUESTIONS

Questions from Hunterdon County homeowners

Plain answers about ducts, dryer vents, chimneys and indoor air, written for the houses of Readington and the rest of Hunterdon County.

Which towns does the Readington location serve?

Flemington and Raritan Township, the Town of Clinton and Clinton Township, Tewksbury, High Bridge, Lebanon Township, East Amwell and Delaware Township, and Readington itself with Whitehouse Station, Three Bridges and Stanton. For another Hunterdon town, call and the office will say whether the crew can come.

When can the crew come?

Visits are booked 8 AM to 8 PM, 7 days a week. Evenings and weekends inside those hours suit a lot of working households, so ask for them when you call.

How do I get a free estimate?

Use the estimate form or call (848) 220-1635; a sentence on the town, the service and the age of the house is enough to start. The estimate costs nothing, and you owe nothing until you book the work.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes, on both counts: New Jersey Home Improvement Contractor 13VH13654300, fully insured, and veteran owned as well. Landlords and associations can ask for a certificate of insurance before the visit.

Our house heats with a boiler. Do we even have ducts?

Only if central air was added, which in an older farmhouse usually means an attic air handler that feeds registers in the ceilings. Those runs can be cleaned, repaired or extended like any others, and the boiler's own flue is a job for chimney cleaning.

Does oil heat change anything?

It can. A burner that puffs back sends soot into the rooms and the ducts, and an oil appliance's flue collects soot and scale that a chimney sweep clears. The burner itself stays with your heating company.

We heat with wood all winter. How often should the chimney be swept?

Before every heating season at the least, and a second time partway through when the stove carries the house. The EPA recommends having fuel-burning stoves and fireplaces inspected and serviced before each heating season, and a stove run hard builds creosote faster than a fireplace lit now and then.

We are on a well and septic. Does that affect a duct or dryer vent cleaning?

No. Both are dry jobs done with brushes, air and vacuum, so nothing is drawn from the well or sent to the septic system. The crew only asks for a clear path past the pressure tank and any water treatment equipment in the basement.

Is a dryer vent that climbs to the roof something you can clean?

Yes. The crew works the run from inside, through the laundry room and the attic, and checks the cap on the roof if it can be reached safely that day. One reviewer on this location's Google profile described a large ball of lint coming out of a roof termination on that kind of visit.

Is mold on the basement walls or in the attic part of the job?

It is not. The work ends where the ductwork and its equipment end; mold on basement walls, in framing or across attic sheathing is a job for a remediation contractor, and the crew will say so if it sees any.

Will duct cleaning help with allergies?

Duct cleaning removes dust and debris from the runs, and that is what it does. It is not a medical treatment, the EPA points out that no one has shown it prevents health problems, and questions about symptoms belong with a physician.

Do you work on historic houses in Flemington and Clinton?

Yes, with a light touch: duct runs kept to closets, attics and basements, and mortar matched to old brick on chimney work. Flemington's Historic Preservation Commission reviews applications for exterior repairs and alterations inside the borough's district, so ask the borough before visible work is booked.

Do you work for businesses as well as homes?

Yes. Offices, medical and dental suites, shops and managed buildings are handled through the commercial service, with visits planned around the hours the business keeps.
