  • It’s a scam because as you just pointed out they can only clear the registers and can’t get very far into the ducts.

    In most houses ducts have a lot of twists and turns. Some times your ducts will split off from the heavy sheet metal ducts and go down correlated tubes, etc.

    It’s damned near impossible to clean the entire ducts and even trying could mean damaging a part of the duct you can’t even access.

    The duct cleaners will try to convince you that they can clean every nook and cranny of your hvac system.

    They clean like 20% of your ducts and call it good. It’s pointless.

    Save the money and clean your own registers with some soap and water. The ducts won’t get cleaned anyway.



  • Nope. HVAC systems are not designed around filters. It’s the other way around. After market filters are designed around marketing and grabbing at your wallet, not caring about your hvac system.

    High density filters are going to reduce air flow and your blow motor will be working over time.

    Eventually you’ll wear your blower motor out and it will need to be replaced.

    The world is full of shitty products. The onus is on you to sort through it.






  • And I distinctly remember stores nationwide last year were giving discounts around thanksgiving on staple holiday food items. So just another bullshit metric that doesn’t mean anything.

    In general food is considerably more expensive now than it’s ever been so these moronic skewed metrics aren’t going to change my opinion on how badly the government’s monetary policy over the last fifty years has been fucking over the public.

    All of the money printing by the federal reserve in response to Covid is largely why you’re feeling pain right now.
