"After many years of living in our home it was time to get our ducts cleaned. I shopped online and selected about 8 Air Duct Cleaning Services to review. This took a while. During my reviews, I learned a few things that I want to pass along here. First and most important: The only duct cleaning company who I reviewed that was fully insured with BOTH Liability and Workers Compensation Insurance was “The Mad Hatter”. That alone demonstrates that this company cares a lot about their employees and customers. Second, when I visited the main office of The Mad Hatter on Six Forks Road in Raleigh to get an estimate, the owner ‘Jerry’ not only made me feel welcomed, he answered all of my questions and trust me here, I had a long list of questions. In-fact this in person review went on for about 1½ hours. After a successful get together with Jerry, I made an appointment to have my ducts cleaned and sanitized. On the day of my appointment, Duct Cleaning Specialist “Travis & Ivory” arrived at our home as scheduled. They introduced themselves, did a walk-a-round of our home to identify all the ducts and returns that needed cleaning and then explained the duct cleaning procedure to my wife and I before getting started. They were both professional and careful not do damage our floors and furniture and not only cleaned and sanitized our ducts and returns, they also cleaned each and every one of the vent and return covers. The procedure took about 3 ½ hours and when they were finished, you could actually smell how clean the air was. I cannot say enough about this this company. They got it going and honestly don’t need my review either. In Short, ‘The Mad Hatter” is clearly a step above their competition and I can highly recommend them. Thank you - Joe F"

2012-2019 A.L. Super Service Award Winner! AQC uses the newest duct cleaning technology in the industry. We do NOT use rotobrush systems or homemade 50 gallon drum vacuums with makeshift hoses to shove down your lines. Those methods move the dirt around and tear up duct work. Also, if you see dirt around the vents during the cleaning process, contaminants are being brought back into the home. This happens with all other duct cleaning systems. We pride ourselves in air duct cleaning the correct way, not pushing the dirt around, but removing it and keeping it contained in our vacuum system and the ducts. We always offer free before and after photos so you see exactly what you're paying for. Our process uses suction and forced air simultaneously. We do not disconnect any lines or compromise your system. Our cleaning methods are above and beyond any air duct cleaners in the country. We are highly recommended by multiple heating and air companies in the area. Air Quality Concepts provides reliable and expert customer service for all of your duct cleaning needs, mold removal, vapor barriers, and dryer vent cleaning. You will breathe better and feel better knowing that your air system and your quality of life are greatly improved.
"If I could give it zero stars I would. Rude, unprofessional kids with a shop vac. They. Active. Dryer is now broken. Sketchy that the kids who came posed as Charles Edwards, the supposed owner. Did not feel safe. Do not recommend at all. New company came and agreed they did nothing and did damage to my dryer."

Yes, a chimney cap is essential for keeping birds, squirrels, rain, and debris out of the flue. By stopping stray embers and blocking downdrafts, a chimney cap helps your fireplace run safely and efficiently. The cap also protects the chimney’s inner walls from moisture damage, saving you from costly repairs down the road.
Most chimney caps last anywhere from three to 25 years. Galvanized steel sits at the low end, while stainless steel, aluminum, and especially copper can exceed the 25-year mark. Annual inspections, quick repairs, and routine chimney cleanings all help the cap reach its full lifespan and keep the flue protected.
A good rule of thumb is to set the cap at least eight inches above the top of the flue. That clearance keeps the draft strong, lets smoke exit freely, and prevents back-puffing into your living room. Extra height also adds a little more protection from wind-driven rain and snow without hurting airflow.
The crown is the solid concrete or mortar slab that sits on top of the chimney stack and sheds water away from the masonry. The cap, mounted above the flue, adds the final layer of defense by blocking rain, animals, and embers while still letting smoke out. Working together, the crown guards the structure and the cap safeguards the flue.
