Should I Clean My AC Ducts This Year?
For many areas in the country, the start of the summer season and the heat that it brings with it is still off in the distance. Here in Arizona, though, we’re already seeing temperatures reach into the nineties. You are no doubt already running your air conditioner at least semi-regularly. If so, we hope that you remember to have your system tuned up before throwing it back into regular use. Failure to do so can result in serious operational problems with your system, and the risk of potentially costly repair needs.
While you should have your system tuned up annually, you may also want to consider having your air ducts cleaned this summer. This is not a service that you’ll require every year, and it is not one that every homeowner is necessarily going to need. In certain situations, though, professional duct cleaning in Phoenix, AZ can prove to be beneficial. Consider the following information, and remember that you can count on our technicians for all of your indoor air quality service needs.
Why Clean Ductwork?
As we mentioned above, duct cleaning is not an annual maintenance task. Having your system tuned up annually is a must, but routine maintenance does not include duct cleaning. If you have any reason to suspect that your ductwork may be dirty, though, and that this condition is negatively affecting your health or your comfort, or even your HVAC system itself, then scheduling duct cleaning is a good idea.
There are a few reasons to definitely clean your air ducts. If, for instance, you’ve had issues with pests and vermin setting up shop in your ductwork, then having it cleaned out after the issue has been resolved is definitely a good idea. If a simple visual inspection of the interior of your air ducts reveals a considerable buildup of pollutants, then duct cleaning is probably recommended. Just having some dust on your air vents, on the other hand, won’t necessitate the thorough cleaning of your ductwork system.
What Are the Benefits of Duct Cleaning?
There is still some speculation in the field on what the actual benefits of duct cleaning are. This is why it is not a regular annual practice. In those situations in which pollutant buildup is a clear issue within the ducts, though, there are a few benefits to consider. If your air ducts are clogged up with pollutants, it is possible for those pollutants to work free from the surfaces in your ducts and to be distributed throughout your home. It is also possible for these pollutants to build up on components such as your coils, which can impede system operation and drive down energy efficiency.
Duct cleaning is not the type of job that you can do on your own. You need a trained professional to assess the situation in order to decide if duct cleaning is the right course of action. If so, you want to ensure that the right tools, including brushes, agitators, and vacuum equipment, are used. We’ll guarantee that this is the case.

Well, I had some plumbing issues at my residence, and I called "Goettl Plumbing." Great results, too 🤗.
My water wouldn't stay hot, and after contacting Justin at Goettl Plumbing, he sent out Frank, a service technician with over 20 years of plumbing experience. Frank spent a good bit of time studying/ evaluating my plumbing functions, consulted with an on-site Goettl supervisor, and determined my plumbing issues.
After they conferred those issues with Justin, a plan for resolution and payment was determined, and work started the next day.
Greg arrived that morning; accessed the work areas, determined the tools and equipment he needed, and got right to work.
By the end of the day, Greg had installed three (3) Replacement Single Handle Tub/Shower Valves, a Pressure reducing valve, and a Thermal expansion tank with vacuum breaker - - RESULTS: Hot Water 💧
In two days, I witnessed Super Communication, Super Teamwork, and some old-time "1990-1991" Professionalism ... thanks,

After note. Cameron came back by a day later to check on readings he wasn't able to get on first appointment. I have high confidence in his work. I'm very likely to work with them again
Brayan and Marcos did an awesome job on the new ac installation. Installed with no issues and has been on ever since. Perfect time with summer coming up. Walked through and job was very clean and organized. Great work ethic. Great guys.
Update - our air conditioner went out today (10/26/23) and JEHAD showed up to repair the issue but the issue was bigger than expected. Tomorrow we will have a brand new system! Goettl is an EPIC firm that treats customers right. Thank you again JEHAD for going above and beyond.
Goettl is the epitome of what excellent customer service is! Our Drain King, DAREAN, addressed all of our questions and concerns and not only unclogged our drain but went above and beyond to show us our drains leading to the street were free and clear of any other issues. Thank you Darean and thank you Goettl for a great experience!
Update: great experience with Edgar Loredo who kept it real with us and was very transparent. I appreciate his honesty and recommendations. Will be requesting him as our technician in the future if we choose to use Goettl

We had an blockage in our sewer line.
Tyler Leija was dispatched the same day, and found the blockage using a camera tool.
He cleared the blockage temporarily.
The actual fix would require digging up and replacing the bad area of pipe.
Paulo "Adrian" Dado and his crew came out the next day with backhoe, dug up the area, and replaced the section of pipe.
The next day, after inspection, Adrian and his crew filled in the hole and then cleaned up the area.
This is a brief description. There was A LOT of work involved.
Very professional work.
Our tech Jorge that came out the day before helped quickly assess the situation and get us set up for a new system and water heater. Jorge was very friendly, would highly recommend!
Frank did an excellent job at explaining every thing in terms that were understandable to both myself and my wife. This greatly assisted in making the right decision to look at all options on either repair or update/purchase for the future and in the long term, saving money.
Will definitely call and use
Goettle again and I will ask if Darrean could help again.
Couldn’t be happier. Came all the options
