Cleaning manufactured home ductwork?
Posted: Thu Sep 04, 2003 6:28 pm
Is there a way to clean the ductwork in a manufactured home? We are in the process of buying a 1994 Dutch that's on private property. Anyway, it was previously lived in by HEAVY smokers. The home was a repo, and the bank put in all new floor covering and had it painted, but it has been sitting vacant all summer, and still reeks of stale smoke inside. I'm concerned that the ducts are going to be pumping more of this nasty smell into the house when we fire up the furnace this winter. Any ideas?
Part 2 of my question: If it's not feesable to clean the flex ducts, how costly would it be to replace them? I can do just about anything myself, but don' t have a clue as to where I'd find the replacement flexable ductwork for it.
Thanks a bunch for any info or feedback!
