Well,
regardless of the airflow, I will feel better having the ducts cleaned out.
I can see in some of them they are very dirty and dusty and just to get them
cleaned will make me feel a little better for my health and my families.

I had mine done last year. The wads of stuff that came out of
the ducts was amazing. My house is about 55 years old. My
allergy relief tells me it was the right thing to do, for me.
Just a thought, some years ago I took off the return grate and
found that that duct was almost completely blocked. It was
bad. I cleaned that out and after that, when the furnace was
on the air really blew. I don't know if doing this will have an affect
on your situation.
Think about it, 50 years of dust, dead skin cells, pollen, all in
your ductwork. Why not get it out of there? My advice is to
go with a company that you would have work on your furnace,
not just some guy who's jumped on the duct cleaning bandwagon.
Who wants to spend that money and the job isn't done correctly.

The last one In retrospect dumping the salt OUT OF the bags into wheel
barrow ( clean) spreading around the pool with shovel might of been a better
idea, to bad I didn't think of that.

Whatever vacuum device the guy used, it was very heavy.
Hurt me to watch him carry it downstairs. At any rate, on
his way out he said They (his company, I guess) says you should
do this every two years, but I think that's too much. I said Yeah, but
probably more than every 60 years. He laughed.
But, yes, it wasn't like my little shop vac from Home Depot.
Plus it sucked the crud out to the truck.

I don't know. How do we know it's not mostly just a big empty box, to
make the customer think he is getting his money's worth!
