Since these post are older now, are their any newer systems that are recommended?
Commercial vs. residential sheetmetal vs. ductboard and flex basement vs. attic systems insulation internal vs. external There are numerous things to learn about and discuss before any of us could even advise you on equipment purchase...... I would have a long talk with you first. Your friend might be very mechanically inclined, however there is alot of HVAC knowledge needed to do this right. I have not seen the best results from "general cleaners" trying to expand. So how involed will you be? I will share with you that I have been in this trade for 27 yrs. In addition to my HVAC degree, NATE cert, Master licenses, etc I was also NADCA certified, CSIA certified etc and spent years specializing in cleaning tactics. I am knowledgable about all equipment on the market. Without HVAC knowledge you can do lots of harm. This will take more then a 1-2 week training course for someone not of our trade. Feel free to call me if you would want to talk.

Rotobrush is all I've seen used around my area. I personally think is a piece of crap and just stirs up all the **** in the duct without doing much cleaning
Duct cleaning I have a business associate that wants to O include duct cleaning in his business I HAVE MADE A AGREEMENT WITH HIM that I will do all the service work So I'm looking to help him get the equipment
