An aggressive air duct cleaning brush for drills will be my project this time. My DIY air duct cleaning tools have worked well so far for removing dust and debris from the HVAC ducting. But there is some rust and crud stuck onto part of the metal ducts the air whips I made, during part 2 of the series, just couldn't remove. A duct cleaning brush made by modifying a dryer vent cleaning brush kit was my solution. And now in part 5, I show how the drill powered brush worked on a mess inside the vents. Three different sizes of cable are experimented with in order to remove the crud, corrosion, and a small spot of moldy residue in one segment of ductwork. I also make a hand operated brush, shown near the end. In part 6, I experiment with softer brushes. Those brushes will be used for cleaning dust and debris from ductwork that doesn't have any stuck on messes or corrosion. Softer brushes will be necessary for the flexible ducting to prevent damage to the duct. I don't recommend metal brushes of any kind for metal ducts that can be cleaned with something softer.
