DENVER - The Colorado Attorney General's Office has successfully sued an air-duct cleaning company for false advertising.

212 Home Inc., (d/b/a Denver Air Duct), and company owner, Eliran Raviv, are permanently barred from the air-duct cleaning business in Colorado and must pay $15,000 in penalties.

While consumers were enticed with bargain $39 cleaning offers, they were ultimately charged much higher amounts. The company misrepresented the qualifications of its staff and misled homeowners into believing that their systems contained mold.

"It costs about $300 to properly clean a home air-duct system so Coloradans need to review deals that seem too good to be true with a skeptical eye," Colorado Attorney General Cynthia H. Coffman said. "Unprofessional air duct cleanings can damage consumers' HVAC systems and stir up dust and debris which may lead to health issues."
