01
Inspection and camera scan
We start with a duct camera run through the main trunk and branch lines, plus a look at the coil face and blower compartment. You see the screen. If we find pest nesting in ducts or torn duct insulation, we flag it before any cleaning starts. This takes 20 to 30 minutes on a typical South Ogden ranch home.
02
System setup and containment
We tie a negative air machine into the main trunk and run HEPA vacuum lines to the farthest register. Every supply and return gets sealed so loosened debris travels to the filter, not into your kitchen. Drop cloths go down on carpet and hard floors before a single tool comes out.
03
Mechanical cleaning
Rotary brush and air whip tools work each branch line, with compressed air nozzle passes on the trunk. Flexible duct gets a softer touch than sheet metal duct so the inner liner stays intact. Register covers come off, get washed, and go back on. This is the longest step, usually 60 to 90 minutes.
04
Coil, blower and component cleaning
We pull the blower if access allows, clean the wheel, and apply coil cleaner to the evaporator face. A sanitizing fogger treats the plenum and any area with musty odors. If your system has a Honeywell or Lennox media cabinet, we check the filter fit and seal gaps that let unfiltered air bypass.
05
Verification and airflow report
We re-run the duct camera, take static pressure readings at the return and supply, and compare them to the numbers from step one. You get a written summary with before-and-after airflow, photos of the coil, and a filter replacement schedule. Total visit runs 2 to 4 hours.
