Delray Beach, FL · air duct cleaning

Air duct cleaning that goes all the way in. Past the grille, down to the blower.

Half of Delray Beach was built in the 1970s and 80s, and a lot of that duct has never been opened. We take every grille down, photograph the inside, then brush and vacuum each line through the plenum to the blower wheel.

What you get out of it

Why the far end of the duct matters most.

Every run ends at the plenum, usually made of duct board, and past the plenum sits the blower wheel. Once each blade wears a film of grime, the wheel pushes only part of the air it was designed for, so the vents feel weak years before anything actually fails.

  • Each run cleaned end to end

    The grille can look spotless from the floor while the run behind it is packed. Most dust clings to the wire coil inside the flexible duct that most Delray Beach attics are fitted with.

  • The airflow your unit was sized for

    Grime on the blades of a blower wheel cuts the air it can move. Clean each blade and the wheel goes back to delivering the volume it was designed around.

  • Dust goes out, not onto your things

    While the brush works down the run, the vacuum keeps it under negative pressure, so anything that breaks loose is carried out of the house rather than dropped in the room.

  • Plenum and blower wheel, both done

    The darkest staining collects right where the runs join the air handler. Stop at the grilles and you never reach the two pieces that do the real work of moving air.

  • Photos from inside your own ducts

    We photograph each opening before we start and again when we finish, and you keep every picture. One reviewer on our profile mentions being shown all the gunk caught on the vacuum filter.

  • We clean for a reason, not a date

    A new pet, a renovation, a stale smell at start-up, a bedroom that stays warm, ducts nobody has opened since the house went up. If none of that applies, we'll say so plainly.

The visit, stop by stop

We follow the air, from the room back to the fan.

These are not package tiers, just the order the crew works in, and you are welcome to watch. Open a stop to see what happens in your home at that point.

  3. Plenum and coil cabinetThe dirtiest spot in the system.
  4. Blower wheelEvery blade, one at a time.
  5. Photos that stay with youBefore-and-after shots, yours to keep.

Grilles and boots come off first

Each supply and return grille is taken down so the boot behind it can be reached and photographed. That is also where hidden problems show up: a boot sagging away from the ceiling, foil tape that has come loose at a collar, a run pinched flat against a joist.

Down the whole length of every run

The brush goes down the tube while the vacuum keeps the run under negative pressure, so loosened dust exits the house. Flexible duct is a plastic sleeve stretched over a wire coil, and each loop of that coil catches dust like a ledge, so we brush the full run, not just as far as an arm can reach from the opening.

Stop 3 of 5

Plenum and coil cabinet

This is where all the runs join the air handler, and where the staining is darkest. We open and photograph the cabinet before cleaning it, because the staining pattern shows how long unfiltered air has been getting through, something you should see before it disappears.

Stop 4 of 5

Blower wheel

Taken out when the unit allows, cleaned one blade at a time, and photographed coming out and going back in. The wheel sets how much air the system can move, and a job that stops at the grilles never touches it.

Photos that stay with you

We photograph the inside before we clean and again afterwards, and the pictures are yours. Customers tend to write about this part: how much dust came out, and the gunk on the vacuum filter. If something needs repairing rather than cleaning, we photograph that for you too.

Send us your question
How long will a duct cleaning take?
Reviews of this crew describe visits of about one to two hours for a house. It depends on how many supplies and returns the system has and where the air handler sits: a unit in the attic takes longer to reach than one in the garage.
Can I see what you pulled out?
Yes. One review on our profile mentions being shown all the gunk on the vacuum filter. We photograph the inside of the ducts before and after cleaning, and show you the debris the vacuum collected before we go.
Is the blower wheel and plenum part of the job?
Yes. That's where the heaviest buildup collects, and a cleaning that stops at the grilles never touches the parts that actually push the air.
How often do ducts need cleaning?
It's about the house, not the calendar: pets, recent building work or a remodel, a system nobody has ever opened, a stale smell when the AC starts, or a bedroom that won't cool are why people ring us. If nothing has changed and the ducts were cleaned recently, we'll tell you so.
Which towns does the crew serve?
Delray Beach and southern Palm Beach County, including Boynton Beach, Ocean Ridge, Highland Beach and Boca Raton.
