We don't just clean ducts; we perform a complete molecular sanitization of your duct system to protect your home and your health.
The accumulation of dust inside ducts—whether flexible, metal, or fiberglass—combined with darkness and humidity creates the perfect breeding ground for microbial growth.
A standard duct cleaning to remove particulate matter is recommended every 3 years. While dust particles are large and easy to catch, mold spores and microbes are microscopic and nearly impossible to trap with standard air agitation alone.
Our process uses high-pressure air agitation (safe for metal and flex ducts) combined with advanced molecular sanitization to neutralize what vacuums miss.
Fiberglass (Trunk Lines): Highly porous. Dust and microorganisms penetrate and stagnate deep inside. The correct approach is often removing and replacing compromised fiberglass.
Flexible Ducts: Have a lifespan of 12 to 15 years. Over time, insulation degrades, cool air escapes, and HVAC systems overwork. Past this age, ducts should be replaced, not cleaned.
We established this protocol to truly protect your home and its occupants, ensuring long-term efficiency so future cleanings are easier, more economical, and your home remains safeguarded against microbial growth.
Ducts traverse throughout the home. Even using a powerful HEPA vacuum at the vent, spores can scatter. We protect surrounding areas with plastic, encapsulate the vent, and deploy 2 portable Air Scrubbers to capture stray spores and prevent cross-contamination.
Pressurized air reaches 4 to 6 feet, but flexible ducts are much longer. To bridge this gap, we inject Antimicrobial Fogging using Sani-Antimicrobial—a specialized formulation—to ensure an integral sanitization throughout the entire length of the HVAC system.
When accessible, we perform fogging from the attic, targeting both the inside and outside of the fiberglass connection boxes where flexible ducts attach. These boxes frequently harbor high concentrations of contaminants due to enclosed humidity.
We meticulously seal the Cans/Boots to prevent leaks or air bypass. This critical physical barrier stops hot, unconditioned attic air from being sucked into the living space around the contours of your vents.
The Plenum Return and Plenum Supply—the main fiberglass distribution boxes installed before and after the HVAC unit—receive our specialized deep-penetrating Sani-Antimicrobial Fogging treatment to neutralize accumulated threats.
We inject ActivePure® Advanced Photohydrolysis Technology into the return plenum using a specialized Blaster unit. The HVAC absorbs this purifying plasma, distributing it totally through the system to deactivate germs, bacteria, VOCs, mVOCs, and mold at the molecular level.
For long-term protection, we apply Sani-Coat, a specialized Mold Preventive Coating for fiberglass materials (vent boxes, connection boxes, plenums). This creates a highly durable barrier that deactivates contaminants and prevents dust from settling into the porous material.
To maintain a sanitized environment 24/7, we install the Induct 2000 unit into the supply plenum. Utilizing continuous ActivePure® Advanced Photohydrolysis Technology, it actively scrubs the air as it passes through. (Note: The active cell requires annual replacement to maintain peak efficiency).
Your HVAC Unit is a complex organism running your home's air supply. Because of its complexity, we have a highly specialized, independent protocol just for the unit itself. To learn more about how we treat the core of the system, visit our:

Designed for homes that maintain a regular cleaning schedule every 2 to 3 years and show no symptoms of allergies or humidity.
Technique: Uses pressurized air and HEPA vacuuming to extract common particulate dust.
Note: The homeowner must prepare the area by protecting furniture and objects prior to our arrival.
Ideal for those seeking a deep clean with the peace of mind that their home and family are protected during the process.
Active Protection: We handle sealing the work areas with professional-grade plastic.
Air Control: We use industrial Air Scrubbers to capture any suspended particles, preventing cross-contamination between rooms.
This plan is MANDATORY if you detect:
It is a complete restoration where we apply our Sani-Coat shielding to Plenums, Trunk Lines, and Connection Boxes. This treatment "deactivates" porous materials, preventing mold from re-colonizing the system.
For a truly healthy home, we highly recommend combining the Healthy Plan with our specialized HVAC Unit Cleaning and Sanitization service.
Once we perform the Healthy treatment, your system is shielded. This allows your future every-3-year cleanings to be much more affordable and simpler, focusing solely on the Standard format.
Don't look at this as an expense, but as an investment in your family's respiratory health and the longevity of your property.
