Your HVAC system is working harder than it should. Debris buildup forces longer run times, higher energy bills, and uneven temperatures that employees notice. Clean ductwork changes that.
Buildings with professionally cleaned air ducts see energy savings between 41% and 60% on conveyance costs alone. That’s not a sales pitch—it’s what happens when your system can move air without fighting through layers of dust, pollen, and debris.
You’ll also see fewer complaints about stuffiness, headaches, and allergic reactions. The air quality improves because you’re not recirculating contaminants every time the system kicks on. Your maintenance calls drop. Your HVAC lifespan extends. And your utility bills reflect the difference.
We’re NADCA-certified with Air System Cleaning Specialists trained to handle commercial ductwork throughout Summerfield, NC and the greater Greensboro area. Rick Watson and Noah Watson lead every job with the same focus: thorough cleaning, clear communication, and systems that perform better when we’re done.
We don’t handle residential dryer vents. We focus on commercial HVAC duct cleaning because that’s where the complexity lives—and where poor maintenance costs you the most. North Carolina’s humid climate accelerates mold growth and allergen buildup in duct systems, especially in the Piedmont region where seasonal pollen is relentless.
You’re not getting a one-size-fits-all approach. You’re getting technicians who understand how commercial systems work and what it takes to clean them right.
We start with a system inspection to identify problem areas, access points, and the extent of buildup. You’ll know what we’re dealing with before we start.
Then we seal off your ductwork and create negative pressure using HEPA-filtered equipment. This keeps contaminants contained and prevents debris from spreading into your building during the cleaning process. We use rotating brushes and compressed air tools to dislodge buildup from duct walls, then extract everything through high-powered vacuums.
Every register, return, and supply vent gets cleaned. We inspect the system again after cleaning to confirm airflow improvement and verify nothing was missed. You’ll see the difference in how your HVAC performs—and your energy bills will reflect it within the first billing cycle.

You’re getting a full system cleaning—not just the easy-to-reach sections. That means supply ducts, return ducts, registers, grilles, diffusers, heating and cooling coils, drip pans, fan motors, and the air handling unit housing.
In Summerfield and the surrounding Triad area, we regularly pull out dust, mold, pollen, insect debris, and rodent droppings that have been circulating through commercial buildings for years. North Carolina’s humidity makes mold growth a real issue, especially in systems that haven’t been cleaned in over a decade.
We use NADCA-standard methods, which means negative air pressure, HEPA filtration, and mechanical agitation to remove debris—not just blow it around. The result is measurable airflow improvement, lower energy consumption, and indoor air quality that doesn’t trigger complaints from your staff or customers.
Most commercial buildings benefit from duct cleaning every three to five years. If your building is in a high-humidity area like Summerfield, or if you’ve had water intrusion, mold issues, or recent construction, you’ll want to clean sooner.
NADCA recommends cleaning when there’s visible mold growth inside ducts, substantial dust or debris coming from registers, or vermin infestation. You should also clean after any renovation that generates dust or if your HVAC system is running longer cycles without maintaining temperature.
North Carolina’s climate accelerates allergen and mold buildup. If employees are complaining about air quality or you’re seeing higher-than-normal HVAC maintenance costs, it’s time to inspect your ductwork.
Yes, but the savings depend on how clogged your system is. Buildings with significant debris buildup see energy savings between 41% and 60% on fan and blower costs after cleaning. Even light buildup can reduce efficiency by 20% to 40%.
When ducts are clogged, your HVAC works harder to move the same amount of air. That means longer run times, higher utility bills, and more wear on your equipment. Clean ducts restore airflow, reduce strain, and let your system reach set temperatures faster.
You’ll typically see the difference within the first month. If your system was struggling before cleaning, the improvement is immediate and measurable on your energy bill.
Commercial systems are larger, more complex, and require different equipment and expertise. You’re dealing with multiple air handlers, longer duct runs, higher airflow volumes, and often rooftop units that residential techs don’t encounter.
Commercial duct cleaning also involves stricter standards. Many facilities need to meet OSHA indoor air quality requirements or maintain specific ventilation rates under North Carolina Building Code. That means documentation, compliance verification, and a level of thoroughness that goes beyond residential work.
We focus exclusively on commercial systems because the stakes are higher. Poor cleaning can leave contaminants behind, damage ductwork, or fail to improve airflow. You need certified technicians who understand commercial HVAC and can clean it without disrupting your operations.
It depends on the size of your building and the complexity of your HVAC system. A small office might take four to six hours. Larger facilities with multiple air handlers can take a full day or more.
We work around your schedule to minimize disruption. Most commercial clients prefer after-hours or weekend service so employees aren’t affected. We’ll give you a time estimate after the initial inspection based on your system’s layout and the extent of buildup.
The process isn’t something you want rushed. Thorough cleaning means accessing every section of ductwork, using proper containment, and verifying airflow improvement when we’re done. Cutting corners saves time but costs you the benefits you’re paying for.
Yes. The EPA and WHO both recognize that poor indoor air quality causes health issues, especially in buildings where contaminants circulate through HVAC systems. Symptoms include headaches, fatigue, eye and throat irritation, difficulty concentrating, and respiratory problems.
Dirty ductwork spreads dust, mold spores, pollen, and other allergens every time your system runs. Employees with asthma or allergies are affected first, but even healthy individuals report discomfort in buildings with poor air quality. The WHO estimates that 10% to 30% of office buildings have indoor air quality problems.
Cleaning your ducts won’t solve every air quality issue, but it eliminates a major source of airborne contaminants. Most facility managers see a drop in employee complaints within weeks of a professional cleaning.
NADCA certification is the baseline. It means the company follows industry standards for cleaning methods, equipment, and technician training. You also want certified Air System Cleaning Specialists (ASCS) on the crew—not just general laborers with a vacuum.
Ask about their process. Legitimate companies use negative air pressure, HEPA filtration, and mechanical agitation to remove debris. If they’re just blowing air through your ducts or using a shop vac, you’re wasting money.
Check references and ask how they handle commercial systems specifically. Residential experience doesn’t translate. You need a company that understands commercial HVAC, can work around your schedule, and provides documentation for compliance or warranty purposes. We meet all of those requirements with NADCA certification and a commercial-only focus.
