Your energy bills drop because your system isn’t fighting through layers of buildup just to push air. Equipment lasts longer when it’s not overworking itself every single day. Fewer service calls, fewer breakdowns, fewer surprise repair bills.
People stop complaining about stuffiness, dust on desks, or feeling like they can’t breathe right at work. That’s not dramatic—it’s what happens when you stop recirculating contaminated air through your building.
If you’re in manufacturing, food service, or healthcare in Pleasant Garden, clean ductwork isn’t optional. It’s how you stay compliant, reduce liability, and keep your operation running without air quality becoming the thing that shuts you down or makes people sick.
We’ve been serving Pleasant Garden and the Greensboro area since the early ’90s. Rick and Noah Watson are both ASCS certified through NADCA—the National Air Duct Cleaners Association. That’s not a weekend course; it’s the industry standard for knowing how to clean commercial HVAC systems correctly.
We don’t do residential dryer vents. We focus entirely on commercial duct cleaning, vent cleaning, and AC duct cleaning for businesses that need it done right. Offices, warehouses, medical facilities, restaurants—places where air quality affects operations, not just comfort.
Pleasant Garden sits in an area where humidity averages 70% year-round. That’s ideal conditions for mold, mildew, and bacteria to thrive inside ductwork. We’ve seen it in nearly every system we inspect. The question isn’t whether your ducts have buildup—it’s how much, and what it’s doing to your air quality and equipment performance.
We start with a video inspection of your ductwork. You see what we see—no guessing, no upselling. If your ducts are fine, we’ll tell you. If they’re packed with dust, debris, or mold, you’ll know exactly what you’re dealing with before we touch anything.
Once we’re cleaning, we use industrial equipment designed for commercial systems—not household vacuums. We create negative pressure to contain contaminants, then agitate and extract everything from the ducts: dust, pollen, dander, mold spores, construction debris, whatever’s in there. We clean supply and return ducts, registers, grilles, and accessible components of your HVAC system.
After cleaning, your system moves air the way it was designed to. No blockages, no restrictions, no contaminated buildup getting pushed into your workspace every time the system kicks on. Most commercial facilities in Pleasant Garden should have this done every three to five years, but if you’ve never had it done—or you’re seeing dust, smelling mustiness, or dealing with complaints—it’s overdue.

You get a full system cleaning—not just the easy-to-reach parts. That includes supply ducts, return ducts, registers, grilles, diffusers, and the accessible areas of your HVAC unit. We remove dust, debris, mold, and contaminants that have been building up and recirculating through your space.
In Pleasant Garden, where humidity stays high and older buildings mix with newer construction, mold is common. We’ve cleaned systems in facilities that looked fine on the outside but had visible mold growth inside the ductwork. That’s what happens when moisture gets in and sits. It doesn’t go away on its own.
The EPA found that just 0.42 inches of dirt on a heating or cooling coil can reduce efficiency by 21%. That’s real money—higher energy bills every month because your system is working harder than it should. Clean ducts mean better airflow, lower operating costs, and fewer emergency repairs when something finally gives out from overwork.
We also provide documentation of the work. If you need records for insurance, regulatory compliance, or property management reporting, you’ll have it. This isn’t a “trust us, it’s clean” situation—you get proof of what was done.
If you’ve never had it done, you need it. Most commercial systems in Pleasant Garden accumulate years of dust, pollen, and debris that never gets addressed until someone finally looks inside.
Visible signs include dust around vents, musty smells when the HVAC runs, or people complaining about allergies and stuffiness that gets worse indoors. If your energy bills have crept up without explanation, that’s another red flag—your system is likely working harder because of blockages or dirty coils.
We can inspect your system with a camera and show you exactly what’s in there. No pressure, no sales pitch. You see the footage, and you decide whether it needs cleaning. Most facility managers are surprised by what’s actually inside their ductwork once they finally see it.
Commercial systems are bigger, more complex, and require different equipment and certifications. You’re dealing with larger ductwork, more zones, and often contaminants that don’t exist in homes—manufacturing dust, kitchen grease, chemical residues, higher volumes of traffic and pollutants.
Residential duct cleaning companies usually aren’t equipped or trained for commercial work. The equipment isn’t powerful enough, and the process isn’t the same. NADCA certification matters here because it means the technician understands commercial HVAC systems, airflow dynamics, and how to clean without damaging equipment or spreading contaminants.
We don’t do residential dryer vents or small home systems. We focus entirely on commercial duct cleaning, vent cleaning, and HVAC duct cleaning for businesses. That specialization means we know what we’re doing when we show up to a facility in Pleasant Garden—and we have the right tools to do it correctly.
It depends on the size of your building and the condition of your ductwork. A small office might take half a day. A large facility with multiple HVAC units could take a full day or more.
We work around your schedule as much as possible. If you need us there after hours or on weekends to avoid disrupting operations, we can make that happen. Most businesses in Pleasant Garden don’t want their HVAC system torn apart in the middle of a workday, and we get that.
The actual cleaning process involves setting up containment, running negative pressure equipment, and systematically cleaning each section of ductwork. It’s not fast, but it’s thorough. Rushing through it means leaving contaminants behind, and that defeats the whole purpose. You’re paying for a complete cleaning, and that’s what takes time to do right.
Yes, if your ducts are dirty enough to restrict airflow or your coils are caked with debris. The EPA’s research is clear: even a thin layer of buildup on coils reduces efficiency by 21%. That’s not a small number—it’s real money every month.
When your HVAC system has to work harder to push air through clogged ducts or over dirty components, it runs longer and uses more energy. Clean systems operate more efficiently, cycle less frequently, and put less strain on motors and compressors. That means lower utility bills and fewer expensive repairs.
We’ve had clients in Pleasant Garden see noticeable drops in energy costs after cleaning, especially in older buildings where ductwork hadn’t been touched in years. It’s not magic—it’s just physics. Remove the blockages, and air moves the way it’s supposed to.
No. Mold is one issue, but it’s not the only reason to clean your ducts. Dust, pollen, dander, construction debris, insect droppings, and general particulate buildup all accumulate over time. Every bit of that gets blown into your building every time the system runs.
Even if you don’t have visible mold, you likely have conditions that support it. Pleasant Garden’s humidity averages 70% year-round. When moisture gets into ductwork—through leaks, condensation, or water damage—it creates the perfect environment for mold and bacteria. Most commercial buildings we inspect have some level of microbial growth, whether anyone’s noticed it yet or not.
Regular duct cleaning isn’t just about fixing a problem after it’s obvious. It’s about maintaining a system that affects everyone in your building. Cleaner ducts mean better air quality, fewer respiratory complaints, and a healthier environment overall. If you’re in healthcare, food service, or any industry where air quality is regulated, this isn’t optional—it’s part of staying compliant.
NADCA recommends every three to five years for most commercial facilities. But that’s a baseline—not a rule that fits every situation. If you’re in manufacturing and generating dust or particulates, you might need it more often. Same for restaurants dealing with grease and smoke, or medical facilities with strict air quality standards.
If you’ve had water damage, a roof leak, or flooding, your ducts should be inspected and likely cleaned regardless of when they were last done. Water introduces mold risk immediately, and waiting just makes it worse.
We’ve cleaned systems in Pleasant Garden that hadn’t been touched in ten or fifteen years. By that point, the buildup is severe—thick dust, visible mold, sometimes even dead rodents or nests. It’s not pretty, and it’s definitely affecting air quality and system performance. If you can’t remember the last time your ducts were cleaned, or if you’ve never had it done, now’s the time to at least get an inspection and see what you’re dealing with.
