Cambridge homes built before 1980 often hide years of dust, pet dander, and mold in ductwork that standard HVAC filters miss. Our truck-mounted system blasts debris loose with 400+ CFM suction, then HEPA-vacuums every vent, branch, and main trunk. No brushes that push dirt deeper—just negative pressure that pulls contaminants out. Cambridge’s tight crawl spaces and historic basements get the same deep clean as modern homes. We cap it with sanitizer to kill lingering mold spores, leaving ducts cleaner than new-build standards.
Request this service →Your outdoor AC coil and indoor blower motor collect grime that forces systems to work overtime. In Cambridge’s humid summers, this gunk breeds mold and restricts airflow, spiking bills by 15–30%. We dismantle the access panel, degrease the coil fins, and scrub the blower wheel without damaging seals. No ‘quick wipe’—we use EPA-approved cleaners and restore original airflow. Cambridge homeowners see immediate drops in runtime and energy use, often recouping the cost in one season.
Request this service →Clogged dryer vents cause 2,900 US fires yearly, and Cambridge’s older multifamily buildings are prime targets. We remove lint buildup from the vent pipe, elbow joints, and exterior hood, then test airflow with a calibrated gauge. No ‘good enough’—we ensure vents meet Massachusetts fire code. We also inspect for crushed or improperly installed ducts, a common Cambridge issue in 1950s triple-deckers. Fast, thorough, and documented with photos for insurance.
Request this service →Mold in ducts isn’t just unsightly—it’s a health hazard, especially in Cambridge’s older, poorly ventilated homes. We start with moisture testing to confirm the source, then apply hospital-grade antimicrobial to kill spores at the root. Next, we HEPA-vacuum ducts and sanitize with an EPA-registered solution. No temporary cover-ups—this is a full remediation. We seal ducts post-cleaning to prevent future growth, backed by a 1-year warranty on workmanship.
Request this service →Kitchens gutted for gut rehabs, bathrooms stripped to studs—Cambridge’s renovation boom leaves ducts packed with fine silica dust that clogs filters and coats coils. Standard vacuuming won’t cut it. We use negative-air machines to extract dust from every duct branch, then wipe down coils and registers. No ‘settling for less’—we guarantee dust-free airflow within 24 hours. Ideal for Cambridge homeowners who’ve just moved into a flip or completed a major remodel.
Request this service →Offices, restaurants, and retail spaces in Cambridge’s dense neighborhoods suffer from clogged ducts that drive up HVAC costs and trigger tenant complaints. We clean during off-hours to avoid disruption, using commercial-grade equipment to handle larger systems. Our process includes pressure-balancing to restore even airflow across zones. We provide before/after reports for property managers and landlords, ensuring compliance with Cambridge’s indoor air quality standards.
