DUCTZ HVAC Inspections & Assessments
When you choose DUCTZ for your air duct cleaning and HVAC restoration, you’ll receive service that is personalized for the needs of your facility, use and occupants. DUCTZ certified professionals train on the most advanced techniques in the industry to ensure that you receive consistently exceptional results using proven methods written in the industry standards. There will be a noticeable difference in your indoor air quality and your HVAC system efficiency.
HVAC Photo Assessments: Not only does each each DUCTZ project begin and end with the DUCTZ photo report, DUCTZ is trusted across the USA and Canada to perform HVAC Assessments. DUCTZ provides customers with photos in order to troubleshoot HVAC issues and develop maintenance plans. A proper HVAC maintenance plan should include the air handler, air ducts, vents, blowers, coils, filter system and all components, noting critical and potential issues as well as a restoration or replacement plan. HVAC assessments are important for every system in order to develop the maintenance plan, but also to establish a baseline of the current condition of the HVAC system and components should there be an event (fire, flood, water, smoke or soot) compromising the facility and equipment. Establishing a baseline condition proves to be most valuable to the facility management company and insurance carrier in the event there is question regarding the HVAC previous condition.
When to Perform an HVAC Inspection (According to NADCA, National Air Duct Cleaners Association): Inspections shall be performed before and after HVAC cleaning and restoration projects. It is also recommended that routine inspections be performed as part of a proactive energy and indoor air quality management plan.
- HVAC Inspector Qualification: It is recommended that a qualified HVAC inspector, such as an Air Systems Cleaning Specialist (ASCS), Certified Ventilation Inspector (CVI), or equivalent, be used to determine the preliminary state of HVAC system component cleanliness.
- Exceeding Industry Standards: DUCTZ technicians are trained to the NADCA Standards (NADCA ACR21) of cleaning and adhere to the EPA Post-Cleaning Consumer Checklist for Duct Cleaning and ACCA-6: Restoring the Cleanliness of HVAC Systems. These industry standards set the methods, requirements and documentation of cleaning and restoring HVAC systems.
According to industry standards, proper HVAC cleaning, restoration and scope should always begin with a survey of the building, asking these questions:
- Has the building/HVAC system been damaged or affected by fire, smoke, soot or water damage?
- Are the HVAC systems impacted with an accumulation of particulate?
- Are the HVAC systems emitting odors?
- Have the HVAC systems been infested with birds, rodents, insects, etc.?
All aspects of the HVAC systems are considered during the HVAC assessment, including air handlers, ductwork, vents, registers, blower motors, coils, drain pans and components. This includes photographing and charting HVAC component internal condition, external condition and mechanical rooms in order to make the recommendation for cleaning intervals, cleaning methods, replacement options and filtration changes and potential upgrades.
How often should HVAC systems be inspected for consideration to be cleaned?
According to NADCA ACR21:
Save on Maintenance Costs and Utilities: If you own or manage any type of commercial business or facility, your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system probably consumes more energy than any other unit or appliance on your property. Studies show that commercial HVAC systems are responsible for over 30% of the overall energy consumed in a commercial building. This percentage is most likely higher if you don’t have your HVAC system, condenser coils and air ducts cleaned and maintained on a regular basis, per the industry standards.

What Is SBS?
If your building’s occupants suffer from acute health problems or allergy-like symptoms, such as itchy eyes, headaches, and nausea, your property may have Sick Building Syndrome, or SBS. SBS can be caused by microbial contaminants, chemical contaminants, and poor ventilation. DUCTZ Air Duct Cleaning services help to control and reduce the contaminants to blame for SBS.

Our expert air duct cleaning and HVAC restoration processes help to protect your commercial property and everyone inside of it.

Dryer Vent Cleaning
There are so many benefits to keeping your dryer vents clean! When you hire DUCTZ to regularly clean your dryer vents:
- The risk of fire, breakdowns, and costly repairs are significantly reduced
- Your dryers function better, dry faster, and last longer
- Your property’s energy bills are lower
The local pros at DUCTZ have the experience to accurately perform jobs of any size. No matter the type of property you own, DUCTZ will exceed your expectations.
Dryer Vent Safety
It’s crucial to the health of your property to keep your dryer vents properly maintained. When your vents are improperly maintained, the buildup of lint and debris can pose a dangerous fire risk.
Our dryer vent cleaning professionals recommend that all dryer vents be cleaned at least once a year. If you use your units more frequently, you may need more regular cleanings. Trust us to help you come up with a tailored plan that fits your property and your schedule!
Dryer Vent Upgrades
DUCTZ offers a wide range of dryer vent upgrades to keep your property safe, including:
- Dryer Flex
- Dryer Wall Vents
- Flush-Mount Dryer Wall Vents
- Dryer Roof Vents
- Dryer Vent Guards to defend against birds and rodents
Condenser Coil Cleaning
Condenser Coils (outdoor coils) attribute to increased energy consumption when coils become impacted with particulate and debris. A proactive maintenance plan should include regular coil cleaning by a professional, using approved chemicals and methods to refrain from damaging the coil fins and fans. DUCTZ COILZ Coil Cleaning method uses high-volume water at low-pressure to ensure the coil surfaces are cleaned with minimal damage to coil surfaces.
Exhaust Cleaning
Unfortunately, exhaust cleaning services are usually overlooked in many commercial buildings and facilities. Commercial exhaust fans are critical for removing indoor pollutants and odors and controlling moisture. If your commercial exhaust fan is not venting properly, it can cause unhealthy air and may promote microbial growth.
DUCTZ teams of HVAC professionals are trusted by our customers because of our dedication, transparency, and full adherence to all standards set forth by NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association), ACCA and the EPA. When you call DUCTZ for commercial exhaust cleaning services, you can count on our expert technicians to ensure that your entire system is clean, promoting a healthy environment for students and staff in your buildings.
No matter the size of your commercial space, you can count on DUCTZ for top-quality commercial exhaust cleaning results you can trust!
HVAC Restoration & Assessments
HVAC Restoration
After an event in your home or business such as a fire, flood, water damage or soot event, it is imperative to have your HVAC systems assessed and restored. Where many people will assume an impacted system must be replaced, it is much more cost-efficient to have the system restored instead. Most of the time, not all the time, HVAC systems can be restored, including all ductwork, air handlers, blowers, coils and components. Restoring an HVAC system can save money, avoid waiting for replacement parts due to supply-chain shortages and slow shipping – and restoration is better for the environment! Instead of removing the impacted equipment and ductwork to end up in a landfill, restoring HVAC equipment reduces your carbon footprint and turns the job around more quickly.
There are many reasons to turn to DUCTZ for HVAC restoration services. Our technicians are highly qualified and properly trained to adhere to EPA and NADCA standards and guidelines. We offer excellent service and utilize before and after photo reports, allowing you to compare photos taken before and after our services so you can see that the job was done right.
HVAC Assessments
Our trained staff will complete a full assessment of your air handlers, duct system, and rooftop units and develop a specific plan to properly clean and restore your HVAC system. Each of our cleaning processes will comply with NADCA, ACCA and EPA established standards.
By instituting proper cleaning practices, DUCTZ services will keep your system free of debris and dirt to allow for all of the components to operate more efficiently and prevent costly repairs. Before our trained technicians begin any service, we perform a thorough inspection to identify problems within your HVAC system and develop a location-specific cleaning plan.
If our inspections reveal any visible contaminants in your system, necessary measures will be taken to properly clean the system to NADCA standards to improve your indoor air quality.
