EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) Registered and certificated HVAC formula forms a protective, non-flammable, odorless layer that reinforce the ducts, prevent damage and deterioration, stop erosion, avoid the fiberglass detachment, reduce moisture, dirt, mold and dust, remedy air leaks and facilitates future cleanings.
Unless the deterioration is such that ducts have been torn apart, they will be better than new.
Our inspection determines the state of the system (equipment and ducts) in terms of dirt, contamination and detachment and wastage of fiberglass and the possibility of remediation without incurring in duct changes. It is sufficient to determine the quality of air recirculation in the system.
It is free, effective, supported by photos and most of the time fast.
For real estate buyers we offer extended inspection with estimated cost of remediation for a better negotiation.
Without the experience of having inhabited a house, especially homes of 10 or more years, our examination determines these very deep conditions that will be a problem for new owners. This inspection includes the key items for peace of mind living:
- Moisture – Fungus Examination
- Fiberglass Detachment Examination
- Bacteria – Viruses by Microbial Test if needed.
- Optimal – poor cooling condition
- Air Flow Delivery Measurement
- Thermal Load By Area
- Estimate with pictures
Moisture, fungus, Fiberglass detachment, bacteria, viruses test are essential for the common, hidden and harmful problems that enter Air ducts usually.
Air flow delivery measurement and Thermal Load by Area will show rooms with not enough air flow for a fresh living area caused by serious leaks, insufficient equipment or improper ducts distribution.
The most HVAC technicians are focused on the machine not in ducts, home inspectors can’t check items like these. Buyers need key information revealing hidden problems to negotiate with sellers; these problems will represent expensive repairs, uncomfortable and unhealthy environments for families.
The average cost of this Inspection is $250.00 to maximum $750.00. according to the living area. This amount that the buyer paid us, at last, will be paid to the seller in the negotiation. If we carry out the solution work, we will reimburse the cost of the examination.

Never contract brush cleanings if your ducts have not been coated and sanitized. This can activate bacteria and fiberglass shedding.
No.
