What equipment is used on a Alpharetta duct cleaning project?
Crews use HEPA-filtered negative air machines rated 99.97% at 0.3 microns, variable-speed rotary brush systems, compressed-air whip tools for flex duct, low-pressure coil injection with EPA-registered cleaners, and HEPA contact vacuums. Drying equipment is added when coil or water-related work is part of the Alpharetta scope.
| Equipment | Class / model | Applied to |
|---|---|---|
| HEPA negative air machine | Phoenix Guardian / OmniAire 2200 class, 99.97% @ 0.3 µm | Source removal under negative pressure |
| Rotary brush system | Variable-speed air-driven brush, nylon and soft-bristle heads | Sheet metal trunks, branches and lined duct |
| Compressed-air whip system | Skipper ball / air-whip rods, 175–200 CFM compressor | Flex duct and long branch runs |
| Coil cleaning system | Low-pressure injection with EPA-registered coil cleaner | Evaporator and condenser coil restoration |

How does the Alpharetta service process work, step by step?
Every Alpharetta project runs through six phases: free on-site inspection, written scope, containment setup, source removal, coil and component cleaning, and documented closeout. Each phase has a defined time window so facility managers know exactly when systems are offline and when the space is usable again.
| Phase | Work performed | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Inspection | Interior duct photography, coil and plenum assessment, vent count, access review | 45–90 minutes |
| 2. Written scope | Fixed price, night-by-night schedule, insurance certificates, access requirements | Within 24 hours |
| 3. Containment | Zone isolation, floor and finish protection, HEPA negative air staged at the air handler | First 60 minutes on site |
| 4. Source removal | Rotary brush and air-whip agitation of trunks, branches, returns and plenums | Bulk of the shift |
| 5. Coil & component | Coil cleaning, blower wheel, dampers, diffusers and register faces | 2–4 hours per air handler |
| 6. Closeout | Reinstallation, wipe-down, after photos, access panel log and written report | Same shift |
Alpharetta tech campuses run tight change-control. We submit the scope, equipment list and crew names ahead of the visit, badge in through facilities, and keep server rooms and MDF closets off the work path with sealed barriers and dedicated HEPA units.
What are the operational metrics for Alpharetta projects?
Typical Alpharetta projects are measured in vents cleaned per crew day, project window per air handler, and building size served. These figures come from Commercial Air Care field records across Fulton County and are used to build the schedule quoted to each client before work starts.
| Average vents cleaned per crew day | 60–95 vents |
|---|---|
| Typical project window | 2–4 days per campus |
| Common building size serviced | 10,000–150,000 sq ft |
| Photo documentation per system | Before/after on every trunk, coil and diffuser |
What determines the cost of duct cleaning in Alpharetta?
Cost in Alpharetta is driven by measurable factors, not square footage alone. Commercial Air Care inspects the building at no charge, counts systems and vents, photographs the interior condition, and issues one fixed written price before scheduling. No pricing is quoted over the phone without an inspection.
- Number of air handlers, rooftop units or unit ventilators
- Total count of supply diffusers, return grilles and branch runs
- Duct material — sheet metal, duct board or internally lined
- Access height and whether lift or scaffold equipment is required
- Contamination level: ordinary dust, construction debris, grease or biological growth
- Coil condition and whether blower wheel cleaning is included
- Scheduling window — business hours, overnight, weekend or shutdown
