Duct Cleaning · Del Mar, CA

Duct Cleaning in Del Mar, CA.

Duct Cleaning for Del Mar homes, done by licensed San Diego County technicians. Most advertised duct cleaning is a $99 door-knocker that blows dust around for ten minutes and tries to sell you a new system. We use the NADCA-standard negative-pressure method: whole-system vacuum, agitation brushes through every branch, and before/after camera inspection so you can see the difference..

Del Mar: Del Mar HVAC work runs across the Beach Colony bluff-edge estates, the Village commercial along 15th Street and Camino Del Mar, and the inland Del Mar Heights and Carmel Valley tract stock. Salt air is severe on the coastal blocks, the racetrack-adjacent inland zones see real summer heat, and architectural review through the City of Del Mar Design Review Board governs most exterior equipment changes.

Is duct cleaning really worth it?

Done right and not too often, yes. EPA says ducts should be cleaned when there's visible mold, pest activity, or heavy dust. Every 5 to 7 years is typical for most homes. Every year is usually a salesman, not a technician.

How do I know if a cleaner is actually cleaning?

Ask for NADCA certification, HEPA negative-pressure equipment (not a shop vac), and before and after photos or camera footage. A $99 special is not enough equipment on the truck to do the job. We show up with $15,000 of the real tools.
