Air Handler Cleaning

Improve the quality of the air inside your home with EnviroAir Systems' Air Handler Cleaning service. Many property owners don’t realize that even after the most thorough air duct cleaning, their system can quickly become re-contaminated if the air handler remains dirty.

 

Imagine investing in air duct cleaning only to have mold, dust, and allergens reintroduced into your home as soon as the AC system is turned on. That’s not just frustrating—it’s a waste of money. To prevent this, EnviroAir Systems recommends including air handler cleaning during the air duct cleaning process, ensuring that mold, viruses, and bacteria aren’t sent back into your ventilation system.

The Cleaning Process

Cleaning the air handler is a crucial step in maintaining your HVAC system. Depending on the condition of your equipment, removal and re-installation of the coil may be necessary, which can be more time-consuming and costly than cleaning the coil in place. An HVAC Inspection by a qualified technician is essential to determine the best cleaning method for your specific system.

 

Once the appropriate method is chosen, a high-potency cleaning agent, specifically designed for air handler cleaning, is used to remove any contamination. The coil is then thoroughly rinsed before re-installation or reactivation of the unit.

 

Regular air handler cleaning extends the life of your HVAC system, reduces airflow constriction, and can even save you money on energy bills.

NADCA Recommendations

The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) emphasizes that "air duct cleaning" is a bit of a misnomer. In reality, the entire HVAC system should be cleaned to avoid recontamination and to maximize the benefits of cleaning. Just as you wouldn’t clean only half of your living room floor, you wouldn’t want to clean only part of your HVAC system. NADCA recommends cleaning the entire system, including the following components:

 

  • Air ducts

  • Coils

  • Drain pan

  • Registers

  • Grills

  • Air plenum

  • Blower motor and assembly

  • Heat exchanger

  • Air filters

  • Air cleaner

At EnviroAir Systems, we follow these best practices to ensure your HVAC system is thoroughly cleaned, leaving your home’s air healthier and your system running more efficiently.

Schedule an Inspection

To ensure your system is operating efficiently and free of contaminants, schedule an HVAC Inspection with an EnviroAir Systems NADCA Certified Ventilation Inspector. This inspection will reveal any issues inside your system and help eliminate any unexpected surprises.
