Attic Duct Cleaning Pleasant Grove UT is the work we do every week in 84062: pulling decades of dust, pet dander and rodent debris out of the runs that feed your bedrooms. If your upstairs never cools evenly or your registers puff dust when the furnace kicks on, the attic trunk line is usually the culprit. We clean it, camera-check it, and seal it before we leave.
Attic Duct Cleaning Pleasant Grove UT is the mechanical removal of dust, debris, dander and microbial growth from the duct runs that sit above your ceiling insulation. We cut a small access port at the plenum, run a rotary brush duct cleaning machine through every branch, and hold the whole system under negative pressure with a HEPA vacuum so nothing migrates into your living space. Flexible duct insulation gets inspected at the same time, because attic heat in Pleasant Grove bakes flex duct until the inner liner separates.
Most Pleasant Grove homes built between 1975 and 2005 have attic trunk lines that have never been touched. Add Utah County's spring pollen load and the red dust that blows off Grove Creek Canyon, and you get a system that recirculates fine grit every time the blower runs. If you have been searching for attic air duct cleaning Pleasant Grove UT near me and getting thin one-page results, that is usually why: the work is dirty, hot, and takes real equipment.
Every attic duct cleaning job in Pleasant Grove starts with the same core scope. Add-ons like mold treatment or coil cleaning are quoted separately and only if the camera shows they are needed.
Rotary brush and air whip through every accessible attic branch line, with the system under negative pressure from a HEPA vacuum. Includes the main trunk, all branch runs, and the plenum connection at the air handler.
We pull every ceiling register, wash the grille, and vacuum the boot behind it. Vent covers and registers get reinstalled with new screws where the old ones are stripped. This is the part homeowners notice first.
A duct camera inspection system runs the trunk line before and after. You get the footage. If the after-shot does not show a clean duct, we keep working until it does.
Loose joints get foil tape, boots get duct sealant mastic, and any disconnected or crushed flex sections are reconnected or replaced. This is where most of the airflow improvement actually comes from.
We measure static pressure with blower door test equipment before and after. The numbers go in your written summary. If pressure did not improve, the job is not done.
We check your filter slot, confirm the correct HEPA filter size for your blower, and note any return-air restrictions we find. A wrong-size filter is one of the most common airflow killers we see in Pleasant Grove attics.
We start with a duct camera inspection system at two or three registers and the return plenum. You see the footage on our monitor. If the attic runs are clean, we tell you and leave. If they are not, we show you the debris load and give you a written price before any equipment comes off the truck.
We connect a HEPA vacuum and negative air machine to the main trunk and seal every register except the one we are working. This keeps the attic under negative pressure so loosened debris travels to the vacuum, not into your bedrooms. Setup takes about 20 minutes.
A rotary brush duct cleaning machine runs each branch line, followed by an air compressor whip for the corners a brush cannot reach. Flexible duct insulation gets hand-wiped where the brush cannot safely go. Most homes take two to four hours for this stage.
We re-tape every joint with foil tape, reattach boots with duct sealant mastic, and replace any crushed or torn flex sections. If we find disconnected runs, we reconnect them. This is the step that actually fixes uneven upstairs temperatures.
We run a blower door test equipment check on static pressure before and after, then camera the trunk line one more time. You get photos, the pressure numbers, and a one-page summary. If the numbers did not improve, we come back at no charge.
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
The primary cleaning tool for flexible attic duct. The brush head spins inside the run and scrubs the liner wall where dust bonds to the surface. It reaches the full length of a branch line without tearing the flex.
Abatement Technologies and Nikro units hold the duct system under negative pressure during cleaning. Everything loosened by the brush travels to the vacuum instead of into your bedrooms. The HEPA filter traps particles down to 0.3 microns.
A forward-and-reverse air whip for the corners and plenum areas a brush cannot reach. It is the tool that gets the last layer of fine dust off the duct board and metal trunk sections.
We push a camera through the trunk and branch lines before and after. You see the footage on our monitor. It is how we confirm the work and how we find disconnected runs and mold growth.
Used to measure static pressure before and after cleaning. If the numbers do not improve, the job is not finished. This is the objective proof that the cleaning actually restored airflow.
For evaporator coil cleaning when we bundle it with attic duct work. A pump sprayer applies coil cleaning chemicals evenly, followed by a clean-water rinse and drain pan flush.
For attic-routed dryer vents, which are common in Pleasant Grove. The auger clears lint blockage and the brushes finish the walls. We verify airflow at the exterior hood before we call it done.
A single-story ranch in Old Town with original attic flex duct that had never been cleaned. The camera showed a 3/4-inch debris layer in the trunk and two branch runs disconnected at the boots. Upstairs bedrooms ran 4 to 5 degrees warmer than the main floor.
We pulled roughly 7 pounds of debris out of the attic system, reconnected both branch runs, and mastic-sealed every boot. Static pressure dropped from 0.82 to 0.61 inches of water column. The upstairs temperature gap narrowed to about 1 degree.
A two-story home near the canyon with a musty smell in the upstairs hallway and visible mouse droppings in the attic. Two flex runs had torn jackets and nesting material inside. The homeowner had been running a HEPA filter for months with no improvement.
We removed the pest and rodent debris, replaced both damaged flex sections, and sealed four penetrations with duct sealant mastic. The musty smell cleared within 48 hours. Airflow at the far bedroom register improved enough that the homeowner noticed it immediately.
A 2019 build in Grove Creek where the homeowner had been fighting dust since move-in. The camera found drywall dust, sawdust, and construction debris in the attic trunk and three branch runs. Filters were clogging every three weeks.
We cleaned the full attic system and the main-floor branches in one visit. Filter life went from three weeks to over three months. The homeowner reported less dust on furniture within the first week and no more visible dust puffs at the registers.
Attic ductwork takes more abuse than any other part of your HVAC system. Here are the four problems we see most often in Pleasant Grove homes and what each one costs you if it goes unaddressed.
Ask a pro →We run a rotary brush duct cleaning machine through every branch and hold the system under negative pressure with a HEPA vacuum so the debris leaves the house instead of settling in it. Most jobs pull 4 to 9 pounds of material out of the attic alone.
We identify affected sections with the duct camera, remove accessible mold growth, and treat the surface. If the flex liner is compromised, we replace that section rather than clean it. We carry EPA Lead-Safe Certification for older Pleasant Grove homes.
We reconnect the run, mastic the joint, and re-measure static pressure. Roughly one in three Pleasant Grove attics we open has at least one disconnected branch. Fixing it is often the single biggest comfort improvement in the job.
We remove the debris, replace damaged flex sections, and seal penetrations with duct sealant mastic. We also point out the entry points we find so you can close them off. If the infestation is active, we refer you to a licensed pest control company first.
Most attic duct cleaning jobs in Pleasant Grove run $450 to $1,200 in 2026, depending on the number of runs, attic access, and whether we find damaged flex duct. A typical 1,800 sq ft single-story with eight runs lands near $650. Add mold treatment or rodent cleanup and you move toward the top of the range. We quote in writing before we start, and the price does not change unless you approve extra work.
No. Attic duct cleaning covers the inside of the ductwork, the boots, and the accessible plenum. Blown-in attic insulation is a separate trade. What we do include is inspection of the flexible duct insulation wrapping your runs. If it is torn or compressed, we note it and can replace the affected flex sections. Full attic insulation replacement is something we refer out to a licensed insulation contractor.
Every three to five years for a typical Pleasant Grove home with a standard filter. Move to every two years if you have pets, if anyone in the house has allergies, or if you have had a rodent problem in the attic. Homes near Battle Creek and Grove Creek deal with more wind-driven dust and tend to need it on the shorter end of that window. A duct camera inspection is the fastest way to know for sure.
The company that shows you camera footage before and after, seals what it opens, and puts a warranty on the work. We have been doing attic duct cleaning in Pleasant Grove since 2022 and we document every job with photos and static pressure readings. Ask any company you call for their NADCA credentials and a sample report. If they cannot produce both, keep dialing.
