The Importance of Air Filtration

In all types of commercial buildings, contaminants like dust, bacteria, pollens and mold can accumulate in the HVAC system and ductwork over time.  Dirty air ducts and heating/cooling components are easy to neglect but can create costly issues for property managers, facility managers and building occupants.

For our health and comfort, it is important that the air of indoor occupied spaces be considered and efforts taken to address air contaminants.   Air filtration in the form of duct and HVAC component/coil cleanings provides a mechanism to reduce air particulates and increase cleanliness.


Duct Cleaning

Using National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) protocols, Calhoun Associates, Inc. offers commercial duct cleaning services to improve your facilities indoor air quality, save money on energy, and provide a cleaner, healthier environment.   We have extensive experience providing duct inspections and cleanings.  We handle duct cleanings in all types of buildings including office buildings, hospitals, schools, government facilities, manufacturing and industrials plants.

Air Condition and Heating Component/Coil Cleaning

Adhering to NADCA protocols, Calhoun Associates takes pride in keeping our customer’s air handlers in superior working order. If a unit is fouled with dirt, it cannot supply proper heat or cool transfer and results in increased energy consumption, operating pressure and temperatures ultimately resulting in equipment failure.  Additional contaminants such as pollen and mold can have adverse effects on indoor air quality.  Commercial coil cleaning services can provide improved indoor air quality, help prevent costly breakdowns in HVAC systems, enhance reliability and service life of your system and help maintain peak system efficiency.

Dryer Exhaust Cleaning

Adhering to NADCA protocols, Calhoun Associates can clean dryer exhaust systems in commercial buildings.  It is common for lint and debris to build up in the dryer exhaust system which can become a safety hazard and reduce the efficiency of the dryer.  Using a compressed air cleaning whip and HEPA vacuum, the system will be cleaned from the point of the dryer connection to the exterior most point.

Kitchen Exhaust System Cleaning

Using the most complete cleaning and inspection standards of the International Kitchen Exhaust Cleaning Association (IKECA), Calhoun Associates has the experience to clean a complete kitchen exhaust system, starting with the hood including up to the fans on the roof.  Whether your kitchen requires only a hood cleaning or a complete exhaust cleaning, we have the experienced staff to do the cleaning correctly, completely and ensuring standard compliance.  Because our service technicians are IKECA members, they are committed to utilizing the industry inspection and cleaning standards.
