"The quality of indoor air inside (homes), offices, schools, and other areas is important not only for comfort but also for one's health. Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) has been tied to symptoms like headaches, fatigue, trouble concentrating, and irritation of the eyes, nose, throat and lungs."

in the health of the home and its occupants.
Pets, occupants with allergies or asthma, cigarette or cigar smoke, water contamination or damage to the home or HVAC system, home renovation/remodeling projects, homes in excess of 5 years old, require duct cleaning.
Notice rust / moisture on your registers? Is there proper vapor barrier under your home? AHU coils need cleaning? Lack of VAPOR BARRIER leads to moisture in the home and possible health issues!
*Air conveyance system includes air handler, blower, coils, trunk lines, all duct lines, registers and returns.

Better air flow means a more powerful, efficient dryer (*drying time reduced substantially).
A closed or restricted vent/duct will reduce air flow, cost more in electricity or even clog, causing a fire! Please don’t become a statistic!

Better air flow means a more powerful, efficient dryer (*drying time reduced substantially).
A closed or restricted vent/duct will reduce air flow, cost more in electricity or even clog, causing a fire! Please don’t become a statistic!
*Many dryer vent exhausts/ducts exit through the roof. Gravity is NOT kind to these systems. To properly clean these systems requires separation of the vent/duct system in the attic.
*BAC uses a combination of pneumatic tools, brushes, forward & reverse air sweeps, blowers and vacuum systems to properly clean your system.
*Dryer exhaust vents should be inspected and cleaned at least once a year depending on location, routing and usage.
Additional services
Cold floors, notice mold/mildew on walls or ceiling? Insulation separating from joists/flooring?
There may be little or no vapor barrier under the home. Rain-water properly draining away from the foundation? Coils may need cleaning. Insufficient vapor barrier leads to odor & moisture in the home & air conveyance system.
Mold/mildew or SMOKE (cigarettes) odor within the residence?
Cleaning the duct work does not get rid of the smoke in the residence.
An antimicrobial / defogger solution / ionizer does not cure this problem.
There are two ways to properly handle this situation: Coating or Re-Lining.
1. Coating: process where we clean the interior of the air handler unit (insulation) then apply a mold, mildew proof/anti-odor causing bacteria primer to the insulation.
2. Re-Lining: process where the interior insulation (of the air handler) is completely removed then a product called KFlex is installed; (*non-fibrous material; resists mold, fungal and bacteria growth and protected with an EPA-approved antimicrobial agent).
*The least expensive is to COAT.
*BAC will :
Inspect crawl space for moisture-laden insulation and insufficient vapor barrier.
Replace/Install insulation & vapor barrier as necessary.
Based on the amount of moisture attacking the foundation BAC will SEAL the crawl space (encapsulation).
Recommend/Install appropriate crawl space dehumidifier (per sq footage).
Coat (subflooring) joists that have been affected by moisture (*prior to replacement $$$$$).
Install Attic Radiant/Thermal Barrier (attics containing HVAC units).
Remove bird’s nest from exhaust/vent systems & install bird-guard as needed.
Install new dryer vent lines as needed.
*BAC works with various School Systems, multiple HVAC Companies, Hotels/Motels, Realtor Groups, Home Owner Associations & Appliance Repair Companies.
*BAC offers detailed Inspection Reports (Commercial & Residential) providing photographic documentation of all services provided. *All Air Conveyance System Cleaning services performed to NADCA Standards.
