Your employees spend 40+ hours a week breathing your building’s air. When that air cycles through contaminated ducts, you’re looking at more sick days, higher energy bills, and decreased productivity.
Clean commercial air ducts change the equation entirely. Your HVAC system stops working overtime to push air through debris-clogged passages. Energy costs drop measurably—most businesses see 10-15% reductions in monthly bills.
More importantly, your team breathes cleaner air. Fewer allergy flare-ups, less respiratory irritation, better focus. The difference shows up in attendance records and workplace satisfaction surveys.
We bring over 20 years of HVAC expertise to Shavano Park’s commercial properties. As a veteran-owned business, we operate on principles of integrity, reliability, and getting the job done right.
We understand Shavano Park’s unique mix of professional offices, custom commercial spaces, and small businesses. Each property has different air quality challenges—from the humidity that builds up in South Texas to the dust that accumulates in spaces with high foot traffic.
Our licensed, certified technicians handle every job with the same attention to detail, whether it’s a small office building or a larger commercial facility. No subcontractors, no shortcuts, just professional service backed by decades of experience in the San Antonio market.
Our process starts with a comprehensive inspection of your entire HVAC system. Our technicians examine ductwork, identify problem areas, and assess contamination levels using specialized cameras and diagnostic equipment.
Next comes preparation. We seal off work areas, protect your business operations, and set up industrial-grade vacuum systems. Access points are created at strategic locations to reach every section of your ductwork.
The actual cleaning uses powerful negative pressure systems combined with rotary brushes and agitation tools. This methodically removes dust, debris, mold, and other contaminants from duct surfaces. Each section gets thoroughly cleaned before moving to the next.
Finally, we sanitize and seal the system. All access points are properly closed, equipment is tested for optimal airflow, and you receive documentation of the work completed. Most commercial cleanings are scheduled during off-hours to minimize business disruption.

Our commercial air duct cleaning includes your entire HVAC system—supply ducts, return ducts, registers, grilles, diffusers, coils, and air handling units. Every component gets professional attention because partial cleaning doesn’t solve air quality problems.
In Shavano Park’s climate, mold and moisture issues require special consideration. The humid Texas air creates perfect conditions for microbial growth inside ductwork, especially in commercial buildings where HVAC systems run constantly.
Our service also addresses specific challenges common to local businesses. Construction dust from nearby development projects, pollen from the area’s abundant vegetation, and particulates from increased traffic all find their way into commercial HVAC systems. Professional cleaning removes these contaminants and helps prevent rapid re-accumulation.
Documentation includes before-and-after photos, air quality measurements, and maintenance recommendations. This helps with insurance requirements, regulatory compliance, and planning future maintenance schedules.
Most commercial properties in Shavano Park need professional air duct cleaning every 3-5 years, but several factors affect this timeline. Buildings with high occupancy, heavy foot traffic, or nearby construction may need annual cleaning.
Restaurants, medical offices, and retail spaces typically require more frequent service due to higher contamination rates. Manufacturing or industrial facilities might need cleaning every 1-2 years depending on their operations.
The key indicators are visible dust accumulation around vents, musty odors, increased allergy symptoms among occupants, or rising energy bills. A professional assessment can determine your specific cleaning schedule based on your building’s usage and local environmental factors.
Commercial air ducts accumulate a variety of contaminants that affect both air quality and system efficiency. Dust and debris are the most common, but they’re just the beginning of the problem.
Mold and mildew thrive in South Texas humidity, especially in ductwork where moisture can condense. Pollen from local vegetation, pet dander from service animals, and particulates from vehicle exhaust also circulate through commercial HVAC systems.
Business-specific contaminants vary by industry. Restaurants deal with grease and cooking particles, offices accumulate paper dust and toner particles, and retail spaces collect fibers and outdoor pollutants brought in by customers. Professional cleaning addresses all these contamination sources systematically.
Clean commercial air ducts typically reduce HVAC energy consumption by 10-15%, though savings can be higher in severely contaminated systems. When ducts are clogged with debris, your HVAC system works significantly harder to maintain comfortable temperatures.
The savings show up immediately in monthly utility bills. A 5,000 square foot office spending $800 monthly on HVAC energy might save $80-120 per month after professional cleaning. Over a year, that’s $960-1,440 in direct cost savings.
Additional savings come from reduced maintenance needs and extended equipment life. Clean systems experience fewer breakdowns, require less frequent repairs, and last longer before needing replacement. These indirect savings often exceed the direct energy cost reductions.
Professional commercial air duct cleaning is typically scheduled during off-hours, weekends, or holidays to minimize business disruption. Most cleaning projects can be completed outside normal business hours with proper planning.
For businesses that operate 24/7, the work is done in sections. One area gets cleaned while other areas remain fully operational. This approach takes longer but ensures continuous HVAC service throughout your facility.
The actual cleaning process is contained and controlled. Work areas are sealed off, and industrial-grade filtration prevents dust or debris from spreading to clean areas. Most businesses find they can operate normally in unaffected areas while cleaning is underway in other sections.
Several clear indicators suggest your commercial air ducts need professional attention. Visible dust around supply vents or return grilles is the most obvious sign, especially if it reappears quickly after cleaning.
Musty or stale odors when the HVAC system starts up indicate microbial growth or accumulated organic debris. Increased allergy symptoms or respiratory complaints from employees or customers also point to poor indoor air quality from contaminated ductwork.
Rising energy bills without corresponding increases in usage suggest your HVAC system is working harder due to restricted airflow. A professional inspection can confirm whether duct contamination is the cause and recommend appropriate cleaning procedures.
We combine veteran-owned integrity with over 20 years of local HVAC expertise. We use only certified, licensed technicians—no subcontractors or temporary workers handling your commercial property.
Our service goes beyond basic duct cleaning to include comprehensive HVAC system assessment, indoor air quality testing, and customized maintenance recommendations. This complete approach addresses root causes rather than just surface symptoms.
Our 24/7 emergency availability means urgent air quality issues get immediate attention, not next-week appointments. Our established relationships with local businesses and proven track record in the San Antonio market provide confidence that the job will be done right the first time.
