Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

AfterAbatement Technologies HVAC Cleaning in New York City: What to Know First
We provide independent Abatement Technologies HVAC cleaning in New York City with camera inspection first, written pricing before any work starts, and a documented photo record of every duct run when we leave. Most Abatement Technologies cleaning jobs across the five boroughs are completed in half a day to one full day, depending on access and how long the system has run without service. The honest price posture is simple: you’ll see a written number for the full scope before a single panel comes off. The camera tells the truth about what’s inside your system, and we quote from that, not from a coupon script.
This page is for New York City homeowners who own Abatement Technologies equipment and want HVAC cleaning done by a crew that can name the components they’re opening and show you what they found. If you know your model number, great. If you don’t, we’ll find it. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written estimate.
How Abatement Technologies Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Abatement Technologies HEPA-AIRE PAS Series portable air scrubbers: These units are workhorses in New York City co-ops and renovated brownstones, but the pre-filter pleats on PAS models load up fast when they’re running during construction dust or near window-unit exhaust. When the pre-filter clogs, the HEPA stage downstream works harder and the motor runs hotter. We document the pre-filter condition on camera, replace it with OEM-spec media, and vacuum the HEPA intake surface without disturbing the filter seal. Skipping this is why some PAS units start whining after eighteen months.
- Abatement Technologies PREDATOR series negative air machines: The PREDATOR’s intake manifold bolts are prone to loosening from vibration, which lets unfiltered air bypass the filter bank entirely. That means the room is being “cleaned” with air that never touched the HEPA stage. Our process includes a bolt torque check and gasket inspection on every PREDATOR service, plus a smoke-pencil test at the seams to verify the seal. We photograph the result so you can see the difference between a tight machine and one that’s just moving air around.
- Abatement Technologies CAPTURE HEPA vacuums: The CAPTURE line’s hose connections wear at the canister inlet, and once the seal goes, fine dust blows right back into the room through the gap. Owners notice a fine haze after vacuuming and assume they need a new filter. What they usually need is a new inlet gasket, a five-minute fix we do with the part in the truck. We check this on every CAPTURE unit before we touch the filter.
- Abatement Technologies FORTRESS containment systems: The FORTRESS door panels and zipper tracks get brittle in New York City apartments where the heat runs hard in winter and the humidity swings in summer. Brittle panels crack at the corners, and then the negative pressure setup can’t hold. We don’t just tape over cracks; we replace the panel section and re-check the containment seal with a digital manometer so the build holds for the full job duration.
- Evaporator coils and blower wheels on Abatement Technologies air handlers: In New York City, coil fins collect a mix of grease from cooking, pet dander, and the fine grey dust that comes from radiator heat and street traffic. It bakes into a paste that a basic filter change cannot address. We pull the coil panel, document the build-up with the camera, apply a non-acidic coil cleaner in a controlled foam, and rinse so the condensate line doesn’t flood. The before photo is always worse than the owner expected. The after photo is what they’re paying for.
Our Abatement Technologies HVAC Cleaning Process
- 1
Call and model identification. You call (806) 606-6902. We ask for the unit’s make and model, the building type, and how long since the last service. We don’t need the model number to give a written price range; we need it to bring the right panels and filters.
- 2
Camera inspection first. Before any work starts, we open the access panels and run the inspection camera through the duct runs, the coil, the blower housing, and the filter bank. You see what we see. Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. Every tech is background-checked and uniformed.
- 3
Written scope and price. We write the work order and price on the spot. No verbal “we’ll see how it goes.” The number is the number.
- 4
The cleaning itself. Negative-pressure extraction with HEPA filtration on the discharge side, coil cleaning with non-acidic foam, blower wheel removal and cleaning if the build-up warrants it, and filter replacement with OEM or matched aftermarket media. We name the brands we use: Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies, Honeywell, Aprilaire, Guardsman.
- 5
Photo documentation of every run. We photograph every duct run before and after, package the images with the written scope and the warranty, and hand it to you before the crew leaves.
- 6
Verification and the written guarantee. We run the system through a full cycle, check the blower wheel clearance, and confirm the drain line flows. Then we hand you the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not right, we make it right.
BeforeAfterWhat Abatement Technologies HVAC Cleaning Costs in New York City
Abatement Technologies HVAC cleaning in New York City typically runs between $425 and $1,600 depending on the system configuration and the scope of what the camera finds. Here’s the honest breakdown:
| Scope | Typical Price Range |
|---|---|
| Single Abatement Technologies air handler, coil and blower, no duct runs | $425 - $675 |
| Full system with up to 12 duct runs, coil, blower, and sanitizing pass | $750 - $1,200 |
| Multi-zone system or containment rebuild (FORTRESS panel replacement added) | $1,100 - $1,600 |
What moves the price: the number of duct runs, whether the blower wheel needs removal, whether the coil is accessible from one panel or requires two, and whether containment panels need replacing. Every quote is a written scope with a single price per system, not a per-vent tease. No bait, no switch, no “while we’re in there” upcharge. Bring a competitor’s written estimate and we’ll put our number next to it, free. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll give you a real number before any work starts.
Why New York City Homeowners Call CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning for Abatement Technologies Work
Because the camera doesn’t lie, and neither do we. Tomas Reyes started this company in 2013 after years of seeing what people in New York City were being sold: a $79 coupon, a shop-vac on wheels, and a “clean bill of health” with no evidence to back it. We do the opposite. Every Abatement Technologies job we take gets a written price before any work starts, a photo record of every duct run before and after, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing on every invoice.
We also keep our trucks stocked for the other brands in New York City homes: Lennox, Trane, and Carrier. If your system has a mixed-brand setup, we don’t punt. We service the whole run. Our techs are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before they arrive. And every call is answered by a live person, 24/7. No phone trees, no “press 2 for service.”
FAQs
No. Routine HVAC cleaning using non-acidic coil cleaners and OEM-spec filters does not void your Abatement Technologies warranty. We document the entire process with photos so you have a record of what was done, when, and with what materials. We never use acidic coil cleaners on Abatement Technologies coils because they can etch the aluminum and shorten the coil’s life, and that’s a failure we’ve seen on units around New York City that were “cleaned” by someone with a pressure washer and a jug of acid. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll tell you what your system actually needs.
Because we photograph the inside of every duct run before and after, and you get those photos as part of the job record. The photo tells you what’s in there. Everything else is just paperwork. We’ve been doing this since 2013, and we’ve never had a New York City customer ask to see the photos and then tell us the job didn’t happen.
Usually because the cheaper crew is not doing the same job. We’ve seen quotes in New York City for $89 that cover “up to 10 vents” and take about 42 minutes of actual work. They don’t pull the coil panel, they don’t clean the blower wheel, they don’t photograph anything, and they don’t run negative-pressure extraction with HEPA filtration. It’s a shop-vac and a salesman. If you already have a written estimate from someone, bring it to us and we’ll put our number next to it, free, with the scope spelled out line by line.
In New York City, with radiator heat, street dust, and apartment density, we recommend a full HVAC cleaning every 3 to 5 years, with coil inspection every 2 years. If you renovate or run windows units heavily, that shortens to every 2 to 3 years. The camera inspection tells you the real answer; we don’t guess.
Yes. We work in co-ops and condos across all five boroughs of New York City, and we carry the insurance and COI paperwork most buildings require. We also coordinate with building superintendents on access and containment, so the job is clean and the building management isn’t left wondering what happened.
