How It Works

Our Process for Free Duct System Inspection

1

Scheduling the inspection

We set a time, ask basic questions about your system type and home age, and show up ready to access the air handler and any visible duct runs.
2

Air handler and blower check

We open the air handler cabinet and look at the blower wheel, filter compartment, and coil access. Heavy buildup here tells us a lot about what's inside the duct runs.
3

Accessible duct run assessment

We check trunk lines in the attic, basement, or crawl space where accessible. We look for loose joints, damaged liner, disconnections, and visible debris.
4

Register and return vent check

We pull a few registers and look inside with a light or camera. This shows how much accumulation exists in the lines we can't fully see from the outside.
5

Honest findings conversation

We walk you through what we found, what actually needs cleaning or repair, and what can wait. We don't recommend work that isn't warranted.

What's included

Visual inspection of the air handler and blower compartment
Accessible ductwork check in attic, basement, or crawl space
Register pulls and interior duct line assessment with camera or light
Written summary of findings and honest cleaning or repair recommendation
No-obligation quote if cleaning or repairs are warranted after inspection

What's not included

Full internal camera inspection of every duct run — that's available but priced separately for thorough documentation
HVAC equipment diagnostics — we assess duct condition, not refrigerant levels or electrical components
Mold testing or air quality sampling — we can identify visible growth but lab testing is outside our scope

Real Situations

Common Scenarios in Greensboro

A homeowner in Fisher Park is buying a 1965 brick home and the seller has no records of any duct work being done in 20 years.

We walk the system before the inspection contingency period closes. We note the condition of the flex duct runs, check for any disconnections in the crawl space, and give the buyer a straightforward picture of what they're working with.

A Greensboro homeowner got a cleaning quote from another company that seemed high and wants a second opinion before committing.

We come out and do the inspection independently. If the ductwork is genuinely dirty and the quote was reasonable, we'll say so. If the scope was inflated, we'll tell them that too.

A homeowner in Lindley Park notices uneven airflow — some rooms get good air, others barely feel anything — and wonders if the ducts are to blame.

We check for disconnected runs, crushed flex duct, or blocked dampers during the inspection. Uneven airflow usually has a physical cause we can spot without special equipment.

Greensboro Context

Why this matters in Greensboro

Greensboro's older neighborhoods — Irving Park, Sunset Hills, Lindley Park — have homes where ductwork was installed decades ago and has never been assessed. In many cases, original flex duct or duct board from the 1970s and 1980s is still in place and degrading. A quick inspection often turns up disconnected joints or crushed runs that explain efficiency problems homeowners have had for years.

Straight Talk

About pricing & scope

The inspection itself doesn't cost anything. If we find issues and you want us to handle the work, we quote it clearly before anything starts. Homes with crawl spaces or finished attics where ductwork is harder to access may have limited inspection scope — we'll tell you upfront what we can and can't reach.
