Choose A NADCA Certified Provider
In the air duct cleaning industry, providers do not deliver the same level of work. Because the industry is largely unregulated, homeowners and businesses often struggle to separate true professionals from “blow-and-go” operators who advertise low prices and leave dust—and hidden costs—behind. We believe every homeowner and business deserves a NADCA-certified provider.
The NADCA Difference: Accountability And Expertise
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) sets the benchmark for the HVAC hygiene industry. When you hire a NADCA member, you choose documented standards, trained leadership, and a process you can verify.
What NADCA Standards Require
- Higher Cleaning Standards: NADCA members follow the ACR Standard (Assessment, Cleaning, and Restoration of HVAC Systems). The standard defines a full-system approach, not a register-only cleanup.
- Proper Equipment And Methods: ASCS-certified specialists use source-removal tools and professional containment so debris stays controlled and out of occupied spaces.
- Ethics And Transparency: NADCA members agree to a Code of Ethics that discourages bait-and-switch pricing and unsupported health claims.
Insurance And Real Consumer Protection
NADCA membership gives you a practical way to screen for professionalism in a largely unregulated market. Responsible companies carry the right coverage, document their work, and stay reachable after the job.
General Liability Coverage
Comprehensive liability insurance protects your property if accidental damage occurs during service. It provides seamless accountability, ensuring that if something goes wrong, the money to fix it comes from an insurance provider rather than a legal battle or your own pocket.
Workers’ Compensation Coverage
If an injury occurs on-site, our policy handles all medical bills and settlements directly. This ensures the injured party is cared for while completely shielding you—and your homeowners’ insurance—from any financial or legal burden.
Credentialed Oversight
Certified leadership supports correct scope, proper containment, and clear answers when you have questions. You get a process you can measure, not a guess.
Accountability After The Job
Low-price operators often cut scope and move on quickly. Professional providers document results and stand behind their work. That protects both homeowners and businesses.
Verify Before You Hire
At Ductworks, we maintain our NADCA certification because it supports safer, more consistent results for every homeowner and business. Verify credentials and confirm insurance coverage before you hire any contractor. When you choose a certified provider, you choose a defined scope, clear expectations, and a healthier indoor environment.
Real Answers From NADCA Certified Experts—Instantly
At Ductworks, Inc., we set a higher bar for customer service. Your ventilation questions deserve immediate, technically accurate answers—not scripted responses. That is why we make sure your first point of contact is a NADCA-certified specialist.
What Happens On Your First Call
We ask the right questions, explain what matters, and guide you toward a clear scope. Whether you manage a complex commercial facility or care for a private residence, you speak with someone who understands HVAC hygiene and can translate the standard into real-world expectations.
NADCA As A Baseline—Not A Talking Point
We value NADCA certification because it establishes a measurable framework for professional cleaning. We also treat it as the starting point. Our team applies that framework with disciplined planning, thorough documentation, and clear communication—so you know what you are paying for and what results to expect.
Led By Certified Operations Managers
We do not treat certification as a marketing claim—we enforce it in the field. At Ductworks, Inc., every Operations Manager who leads our crews holds NADCA certification. Our managers translate standards into daily execution through training, oversight, and consistent expectations on every job.
HVAC System Knowledge
Crews learn how residential and commercial systems move air. That knowledge supports correct access planning and better cleaning outcomes.
Safety And Compliance
Crews follow OSHA requirements and NADCA safety protocols. We protect the property and keep the worksite controlled throughout the project.
Source Removal Execution
Crews remove debris with mechanical agitation and negative pressure. No shortcuts—just disciplined workmanship.
Professional Communication
We keep expectations clear. Technicians explain the work, answer questions, and treat the home or facility with respect.

NADCA Basics:
Scope And Method:
Hiring And Scheduling:
- Verify NADCA Certification: Use the “Find a Professional” tool on the NADCA website to confirm membership. Scammers often display the logo without authorization.
- Be Skeptical Of “$49 Whole House” Offers: Legitimate duct cleaning takes hours, not minutes. Ultra-low prices often trigger a bait-and-switch once the crew arrives.
- Don’t Accept Instant Mold Diagnoses: Real mold verification requires lab testing. If someone claims “toxic mold” on sight and pushes immediate add-ons, walk away.
- Watch The Time On Site: A thorough cleaning takes several hours for an average home. If a crew finishes in 30–45 minutes, they likely cleaned only the registers and skipped the ductwork.
Think of air duct cleaning as pressing the reset button on your HVAC system.
For residential homes, a professional cleaning typically lasts 3–5 years with routine maintenance and regular filter changes.
Commercial systems vary based on building type and use. A NADCA-certified estimator can assess your facility and recommend a schedule that keeps your HVAC system operating at peak performance.
