Post-Construction HVAC Cleaning in Atlanta
Construction and renovation fill HVAC systems with drywall dust, sawdust, insulation fibers and debris — especially when the system runs during the build-out. If that material is not removed before move-in, it blows into new finishes, clogs filters and coils within weeks and becomes the first complaint from new tenants.
Commercial Air Care performs post-construction HVAC cleaning for general contractors, developers and property owners across Metro Atlanta. We clean ducts, registers, air handlers and coils before turnover, and we document the work so the owner and the contractor both have proof the system was handed over clean.
Who needs post-construction hvac cleaning
- General contractors closing out commercial projects
- Developers preparing new buildings for occupancy
- Tenant improvement and retail build-outs
- School and healthcare renovation projects
- Restaurant remodels before reopening
- Owners accepting a building from a contractor
Our process, step by step
Step 1
Coordinate with the GC
We schedule around the punch list so cleaning happens after dusty trades are finished.
Step 2
Inspect the system
Camera inspection confirms where construction debris has settled.
Step 3
Source removal
Ducts are cleaned under HEPA negative air with rotary brushes and air tools.
Step 4
Registers and units
Registers, diffusers, air handlers and coils are cleaned and filters replaced.
Step 5
Final walk
