Cleaner Living Spaces

When ducts are dirty, they blow dust onto your walls, furniture, and floors. After a professional cleaning, you’ll notice a dramatic improvement in how clean your home stays.

Our Air Duct Cleaning Process

From homes to businesses, our duct cleaning boosts the air quality in your space. When you need professional air duct service, call Nichols Mechanical.

Our licensed technicians use specialized tools with contact vacuuming to loosen and capture dust and debris—without reintroducing pollutants into your air.

To prevent particles like dust and pollen from spreading, we use HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) vacuum equipment or systems that vent contaminants outside the building.

1. Request a Quote

Call or message Nichols Mechanical to get started on cleaner indoor air. We’ll collect a few HVAC details and send a quick, no-obligation quote outlining the benefits of our duct cleaning.

2. Book Your Appointment

After you receive your quote, we’ll book a time that fits your schedule. We’ll also send clear pre-service steps—like clearing space around HVAC registers—so our technicians can work efficiently with minimal disruption.

3. Arrival & Safety Prep

Our professional team arrives on time with floor and surface protection. We take every precaution to keep your home clean and safe—demonstrating our unwavering commitment to quality.

4. Remove HVAC Registers

We remove each register cover to gain full access to the ductwork. This key step prevents airflow problems and sets the stage for a thorough cleaning—even in hard-to-reach areas.

5. Setup the HEPA Vacuum

We place a HEPA vacuum at the return vent to capture dust, allergens, and other loosened contaminants. This prevents re-circulation and helps maintain cleaner indoor air.

6. Compressed Air and Scrub Ducts

Our technicians combine compressed air with brush agitation to dislodge dust, debris, and allergens from every section of your ductwork. This deep clean boosts HVAC efficiency and improves your indoor air.

7. Extract the Dust

Right after treatment, we use a high-powered vacuum to remove the loosened dust and debris from your ducts—an essential step that boosts airflow and leaves your home with cleaner, low-allergen air.

8. Clean the HVAC Equipment

We thoroughly service your HVAC system—acid-washing the coils and cleaning the heater, condensate drain, and drip pan. This deep clean boosts safety, extends equipment life, and improves indoor air quality for peak performance.

9. Reinstall Registers & Cleanup

Once the cleaning is complete, we replace all register covers to restore proper airflow and a clean, finished look. We then do a final sweep, removing any remaining dust and debris for a spotless home.

10. Final Walkthrough

We finish with a comprehensive final inspection of your HVAC system and all serviced areas. Then we review the results with you, answer any questions, and confirm you’re fully satisfied—underscoring our commitment to excellence.

Fair pricing, honest technicians. On time. Really cared. Respectful to my wife. Kept us up to date on progression of repairs. Very safety concerned. Couldn’t ask for better results. I will recommend them exclusively.
We’ve used Nichols Mechanical a couple times now and have always been happy with their work. Michael Searcy was really friendly and knowledgeable and fixed our problem within an hour of getting here. It’s always good to know a reliable AC mechanic in Arizona!
Ive had the opportunity to work with Nichols mechanical over a dozen times now. Working at an apartment complex we have a lot of units that need service. I can’t express how much I appreciate everyone on their team. But Michael has been our saving grace. It doesn’t matter if it raining, snowing , or 115°. Michael is there with a smile on his face checking every component for failure. He is super thorough, efficient, and one of the smartest technicians I’ve worked with. You can tell he loves what he does. I can always trust him to get the job done.

The technician from Nichols was awesome. Here on time and fixed our coolant leak which we were told was going to cost us thousands and did it no charge except for the service call charge. Highly recommending. Will definitely call them next time we have any issues.
I would seriously recommend Nichols Mechanical. It’s good to know there are still some great, courteous, kind, and honest company’s that simply want to get it done. I get it having a window between 12-2 but when the tech calls as requested and shows up before the “window” that’s just customer service. From the office staff to the rock star tech, Steven, who was on the phone with the Home Warranty company to make the repair as I drove up to the house. Amazing service!
Michael at Nichols Mechanical is super knowledgeable and quickly diagnosed and resolved our AC capacitor issue. He explains in detail the problem and normal vs abnormal levels in each system.
