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.
Abatement Technologies Air Quality & Sanitizing in Alpharetta: What to Know First
We provide independent Abatement Technologies air quality and sanitizing service throughout Alpharetta, with most residential jobs completed in a single scheduled visit. A typical whole-system treatment runs $340-$780 depending on contamination level, duct configuration, and whether UV light installation is included - and we put that price in writing before any panel comes off. This page is for homeowners running Abatement Technologies HEPA-AIRE, CAP600, or PRED1200 series equipment who need mold treatment, bacteria sanitizing, odor removal, or UV/PCO upgrades done without voiding their unit warranty. Call (678) 679-7540 for a free estimate with no obligation to book.
How Abatement Technologies Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- CAP600-UV carbon cell saturation in Alpharetta’s pollen-heavy springs. The 16×25 carbon matrix loads with oak and pine particulate by late April, reducing VOC adsorption to below 40% efficiency. We pull the cell, photograph the loading pattern, and replace with OEM-spec carbon or upgrade to a 4-pound granular bed if chemical sensitivity is the primary concern.
- PRED1200 HEPA filter seal degradation after humid summers. The gasket channel on early PRED1200 units warps slightly above 85% RH, creating bypass leakage that dumps unfiltered return air into the supply plenum. We replace the factory gasket with silicone-foam compression seal rated for Georgia humidity cycles, then verify zero bypass with a smoke pencil test.
- HEPA-AIRE portable negative-air machine HEPA frame corrosion. The aluminum HEPA frame on units used in basement mold remediation develops galvanic corrosion where the frame meets the steel cabinet. We document the corrosion stage, replace with stainless or coated frames depending on remaining service life, and treat the cabinet interior with EPA-registered antimicrobial.
- CAP600-UV UV-C lamp output decay at 9,000 hours. The 254nm lamp continues to glow but drops below 40 µW/cm² at the duct surface, which is the threshold for effective microbial inactivation. We meter the actual output at the coil face, replace with Abatement-specified 55W T5 UV lamp or equivalent, and log the install date for the next cycle.
- PRED1200 blower motor bearing wear from construction debris in new Alpharetta builds. We’ve found drywall compound and wood framing particles in the blower housing of PRED1200 units installed during 2018-2022 construction near Avalon and Windward. The abrasive dust accelerates bearing wear and throws the wheel out of balance. We clean the housing with HEPA-contained negative-pressure extraction, replace bearings if runout exceeds 0.002″, and rebalance the assembly on a dynamic balancer.
Our Abatement Technologies Air Quality & Sanitizing Process

- 1
Visual intake with the camera. We insert a borescope through the supply and return registers before touching equipment. The camera goes in first. Everything else follows from what it shows.
- 2
Contamination mapping and written scope. We mark every duct run with particulate depth measurements, note microbial staining locations, and identify odor sources. The customer receives this document before pricing.
- 3
Equipment isolation and HEPA-contained extraction. We seal the Abatement Technologies unit with poly sheeting, establish negative pressure at the plenum, and agitate debris with Rotobrush contact cleaning or Nikro skipper balls depending on duct material.
- 4
Sanitizing treatment matched to findings. For light organic loading we apply Guardsman EPA-registered botanical sanitizer. For confirmed mold growth we deploy Abatement Technologies-compatible antimicrobial with 7-day residual activity, applied at manufacturer-specified dilution to protect warranty coverage.
- 5
UV or PCO upgrade if indicated. We size UV-C output to the coil surface area and install Honeywell or Aprilaire PCO cells only where airflow velocity supports effective dwell time.
- 6
Post-treatment documentation and test. We photograph every treated run, measure final static pressure, and deliver the photo record with the written scope and 365-Day Done Right Promise.

AfterWhat Abatement Technologies Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Alpharetta
| Service | Typical Range | What Moves the Price |
|---|---|---|
| Whole-system duct sanitizing (no UV) | $340-$520 | Number of duct runs, contamination severity, access difficulty in crawlspaces or attic plenums |
| Mold treatment with HEPA extraction | $480-$780 | Lab-confirmed species requiring specific antimicrobial, extent of growth beyond ductwork into plenum or coil pan |
| UV-C lamp installation (single lamp) | $280-$420 | Lamp wattage, 120V vs. 24V ballast, whether new mounting bracket is needed for Abatement Technologies cabinet |
| PCO air purifier add-on | $380-$560 | Cell capacity matched to system CFM, replacement cell availability |
| Odor removal with ozone or hydroxyl | $320-$580 | Source accessibility, number of treatment cycles needed, whether source removal is required first |

Why Alpharetta Homeowners Call CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Alpharetta for Abatement Technologies Work

We’ve worked on Abatement Technologies equipment in Alpharetta since 2013, from the original HEPA-AIRE negative-air units to the current CAP600-UV line. Tomas Reyes, our owner, learned the mechanical trades at Bronx Community College and spent years on HVAC systems in the Northeast before relocating the business south. He knows the Abatement Technologies product line well enough to spot when a “mold problem” is actually a failed UV lamp letting the coil biofilm grow unchecked.
Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. We also service Lennox, Trane, and Carrier air quality equipment, which matters when your home has mixed-brand components or when the Abatement Technologies unit interfaces with a different manufacturer’s air handler. Every job ends with a Documented Photo Record of every duct run, included as standard, not an upsell. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is backed in writing on every invoice. If the work is not right, we make it right.
FAQs
No, if the work is performed with manufacturer-compatible products and documented. We use EPA-registered antimicrobials at Abatement Technologies-specified dilutions and log all treatments in your job record for warranty support. Call (678) 679-7540 if you need documentation for a warranty claim.
OEM lamps guarantee the rated 254nm output and fitment, but quality aftermarket T5 UV lamps from recognized manufacturers perform equivalently at lower cost if they carry the same µW/cm² rating and 9,000-hour rated life. We stock both and explain the trade-off in writing before you decide.
We deliver before-and-after photos of every duct run showing contamination removal, plus post-treatment static pressure readings and a written scope of what was applied where. For mold jobs we can coordinate third-party post-clearance sampling at additional cost. The documentation is your proof.
The odor is almost always microbial growth on the evaporator coil or in the condensate pan, not the filter. The PRED1200’s compact cabinet design limits coil access for homeowner cleaning. We remove the blower assembly, clean the coil with HEPA-contained contact methods, treat with antimicrobial, and verify UV coverage if a lamp is present. Call (678) 679-7540 for an inspection.
Every 3-5 years for typical Alpharetta homes without pets or allergy concerns. Homes near active construction, with multiple pets, or with occupants sensitive to mold or VOCs benefit from 2-3 year intervals. We base the recommendation on what the camera shows, not a calendar.
Ready to schedule? Call (678) 679-7540 for a free estimate on your Abatement Technologies system. We’ll put a written price in front of you before any work starts, and you’ll receive a Documented Photo Record of every duct run when we finish.
