The hottest part of the county is hard on a duct system

Runtime, not age, wears systems outWoodland Hills regularly posts the highest temperature in Los Angeles County on summer afternoons. An air conditioner here can run most of the day for weeks at a stretch, which means the same ducts move several times the volume of air a coastal house moves in a season.
Brush and fire seasonThe south side of the neighbourhood runs up against the Santa Monica Mountains. Dry season dust and wildfire smoke get pulled into the return and stay in the system long after the air outside has cleared.
1950s tract constructionWalnut Acres, the streets off Vanowen and much of the flat grid went up quickly in the post-war boom. Duct runs were short on insulation and long on joints, and sixty years of expansion and contraction has opened most of those joints up.
Warner Center towers and condosHigh-rise and mid-rise units have their own problem: shared risers, small closet-mounted air handlers and filters that nobody has looked at since the last tenant. We work on those too.

What we do on site

  1. Look before quoting anything extra. We open the return and a couple of registers and show you the inside on camera. Clean system, no charge, we leave.
  2. Whole system under negative pressure. Everything we loosen goes out to the machine rather than into your living room.
  3. Brush every run. Rotating brush and air whip through each supply and each return. This is the part that takes the time and the part that actually works.
  4. Registers off and washed, plenum and blower wiped. The grilles in a Woodland Hills house are usually the dirtiest visible thing in it.
  5. Photos before we leave. Straight to your phone.

Timing it right in Woodland Hills

The useful window here is spring — March to May. Doing it before the first heat wave means the system starts the hard season clean, and you are not trying to book a technician in the same week as everyone else whose AC has just started smelling.

Interval: three to five years for an ordinary household. Sooner after a remodel, sooner with multiple pets, sooner if the house sat through a fire season with the windows open.

After a fire

If there has been smoke in the area and your system was running, the ash is in the ductwork. That is worth dealing with properly rather than waiting to see whether the smell fades on its own.

Common questions

Will this help with the heat?It will not make a small unit big. What it does is stop a restricted system from working harder than it needs to, which is worth something in July.
I live in a Warner Center condo. Can you even do it?Usually yes. Send a photo of your air handler closet and we will tell you straight away.
How long?Thirty to sixty minutes for a typical single-system house. Two units means roughly double.
Price?Depends on runs and condition. Photos of the return and registers get you a same-day number without anyone coming out.
