Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Bexley’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company

Hollis has been part of the Garrison Partners family since 2004, and our Bexley reputation was built on showing up inside the quoted window and leaving the price where we wrote it. Homeowners here talk. When a crew walks into a 1927 center-hall Colonial and knows not to treat the original galvanized tin like modern flex duct, word gets around.

Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and expected to follow The Garrison Code on every job: arrive inside the window, price in writing, complete the work by the book, leave the site clean. No exceptions. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every repair in writing. If the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit.

Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail loops, no callback queues, no waiting until Monday for a scheduling question.

Residential Air Duct Cleaning in Bexley

Residential Air Duct Cleaning in Bexley means working on homes where the ductwork predates the homeowner by decades. Most calls we get here are for original 1920s – 50s systems: uninsulated galvanized tin trunks buried in plaster-and-lath walls, with branch runs that were sized for coal-fired gravity furnaces and later adapted to forced-air cooling. The job isn’t running a vacuum through modern flex duct. It’s restoring sheet-metal trunk lines that have been shedding rust scale and dust through 70 – 90 years of central Ohio summers and winters.

Because Bexley’s pre-WWII housing stock is one of the most intact in the Columbus area, our Air Duct Cleaning team approaches these homes with rotary brush systems and negative-air machines, not hardware-store attachments. We camera-inspect before we quote, so the price you see is the price on the invoice.

Supply Duct Cleaning

Supply trunks in Bexley’s older homes were sized for gravity heat, not the static pressure of modern central air. We use Rotobrush rotary agitation to loosen buildup in the original galvanized lines, then extract with Nikro negative-air machines and HEPA filtration. The goal is removing rust scale and dust without damaging tin that’s already thinner from age.

Return System Restoration

Returns are where Bexley homes show their age. Original “cold air” grilles get covered during kitchen remodels or basement finishes. We camera-inspect to find blocked or undersized returns, then quote reconnection or resizing separately from the cleaning itself. Cleaning a return that isn’t connected to the system is just moving air around.

Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Bexley

Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Bexley covers the small professional offices along Main Street, the retail spaces near Capital University, and the mixed-use buildings that line the historic corridors. These systems are newer than the residential stock but face their own problems: rooftop units that run continuously through humid summers, shared return plenums between tenants, and maintenance deferred across multiple property owners.

We use Abatement Technologies portable HEPA units and Nikro negative-air machines sized for commercial static pressure. Every job gets a written price before work starts and the same 365-Day Done Right Promise that covers our residential work.

Multi-Tenant System Cleaning

Shared ductwork in Bexley’s older commercial buildings means contamination travels between suites. We seal off zones before cleaning, run continuous negative pressure during the job, and provide before-and-after photos of each trunk section. Property managers get documentation for tenant files and insurance records.

Rooftop Unit and Exhaust Cleaning

Central Ohio’s 90-degree dew points in July and August load Bexley’s commercial rooftop units with condensate and biological growth. We clean the supply and return plenums, treat drain pans, and inspect accessible flex connections for collapse or rodent damage. The work is quoted flat per system, not per vent.

Trusted Brands We Service in Bexley

Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems, Nikro negative-air machines, and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Abatement Technologies. These are the same tools commercial crews use in hospitals and schools, not the hardware-store vacuums some competitors bring to a job. We stock common fittings and filtration media for Bexley customers, so replacements don’t wait on shipping. When a 1950s galvanized trunk needs a custom transition to connect to a modern air handler, we fabricate it on site rather than forcing a mismatched part.

Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Bexley Homes

• Crushed branch runs behind plaster. On a center-hall Colonial Revival near South Remington Road, our tech ran a camera inspection and found a crushed 6-inch galvanized branch run hidden behind plaster and lath, plus a return grille that had been covered over during a 1990s remodel. We used agitation tools and negative pressure with HEPA filtration to pull decades of rust and dust from the original trunk line, reconnected the branch, and installed a proper return to restore airflow before sealing the accessible tin. The blower motor amp draw dropped back into spec and the homeowner noticed better cooling on the second floor the same week.
• Interior rust from summer condensation. Central Ohio’s humid summers mean 90-degree days with dew points in the 70s. That moisture condenses on the interior of uninsulated 1920s – 50s tin ducts, especially in Bexley’s unfinished basements where trunk lines run exposed. Come October, the rust dries and sheds into the airstream. Cleaning without sealing pinholes and joints leaves the problem cycling every season.
• Covered-over cold air returns. The original gravity returns in Bexley’s pre-war homes were large grilles on walls or floors. During basement finishing or kitchen expansion in the 1980s and 90s, contractors often covered them without resizing the return path for forced air. The system runs starved for return air, working harder and moving less. A crew that doesn’t camera-inspect will clean ducts that aren’t functionally connected to the air handler.
• Undersized returns force-fit to modern equipment. Original “cold air” returns in Bexley’s brick Tudors and Colonial Revivals were designed for the low static pressure of gravity furnaces. Modern air handlers need more return volume. Cleaning alone doesn’t fix the mismatch. We flag it during inspection and quote return modification separately, with the homeowner’s choice to proceed or not.
