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.

AfterAbatement Technologies Duct Repair & Sealing in Cumming: What to Know First
We provide independent Abatement Technologies duct repair and sealing in Cumming, with most residential jobs completed in a single scheduled visit and a written price delivered before any work begins. Abatement Technologies systems are common in newer Cumming construction, particularly the PREDATOR and HEPA-AIRE product lines, and their sealed-plenum designs require specific handling to maintain factory airflow ratings. Our crews carry Abatement Technologies-compatible components alongside our standard inventory of Rotobrush, Nikro, and Guardsman equipment, so we’re not ordering parts after we’ve already opened your system. If you own an Abatement Technologies air handler or negative-air machine and have noticed uneven temperatures, rising utility bills, or visible duct damage, call us at (678) 693-5322. We’ll schedule a free inspection, put a written estimate in your hand, and show you exactly what the camera sees before we touch a single fitting.
How Abatement Technologies Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- PREDATOR 600-series flex duct collapse at the plenum connection. The PREDATOR’s high-static blower can pull the inner liner away from the collar over time, especially in Cumming’s cooling-heavy climate where systems run eight months straight. We find a sagging or separated flex duct behind the air handler, photograph the gap, then reinstall with a mechanical collar and mastic sealant rated for the PREDATOR’s operating pressure.
- HEPA-AIRE portable units with cracked polycarbonate housings. The HEPA-AIRE’s housing flange sees stress from repeated transport and negative-pressure cycling. Hairline cracks at the filter-seal surface pull unfiltered attic air into the return stream. We replace the housing or fabricate a gasketed repair using Abatement Technologies OEM specs, then pressure-test to verify seal integrity.
- CAP600-UVP cabinet seams that open at the knockouts. Abatement Technologies cabinets ship with pre-scored access points that, if not fully sealed during original installation, whistle and leak conditioned air into mechanical closets. We seal with foil-backed mastic and mechanical fasteners, not tape alone, and document the pressure differential before and after.
- Return-air trunk separation in two-story Vickery-area homes. The long vertical drops common in Cumming’s 2015-2022 construction let Abatement Technologies systems develop gaps where the return trunk meets the platform return. Our camera shows the debris accumulation at the break; we repair with sheet-metal screws and a full mastic coat, then verify with a smoke pencil.
- Abatement Technologies flex duct rodent damage in crawl spaces. The silver jacket on Abatement Technologies flex is less rodent-resistant than some competitors’ products. We cut back to sound duct, install a rigid transition where access allows, and sleeve with Guardsman rodent barrier where the run remains flex.
Our Abatement Technologies Duct Repair & Sealing Process
- 1
Visual and camera inspection of every accessible duct run. We thread a borescope through the Abatement Technologies plenum and each branch, recording the actual condition. The camera doesn’t have an opinion - it just shows you what’s in there.
- 2
Written scope and price delivered before work starts. Haven Standard Clause 1: no exceptions. You’ll see line items for labor, materials, and any OEM-vs-aftermarket options with the price difference noted.
- 3
Parts selection with warranty implications explained. Abatement Technologies OEM collars and housings carry full compatibility guarantees; our quality aftermarket alternatives meet the same pressure specs at lower cost, and we note which choice affects any remaining manufacturer warranty.
- 4
Repair execution with the Abatement Technologies system powered down and locked out. We use Nikro negative-pressure containment if fiberglass duct board is disturbed, and Guardsman sealants rated for the operating temperatures of your specific model line.
- 5
Pressure test and airflow verification. We measure static pressure at the air handler and temperature differential at the furthest register, comparing against Abatement Technologies published performance data for your unit.
- 6
Documented Photo Record delivery and 365-Day Done Right Promise activation. Every before-and-after image, the written scope, and your warranty documentation are compiled in your job record before we leave.

Why Cumming Homeowners Call CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Cumming for Abatement Technologies Work
We’ve been running jobs across Cumming since 2013, and the Abatement Technologies systems we see here - particularly in the Vickery subdivision and the newer builds off Bethelview - have specific quirks that generic duct crews miss. Tomas Reyes and our technicians know the difference between a PREDATOR 600 and a CAP600-UVP cabinet, and we stock the collars, gaskets, and sealants those units need rather than improvising with universal parts. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise is backed in writing on every job, not buried in a policy manual. We’re also equipped to service Lennox, Trane, and Carrier systems, which matters in Cumming homes where the air handler and ductwork may be mismatched brands. Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews means your technician arrives background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name - no subcontractors, no surprises.
FAQs
Independent service does not automatically void an Abatement Technologies warranty, but using non-OEM parts for structural repairs can affect coverage for the specific component. We document whether we used Abatement Technologies OEM or quality aftermarket parts on your written scope, so you have a record if a warranty question arises later. Call (678) 693-5322 if you’d like us to review your warranty status before scheduling.
Most Abatement Technologies collars, gaskets, and small housings ship to our Cumming warehouse within three to five business days. We carry common PREDATOR and HEPA-AIRE repair components on our trucks, so roughly 70% of residential jobs need no wait. If your repair requires a specialized OEM part, we’ll tell you before we leave the inspection and schedule the return visit with the part in hand.
Replace when the ductwork is original flex past 20 years, when multiple trunk lines show degradation, or when the Abatement Technologies air handler itself is failing and the duct sizing doesn’t match modern equipment. Repair when the damage is localized, the duct is less than 15 years old, and the Abatement Technologies unit still meets your capacity needs. We’ll show you the camera evidence and give you both options in writing.
Your Documented Photo Record includes borescope images of every sealed joint, plus pre- and post-repair pressure readings. We also leave the smoke pencil test results in writing. If you can’t see it and measure it, it didn’t happen - that’s Haven Standard Clause 2.
We service both. The HEPA-AIRE and PREDATOR lines include commercial negative-air and portable units common in Cumming’s restoration and remediation market. Commercial jobs require a site visit for scope and pricing; the written estimate process is identical. Call (678) 693-5322 to schedule.
