Get It Clean!

 Mike, our residential crew leader, took these photos at a residential jobsite last week.  Check out this "before" supply plenum:

Residential Supply Plenum- "Before"

Yuck!  All the white crusty stuff surrounding the damper is most likely composed of a combination of fungal growth, dust, and other harmful microbials.  If this homeowner has pets, there's probably some pet dander in there too.  Every time the homeowner turned on the a/c, he was breathing all that harmful stuff!

Mike cleaned the dirt and debris out of the supply plenum, then finished with an anti-fungal, anti-microbial coating to prevent any future growth.  Here's the "after" picture:

Much better!  This homeowner will be breathing easier for years to come.
