What local problems do Austin businesses run into?
Austin has a lot of new commercial construction, from strip centers to office suites to restaurants. Build-out dust often ends up in ducts before the first tenant moves in. Older buildings may have ducts that have not been opened in a long time.
- Restaurants: grease in hoods and exhaust ducts.
- Offices: dust from tenant improvements and from long cooling seasons.
- Retail spaces: dust from stock, packaging and heavy foot traffic.
- Medical and dental suites: cleanliness expectations and tight scheduling.
A hot cooling season also keeps rooftop units running for months, which loads coils and filters. If you manage a space with coil issues, see our blower and coil cleaning page.
