HVAC Coil & Blower Cleaning in Fort Myers, FL

Your evaporator coil and blower wheel are the heart of your HVAC system — and the dirtiest. A 1/8" layer of dust on the coil can cut efficiency by 20% and force the system to run 30% longer to hit the thermostat. We clean both, restore proper airflow, and most homes see a measurable drop in AC runtime within a week.

Bastion Duct Solutions provides air duct and dryer vent cleaning across Fort Myers and the broader Lee County market — Cape Coral, Estero, Bonita Springs, Lehigh Acres, and Sanibel. Post-Hurricane Ian moisture, year-round AC use, and constant Gulf-coast humidity continue to drive mold and biofilm buildup inside Fort Myers ductwork. Every cleaning uses truck-mounted negative-air HEPA vacuums and includes optional EPA-registered antimicrobial fog for storm-affected homes.

• Post-Hurricane Ian moisture and visible mold inside Fort Myers and Cape Coral ductwork

4. Clean Blower Wheel: Remove the blower wheel, wash, and reinstall — this is where the dirtiest buildup lives.
5. Reassemble & Test: Reseal the access panel, restore power, and verify proper airflow and temperature drop.

HVAC Coil & Blower Cleaning FAQs — Fort Myers

Is this the same as an HVAC tune-up?

No — a tune-up is a check by an HVAC technician. We clean. We're the right call when your system is running but inefficient; call an HVAC tech for refrigerant, electrical, or mechanical repairs.

Will this fix a frozen AC line?

Sometimes — a dirty coil is one of the top causes of frozen evaporator lines. If freezing persists after cleaning, you likely have a refrigerant or airflow problem that needs an HVAC tech.

Should I do this with my duct cleaning?

Yes — bundling saves a service-call charge and the coil/blower are inside the same system we're cleaning anyway.

How long does it take?

1–2 hours for most residential systems. Larger multi-zone systems take longer.
