In-Depth Air Handler Cleaning & Coil Pull-and-Clean
When preventative maintenance isn’t enough, Five Star Heating and Air LLC offers in-depth cleaning to remove accumulated dirt and buildup from your indoor evaporator coil, blower assembly, drain pan, and drain line. Cleaning these components can help improve airflow, heat transfer, and system performance.
“Experienced Service You Can Trust.”
Service Pricing
Evaporator coil pull-and-clean: Starting at $395. The coil is removed and cleaned outside the unit. Filter drier replacement is additional.
16-cubic-inch refrigerant filter drier replacement: $240.
Blower assembly pull-and-clean: Starting at $195 for most assemblies, or $225 for variable-speed blower assemblies.
Full in-depth service starts at $830 for the coil pull-and-clean, filter drier replacement, and standard blower assembly cleaning. With a variable-speed blower assembly, the starting total is $860.
The full service also includes drain pan and drain line cleaning, with drain line detergent gel to help reduce slime buildup—a $40 value. We replace the air filter only when the customer provides a replacement.
--These totals exclude the initial evaluation, additional refrigerant, other required parts or repairs, and additional attic labor.--
--Our Cleaning Process--
When system conditions allow, we pump the refrigerant into the outdoor unit to retain as much of the existing charge as possible. We remove and disassemble the evaporator coil as needed, clean it outside the air handler with a biodegradable coil cleaner, and reinstall it.
We braze while flowing nitrogen, pressure-check opened sections with dry nitrogen, and pull a deep vacuum below 500 microns before returning the system to service. Filter drier replacement is included in the full-service pricing above and is charged separately when quoting the coil pull-and-clean alone.
We do not perform in-place evaporator coil cleaning unless a commercial setting calls for it. Or the system is a package unit
-Evaluation & Scheduling-
An initial visit is required to assess the system and determine which services are needed. A $110 diagnostic service call or $180 preventative maintenance service, depending on the purpose of the visit, is charged separately from the cleaning.
Diagnostic service is for equipment that is not working properly. Preventative maintenance is for operational equipment.
Cleaning is recommended based on the system’s condition. A full air-handler cleaning may take 4–12 hours, depending on accessibility, buildup, and system conditions. Attic systems require additional labor and cost more.
If Emergency Refrigerant Recovery Is Needed
If emergency recovery becomes necessary during an on-site pull-and-clean on a residential split system, up to 15 pounds of refrigerant recovery is included. Recovery above that allowance, commercial recovery, and recovery in other situations are charged at $15 per pound.
Recovery charges cover removing refrigerant. Any additional refrigerant needed to recharge the system is charged separately by the pound.
Important Service Terms
Every job is different. Additional parts, refrigerant, or repairs may be needed, increasing the total cost. There are no guarantees on existing older parts or components.
We clean the air handler—not the home. Cleaning the surrounding closet and exterior of the air handler remains the homeowner’s responsibility.
Military members, retired military members, firefighters, and police officers receive 10% off. Eligibility must be mentioned over the phone when scheduling. Restrictions apply. Discounts and offers cannot be combined.
