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 Marietta: What to Know First
We provide independent Abatement Technologies duct repair and sealing in Marietta, typically completing scheduled jobs within one business day of your call. Every repair starts with a written price before any panel comes off, and every duct run is photographed before and after so you can verify the work yourself. If you own an Abatement Technologies HEPA-AIRE or PREDATOR series system and have noticed uneven airflow, rising utility bills, or dust pushing from registers that were clean last season, this page explains what we find and what we charge. Call (470) 516-9337 for a written estimate at no cost.
How Abatement Technologies Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- HEPA-AIRE SAH2-5 flex-duct collar fatigue. The rubberized collar connecting the main unit to your home’s flex duct run (the flexible tubing that carries conditioned air to each room) hardens after 6-8 years in Marietta’s humidity cycle. We see this most in homes near Kennesaw Mountain where summer attic temperatures spike. The collar cracks, pulling the connection loose and dumping conditioned air into the attic. We replace with Abatement Technologies-compatible collars or fabricate a mastic-sealed metal transition when the original part is backordered.
- PREDATOR 600 series plenum seam separation. The galvanized plenum (the metal box that distributes air from your unit into the duct branches) uses a rolled-edge seam design that can work loose under the vibration these high-CFM units produce. In Marietta, we find this on 2017-2020 installs more than any other vintage. The fix is re-seaming with S-cleats and a full mastic coat, not tape, because tape fails again in 18 months.
- HEPA-AIRE portable unit duct-adapter wear. The quick-connect adapters on portable negative-air machines see heavy cycle stress on remediation jobs. The locking lugs crack, creating a leak path that drops negative pressure below the -0.02 inches water column these units need for proper containment. We machine-fit replacement adapters or weld-repair the lug housing when the casting is sound.
- Abatement Technologies inline HEPA filter housing gasket compression set. The silicone gasket between the filter housing and duct flange takes a permanent set after 3-4 years, especially in homes that run the fan continuously. Air bypasses the filter entirely, which defeats the purpose of the HEPA stage. We replace with fresh gasket stock and torque the housing to manufacturer spec so the seal holds.
- Metal duct runs with Abatement Technologies collar retrofits. When previous installers adapted Abatement Technologies equipment to existing galvanized ductwork, they often used universal collars with undersized sheet-metal screws. Marietta’s clay-heavy soil settles gradually, stressing these joints until they whistle or leak. We pull the old collars, re-seat with proper gauge-matched screws, and seal with fiber-reinforced mastic rated for the temperature range.
Our Abatement Technologies Duct Repair & Sealing Process
- 1
Written estimate on arrival. We scope the full system with a camera, identify every leak point or failed joint, and give you a single written price before any work starts. Haven Standard Clause 1.
- 2
Parts verification. For Abatement Technologies equipment, we check whether OEM parts are in local stock or if a quality aftermarket equivalent meets the same pressure and temperature ratings. We document the choice in writing.
- 3
Repair execution. We replace or reseal failed components, using mastic sealant (a thick, brush-applied paste that hardens into a permanent airtight bond) on all joints, not tape. Every connection is photographed.
- 4
Pressure verification. We run a static pressure test across the repaired section to confirm the system operates within Abatement Technologies’ specified range.
- 5
Photo record delivery. You receive before-and-after images of every duct run we touched, plus the written scope and your 365-Day Done Right Promise documentation.
- 6
Cleanup and walkthrough. We leave the work area as we found it and review the photo record with you before collecting payment.

FAQs
No, independent duct repair does not void the equipment warranty as long as the work does not alter the unit’s electrical or mechanical design. We are an independent Abatement Technologies service provider, not an authorized dealer, and we document every repair with photographs so any future warranty claim has a clear record of what was touched and what was not. Call (470) 516-9337 if you want us to review your warranty terms before we start.
OEM collars and gaskets typically arrive in 2-4 business days from regional distributors in Atlanta; quality aftermarket equivalents for standard sizes are usually on our truck already. We tell you which route we’re taking before you agree to the repair, and we never charge you to wait. Call (470) 516-9337 for current availability on your specific model.
Replace when the unit is past 12 years and repair costs exceed 40% of replacement, or when multiple failure modes appear in a single inspection. We give you both numbers in writing so you can decide on evidence, not pressure. Call (470) 516-9337 for a free second opinion if another company has recommended replacement.
You receive dated before-and-after photographs of every duct run, plus static pressure readings showing the system holds spec. If the numbers do not improve, we do not charge for that portion of the repair. That’s Haven Standard Clause 5. Call (470) 516-9337 to schedule.
Most scheduled repairs are completed on the first visit because we stock common Abatement Technologies adapters, gasket material, and mastic-rated hardware.
