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.
Abatement Technologies Coil Cleaning: The Marietta Owner’s Guide
We stock and install coil cleaning for Abatement Technologies HVAC systems in Marietta, with most jobs running $340-$620 depending on system size and accessibility. Most coil cleaning appointments are scheduled within 48 hours, and we carry the common Abatement Technologies-compatible foaming agents and rinse treatments on every truck. Homeowners near the Marietta Square usually figure out something is wrong when their upstairs never cools below 78 degrees in July despite the compressor running nonstop, or when they spot ice forming on the refrigerant lines outside.
Which Abatement Technologies Models This Applies To
Abatement Technologies builds coil cleaning solutions across several equipment lines, and matching the right chemistry and pressure rating to your system matters more than most owners realize. The CAP600 series, HEPA-AIRE portable units, and the larger PAS2400 negative-air machines each use different coil geometries - aluminum fin spacing ranges from 8 to 14 fins per inch, and using the wrong foaming cleaner can corrode the softer aluminum used in the CAP line. We check the equipment label inside the access panel, measure fin density with a fin comb, and cross-reference against the manufacturer’s coil treatment bulletin before mixing any solution.
OEM Abatement Technologies coil cleaner runs about 30% higher than the quality aftermarket equivalent we use, which is formulated to the same NSF/non-corrosive standard and carries the same 5-year coil integrity warranty. The aftermarket product we stock is manufactured by a supplier that also produces for Nikro and Rotobrush - brands we have used since 2013 - so the chemistry is verifiable, not mystery fluid. For systems still under manufacturer warranty, we document the cleaner’s compliance with Abatement Technologies spec 4.2.1 so the warranty stays intact. CleanRun Duct Repair & Cleaning is an independent service provider; we are not affiliated with Abatement Technologies.
Signs Your Abatement Technologies Coil Cleaning Is Failing

- Ice buildup on the evaporator coil or suction line. When the coil is caked with biofilm and dust, airflow drops and the refrigerant temperature falls below freezing. The ice you see outside starts at the coil inside, and by the time it is visible on the line set, the coil is usually 40% blocked.
- Musty, sour smell from every register when the AC kicks on. That odor is bacterial growth on the coil fins, thriving in the condensation that Georgia humidity guarantees. We have pulled coils in Marietta homes near Kennesaw Mountain where the biofilm was thick enough to see without a scope.
- System runs for hours but the thermostat never satisfies. A dirty coil cannot exchange heat efficiently, so the compressor works longer for the same cooling output. Your electric bill climbs before you notice the comfort problem.
- Water pooling below the air handler. Debris on the coil disrupts proper condensate drainage, causing overflow from the pan. In attics over finished space, this shows up as a ceiling stain before anyone checks the HVAC.
- Visible gray or black matting on the coil when you remove the access panel. This is the symptom most owners catch too late - by the time the coil is visibly fouled, the blower motor is already working harder and drawing more amps than spec.

AfterReplacement Cost & What’s Included
Coil cleaning for Abatement Technologies systems in Marietta runs $340-$620 installed, with the range driven by three factors we put in writing before any work starts. Smaller CAP-series units with front-access coils sit at the lower end; PAS2400 systems in cramped attics over East Cobb homes, where we disassemble ductwork to reach the coil, run higher due to labor time. The price includes foaming cleaner application, low-pressure rinse (never high-pressure, which bends fins), fin straightening where needed, and a post-cleaning photo record of the coil surface delivered to you as part of the standard job record.
Every coil cleaning carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise - if the coil fouls again due to incomplete cleaning, we return and make it right. Haven Standard Clause 1 applies: the written price you approve is the price on the invoice. No per-vent add-ons, no “discovered additional contamination” upsells. The camera doesn’t lie - and neither does the invoice.
DIY or Call Us?

There is a safe middle ground here, and then there is the point where DIY costs more than the service call. What you can check yourself: verify the filter is clean, confirm the condensate drain is not clogged with algae, and look through the access panel for visible coil matting without touching anything. What goes wrong when owners push further: store-bought foaming cleaners with unlisted pH levels that etch aluminum fins in two seasons; pressure washers that fold fins into solid sheets; and bent coil tubing that leaks refrigerant and turns a $400 cleaning into a $2,400 coil replacement.
The coil sits downstream of your electrical components and above the blower motor, so there is no truly safe DIY deep clean without isolating power and understanding the refrigerant loop. We are background-checked, uniformed technicians operating under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews, and we carry the right chemistry for your specific Abatement Technologies fin density. Call (470) 516-9337 for a written estimate - we will put the scope and price in writing before any panel comes off.
FAQs
In the humid subtropical conditions around Marietta, with pollen counts that peak in March and September, we see coils need professional cleaning every 24 to 36 months for homes with standard 1-inch filters changed quarterly. Homes with pets or near construction may need annual service. Call (470) 516-9337 and we will assess your specific system load.
No - once biofilm and debris have bonded to the aluminum fins, physical removal is the only fix. “Repair” in this context means straightening bent fins or patching refrigerant leaks caused by corrosion, which we address only after the coil is clean and we can inspect the surface properly. Call (470) 516-9337 for a written scope and price.
Most Abatement Technologies coil cleanings take 90 minutes to 2.5 hours from arrival to photo documentation, depending on system location and how much disassembly the access requires. We schedule a 3-hour window and finish early when possible. Call (470) 516-9337 to book.
Yes - we carry NSF-certified foaming cleaner matched to both the CAP and PAS series fin densities, plus the low-pressure rinse equipment that protects coil integrity. For the rare Abatement Technologies configuration we have not encountered, we order the specific bulletin and chemistry before the appointment, never improvising with generic product. Call (470) 516-9337 to confirm compatibility with your model number.
