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.

How Nikro Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Nikro PS1000 and PS2000 portable air scrubber series: The HEPA-seal gasket on these units hardens after 18-24 months in Georgia’s humidity, creating a bypass path that lets unfiltered air recirculate. We replace the factory gasket with a silicone-rated upgrade and photograph the seal compression test so you can see the pressure differential reading.
- Nikro SL2000 and SL4000 negative-air machines: The blower motor bearing fails prematurely when used on long-duration mold remediation jobs in Marietta’s crawl spaces, where ambient moisture stays above 60% for half the year. We source OEM-spec bearings through our Abatement Technologies supply chain and document the amp-draw before-and-after.
- Nikro UV-C lamp housings (UVC-14 and UVC-24 series): The quartz sleeve clouds with mineral scale from condensate splash in downflow furnaces common in 1990s Marietta ranch builds. We remove the sleeve, treat with chelating agent, and reinstall - or replace with a Guardsman-compatible sleeve if the etching is past recovery. The camera shows the difference.
- Nikro aerosol sealant and sanitizing injectors (AI-100, AI-200): The ceramic nozzle orifice widens after 40-50 hours of atomized sanitizer run time, producing droplets too large to suspend in ductwork. We mic the orifice, replace with matched ceramic, and verify particle size with a handheld laser counter - a step most crews skip because the machine still “runs.”
- Nikro HEPA vacuum canister seals on the LV200 and LV400 series: The latch mechanism fatigues from thermal cycling in unconditioned attics around Kennesaw Mountain, where summer deck temperatures exceed 140°F. We fit a stainless-steel latch kit and test to 2.0 inches water column negative pressure, documenting the hold on your job record.

FAQs
Does CleanRun’s work void my Nikro warranty?
No - as an independent Nikro service provider, we use manufacturer-specified parts and practices that preserve existing warranty coverage where applicable. We note any warranty-sensitive procedures on your written scope before starting. Call (470) 516-9337 to review your specific Nikro model.
How do I know the sanitizing was actually done?
Every duct run is photographed before and after, and you receive the photo record as a standard deliverable. For UV installations, we include the irradiance meter reading at lamp surface. If you want verification beyond our documentation, we welcome third-party post-testing at your discretion.
Should I repair my Nikro air scrubber or replace it?
Replace if the unit is over 7 years old and requires motor or blower housing work exceeding 60% of replacement cost - we put both numbers in writing under our Free Second Opinion policy. Repair if it’s a seal, gasket, or lamp issue on a unit with documented service history.
Are OEM Nikro parts always available?
Most consumables - filters, lamps, gaskets - are available within 2-3 business days through our supply chain. Some legacy PS-series blower components are on extended manufacturer lead time; when this occurs, we source quality aftermarket equivalents and disclose the substitution in writing with performance spec.
How often does Nikro UV equipment need service in Marietta?
Lamp replacement every 9,000-12,000 hours of operation, typically 12-14 months in continuous-run installations. Quartz sleeve inspection annually - Georgia’s hard water and high humidity accelerate scale buildup compared to drier climates. We note the install date and set a reminder on your job record.
