The right system
Our goal is to install the right HVAC system for your home
We design and install a range of high-efficiency heating and cooling systems, including heat pumps that suit our mild, damp climate, with competitive warranties. Our technicians identify which system will perform most efficiently in your home, and our own trained crew installs it.
With lots of top-quality models to choose from, you get the comfort you want and the efficiency you pay for.
What we do
Heating, cooling and ductwork under one roof
Ductless mini-splits
Efficient heating and cooling for rooms without ducts.
Air duct cleaning
Dust, debris and allergens removed from your ductwork.
Maintenance plans
Regular service to keep your system efficient.
Air duct cleaning
Cleaner ducts, healthier air
Ductwork is easy to forget because it's hidden behind walls and above ceilings, but neglected ducts circulate dust, mold, bacteria and allergens through your home. Our trained technicians remove them.
1
Inspect
We inspect the ducts that lead to the return and supply registers, so any leaks, kinks or damage can be repaired.
2
Negative pressure
A powerful HEPA vacuum is connected near the air handler and registers are closed to maximize suction.
3
Agitate
Rotating brushes and compressed-air whips loosen settled dust and buildup in supply and return ducts.
4
Check the whole system
We check the furnace, blower, coil and drain pan, clean up, and walk you through the results.
How often should ducts be cleaned?
Manufacturers recommend a yearly HVAC inspection, and NADCA recommends duct cleaning every 3 to 5 years, more often with pets or allergy sufferers in the home. Signs it worked: less dust, fewer allergens and odors, and a quieter, more efficient system.
Why it matters
A properly installed system pays you back
A well-installed HVAC system does more than hold a temperature.
- Filters pollutants and allergens for cleaner indoor air
- Keeps temperature and humidity steady, which helps prevent mold and mildew
- Runs more efficiently and quietly, for lower energy costs
- Backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee

★★★★★
“We moved into a new home that had rodents in the attics. Attic Crew was respectful, polite, and well-priced. Zabi was the Project Manager for our project and he takes such great joy in his work. He spent hours making sure all entry points were sealed and provided before and after photos. He used top tier insulation and cleaned our attic spaces to perfection.”
★★★★★
“I had a fantastic experience working with the Attic Crew. The fact that they are a one stop shop for clean up, rodent control and insulation made everything so simple and seamless. Their bid was competitive and their quality is excellent. This is definitely the company you want to work with.”
★★★★★
“After 19 years, my crawl space was a disgusting mess due to being inhabited by rodents. Jay came to my home to make an inspection and recommendations. He showed me photos of the problem and explained exactly what was needed to be done. Two weeks later as planned, Wais came out with the crew right on time. When the job was completed, I was again shown with photos exactly what was done and was beyond satisfied with…”
Common questions
HVAC and Air Duct Systems FAQ
Which brands do you install?
We're a Bryant and Mitsubishi Electric authorized dealer in the Seattle metro, which gives us access to some of the best heating and cooling equipment in the industry.
How often should air ducts be cleaned?
Manufacturers recommend yearly HVAC inspections, and NADCA recommends duct cleaning every 3 to 5 years. Homes with pets or allergy sufferers may need it more often.
How much does air duct cleaning cost?
It depends on the size and complexity of your duct system. We'll assess it and give you a firm quote.
Is a heat pump a good choice in Seattle?
For many homes, yes. Our mild winters suit heat pumps well, and one system handles both heating and cooling. We'll look at your home, ducts and budget and recommend the best fit.
Should I replace my ducts when I replace my system?
Often, yes. A new system connected to leaky or undersized ducts won't deliver the efficiency you paid for. We'll inspect your ducts and tell you honestly whether they need replacing.
