Air Handler Cleaning Services in Austin, TX
Air handlers are critical components of commercial HVAC systems and often collect moisture, dust, and microbial buildup over time. The Steam Team provides professional air handler cleaning in Austin, helping protect system performance, indoor air quality, and regulatory compliance.
Because air handlers control airflow distribution throughout your building, any contamination within these units can impact the entire HVAC system. Dirty air handlers contribute to odors, reduced airflow, moisture issues, and mold concerns — making regular cleaning essential for commercial facilities.
Our air handler cleaning services are designed to restore proper airflow, improve HVAC efficiency, and support a cleaner, healthier indoor environment for employees and visitors.

AHU Components We Clean
Air Handling Units (AHUs) consist of multiple components that must function together efficiently. Our commercial air handler cleaning targets all critical parts, including:
✔ Coils
Dirty coils restrict airflow and reduce heat exchange efficiency.
✔ Drain Pans
Standing water can cause microbial growth and odors.
✔ Blowers & Fans
Build-up on fan blades reduces airflow and strains motors.
✔ Filters & Filter Housings
Ensures proper filtration and prevents bypass contamination.
✔ Interior Cabinet Surfaces
Removes dust, moisture, and residue that affect air quality.
This comprehensive approach ensures your AHU operates safely and efficiently.
Mold Prevention & Moisture Control
Air handlers are especially prone to moisture accumulation, making them a common source of mold growth within HVAC systems.
Air handler cleaning helps:
✔ Eliminate moisture-related buildup
✔ Prevent mold and microbial growth
✔ Reduce musty odors
✔ Protect downstream ductwork
✔ Support indoor air quality compliance
By addressing contamination at the source, we help prevent system-wide air quality issues before they spread.
