HVAC System Inspections

NADCA-Certified Inspections & Compliance Documentation

An HVAC system inspection is a documented assessment of the air handling unit, coils, drain pan, and supply and return ductwork for dust loading, microbial growth, moisture, pest activity, and construction debris, following NADCA's ACR Standard. SaniTech Services performs inspections for facilities and homes across Long Island and New York City and reports whether cleaning is warranted, with photographs and a written scope when it is.

A thorough HVAC system inspection by SaniTech's NADCA-certified technicians identifies contamination, mechanical issues, and air quality concerns before they become major problems. Our detailed inspection reports give facility managers and building owners the documentation they need for compliance, maintenance planning, and bid requirements.

What We Check

A full-system inspection follows the NADCA ACR Standard and covers:

  • Air handling unit interior: blower, housing, heat exchanger or coil face, drain pan, and filter rack.
  • Supply and return ductwork at representative access points, with photographs of surface loading.
  • Registers, grilles, and diffusers for discharge debris.
  • Signs of moisture, microbial growth, pest activity, or construction debris.
  • Filtration type, fit, and change interval.

When an Inspection Leads to a Cleaning

Cleaning is recommended when the inspection finds significant dust or debris loading, visible or confirmed microbial growth, contaminants discharging from registers, or contamination following construction, fire, or water damage. When those conditions are present, the report becomes a bid-ready scope you can use to get quotes, from us or anyone else. When they are absent, the report documents that the system is in acceptable condition and sets the next inspection date.
