WHAT WE FIND IN HAMILTON
Gravity heat, converted twice
Hamilton and Lauraville went up between 1920 and 1945: porch-front semi-detached houses along Harford and Belair, deep narrow lots, and the bungalow blocks around Hamilton Hills.
Nearly every one of them started with a coal furnace and gravity ducting — huge round trunks slung under the basement joists, no blower, and registers sized for air that moved by itself. Those trunks are still there in most houses, now feeding a modern high-efficiency furnace through an adaptor. They are enormous, they are rarely sealed, and a century of settled dust lies along the bottom of every one.
Laundry is in the basement and the dryer goes out through the foundation to a side wall. Twelve to eighteen feet, one or two elbows, and the louvre sits low enough that the planting gets into it. A fair amount of what we pull out of a Hamilton vent is not lint, it is mulch.
The attics matter here too. A lot of these houses had the second floor finished later, and the supply for it was run through the attic in flexible duct. Twenty summers of attic heat later it sags, and the sags hold condensate.

QUESTIONS FROM HAMILTON
Asked on the porch-front blocks
What is the huge round duct in my basement?
A gravity trunk, from when the house had a coal furnace and no blower. It is not a fault. It is oversized for the furnace you have now, which is why it collects, and it is the first thing we clean.
Can you reach the vent if it is behind a hedge?
Yes. We trim back what we have to, tell you first, and leave it tidy. If the louvre sits less than a foot off the ground, we point it out so a qualified professional can raise it.
How do I check availability in Hamilton?
Send your ZIP code with the quote request, or call. Availability depends on the service, the route and the schedule, and we confirm the scope and price before booking.
The second floor was finished later. Does that change the price?
It can. Air duct cleaning starts at $349 for one HVAC system with up to 10 supply vents and 2 return vents, and additional vents are $25 each. Sagging attic runs are a repair for an HVAC professional; we clean what is accessible and document what we see.
