About Duct Doctor USA
Duct Doctor USA is a leader in the cleaning and maintenance industry. For over 30 years, it has changed and improved the equipment and procedures for cleaning air ducts. The company's patented vacuum trucks effectively remove dust and other debris from air ducts to improve the indoor air quality. The heavy-duty equipment includes a vacuum hose and high-velocity sweeping apparatus along with an air compressor capable of supplying air pressure up to 200 psi. There are several types of agitation devices (sweepers), so Duct Doctor USA operators can select the right one for each type of ductwork.
The truck's vacuum is powered by a diesel engine and is capable of producing suction power that can move over five times more air than the average residential air handler unit. With a deployment distance of up to 200 feet, the vacuum hose can easily connect to ductwork in large or small buildings. Duct Doctor USA services residential homes and commercial facilities.
The company sets itself apart from industry competitors through extensive research and innovation. The senior management of the company includes two Board Certified Allergists and numerous Air System Cleaning Specialists certified by the National Air Duct Cleaners Association. These Certified Air System Cleaning Specialists are responsible for training all operators and technicians to follow the rigid standards for source removal set by the NADCA.

History
Duct Doctor USA was founded in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1985 by Dr. Gerald Vanderpool, a well-known Board Certified Allergist. Throughout the three decades of its existence, the company has continued to innovate new ways to improve indoor air quality through effective air duct cleaning. From its initial location in Atlanta, Duct Doctor USA has expanded to include franchises in 11 states and over 150 cities. In 2005, the first international franchise opened. Today, there are overseas franchises in both UAE and Nigeria.
Ideal Candidate
Because of the industry and business model of Duct Doctor USA, potential franchisees should be interested in operating a vacuum truck themselves. Candidates should have adequate physical ability to operate cleaning equipment and be willing to participate in specialized training. Entrepreneurs who prefer to own a franchise without necessarily operating it may not be a good fit for Duct Doctor USA.
