Hands-On Duct Cleaning Since Around 2009
Andy first cleaned ducts around 2009, so the current Better Air Spokane process is built on real time spent around homes, equipment, vents, returns, and furnace areas.

Meet Andy
A Careful Owner-Operator Behind the Work
Andy is the owner/operator behind Better Air Spokane. This page is not here to make the service about him; it is here to help you know who is coming into your home and how the work is approached.
Better Air Spokane should feel straightforward from the first question: clear pricing, a clear process, careful work, and honest answers if duct cleaning is not the right next step.
Experience
Built From Real Duct Cleaning Experience
The current Better Air Spokane process comes from hands-on duct cleaning, later HVAC leadership, operations work, and a stronger focus on explaining the work in a way homeowners can actually use.
Better Air Spokane Started in 2016
Better Air Spokane began in 2016 as a local duct-cleaning business focused on clear service and straightforward homeowner communication.
More HVAC and Operations Experience
After Better Air Spokane paused during the COVID era, Andy spent time as a general manager at an HVAC company in Seattle and later as an operations manager at a software development company.
A Rebuilt Process for Homeowners
Those roles helped bring stronger HVAC knowledge, filtration thinking, clearer service systems, and better follow-through for homeowners back into Better Air Spokane.
What It Means for You
A Better Process for Homeowners

Read FAQsFiltration
Filtration Knowledge, Not Pressure
Duct cleaning and filtration belong together. If dust keeps returning because the filter setup is loose, restrictive, or bypassing air, cleaning alone may not be the whole answer.
Andy's HVAC and filtration experience helps Better Air Spokane talk through those situations without turning every question into a sales pitch.
- A good filter setup can reduce how much dust reaches the duct system.
- A poor filter fit can let air bypass the filter, which means dust can keep returning.
- Some homes benefit more from filter setup improvements than from frequent duct cleaning.
- Andy has used a laser particle counter for filter testing, but Better Air Spokane does not turn that into big claims about the whole home.
