What Ductmasters Inc does

DuctMasters Inc (legal entity DuctMasters USA, Inc.) is a family-owned HVAC, indoor air quality, and clean energy services company headquartered in Davie, Florida, founded in 1992 by Roger M. Herdé after his tenure at Florida Power & Light. The company designs, sells, installs, cleans, repairs, and maintains residential and commercial air conditioning and duct systems across South Florida — Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, and Collier counties — with commercial services extending statewide. Its customer base spans South Florida homeowners (10,000+ served) and institutional clients including federal agencies (NOAA, FL DOT), local government, hospitals, schools, universities, airports, hotels, condominium associations, and a niche marine/yacht segment.

The service portfolio is organized around five pillars: (1) AC services covering installation, repair, and maintenance across premium brands (Daikin, Daikin Fit System, Mitsubishi, Amana, American Standard, Lennox); (2) duct services including inspection, cleaning, repair, replacement, and proprietary mold-resistant coatings; (3) indoor air quality solutions built on a proprietary air duct cleaning and decontamination process validated by NADCA, the DuctMasters Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation (UVGI) system with lifetime ballast warranty, HealthWay DFS medical-grade filtration (99.99% capture at 0.007 microns), PCO grids, and whole-house dehumidification; (4) commercial HVAC cleaning, restoration, and mold remediation for schools, hospitals, government buildings, and offices; and (5) residential solar and energy storage delivered through SunVault (SunPower) partnerships.

DuctMasters operates a sales-led, direct field-service model with five physical offices covering the South Florida metro, multi-line inbound phone sales, ServiceTitan online self-scheduling, and a multi-channel acquisition stack combining local SEO, content marketing, social media, home and trade shows, and a customer referral program. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time flat-rate project fees for AC installations, duct cleanings, and replacements, with package pricing ranging from $895 to $2,790 per job; recurring revenue is supplied by the Clean Air Maintenance Program (CAMP) subscription at $278-$495 per year. Multiple PACE and installment financing partners (Optimus, Greensky, Renew Financial, Home Run, PACE AC) are layered in to reduce customer friction on higher-ticket projects.
