Air Duct Cleaning in Brandon, FL
Brandon is not a city. It is a large unincorporated community in Hillsborough County, east of Tampa along I-4 and the Crosstown, and that small fact decides who you call about permits.
The housing, and what it means for the ducts
Much of Brandon was built in waves from the 1970s through the 1990s, single story block homes on slabs with the air handler in the garage or a hall closet and the ducts in the attic. A house from 1985 that has had its AC replaced twice may still have its original duct board plenum and some of its original flex, and duct material that age is often brittle, crushed or disconnected at the boots. That is worth knowing before paying for a cleaning, because cleaning a duct that is falling apart is money spent on the wrong problem.
Unincorporated Brandon means Hillsborough permits
Because Brandon is unincorporated, building permits for work such as an AC change-out, duct replacement or a new roof termination for a dryer vent come from Hillsborough County, not the City of Tampa. Cleaning does not need a permit. Replacement work usually does, and it should be pulled by the licensed contractor doing it. If a company suggests skipping the permit on a duct replacement, that tells you something about the company.
Tampa Electric customers with older homes
Most of Brandon is in Tampa Electric's service area. Its duct repair program is open to existing residential customers whose homes received a certificate of occupancy before March 15, 2012, which covers most Brandon houses. It starts with an inspection by a Tampa Electric energy analyst and is about sealing leaks, not cleaning. If the ducts are both leaky and dirty, the order that makes sense is to clean first and seal afterwards. Check current terms with Tampa Electric directly.

Brandon questions
Do you cover all of Brandon?
Yes, including Bloomingdale, Valrico and the areas around Brandon Boulevard and Lumsden Road. Give the ZIP code when you call if you are unsure.
My house is from the 1980s. Should I replace the ducts instead of cleaning them?
Possibly. If the flex is brittle, the insulation is falling off, or several runs are disconnected, replacement is the better spend. Ask for photos from the attic before deciding.
Who do I call about a permit in Brandon?
Hillsborough County, since Brandon is unincorporated. The licensed contractor doing permitted work normally handles the application.
