A Specialty Almost No One Else Offers
Vessel ventilation systems are tight, complex, and critical; crew and passenger air quality depends on them, and marine environments load them with salt air, moisture, and confined-space dust. Our American Caddy Vac equipment and NADCA-certified technicians clean marine ventilation systems that shore-based duct cleaners can't reach and won't attempt.
Services for Vessels and Marine Facilities
- Vessel ventilation: marine duct and ventilation system cleaning for ferries, working vessels, and ships
- Air quality: IAQ services and mold remediation for moisture-prone marine interiors
- Regulated materials: Asbestos abatement for older vessels and marine structures, with testing and surveys
- Shore facilities: full services for terminals, maintenance buildings, and waterfront facilities
Legacy Buildings, Modern Standards
Installations carry building stock from every era, and the older structures routinely contain asbestos and lead-based paint. Our certified crews survey, abate, and clear those materials to current standards, with the documentation chain federal facility files require, so renovation and demolition projects proceed cleanly.
Working With Primes and Facility Offices
We work both as a direct contractor and as a specialty subcontractor to primes who need certified abatement capacity on installation projects. Either way, the same standards apply: credentialed crews, schedule discipline, and closeout documentation that satisfies federal requirements the first time.

Yes. It's a standing specialty. Our NADCA-certified technicians and American Caddy Vac equipment service ventilation systems aboard ferries, working vessels, and ships throughout the Puget Sound region.
That's how marine work has to happen. We plan around sailing schedules, layovers, maintenance windows, and dry-dock periods, and we clear the vessel on time so your schedule holds.
Yes. Older vessels and marine structures frequently contain asbestos in insulation and finishes, and our certified crews provide the testing, abatement, and documentation that marine projects require.
