Why Tampa ducts load up faster than the national rule
The cause is almost always latent load. Air here carries moisture year round. Duct runs sit in vented attics that stay humid. Any gap in a flex connection pulls that attic air in. Dust and roof grit ride along. So does blown insulation fiber. Add a bypassed 1-inch filter and the blower wheel cakes. That is why the interval here is tighter: 3 to 5 years for most homes. It's sooner with pets or smokers. Remodel work also shortens it.
What we find depends on the vintage. Older Tampa houses hide galvanized sheet metal trunks in crawl spaces or attics. Fiberglass duct board plenums and transitions came later. Flex branch runs have dominated since about 1980. Duct board interiors hold microbial growth because the surface is porous. Sheet metal does not, but it rusts at supply plenums and uninsulated boot collars when summer condensation starts.
Cleaning does not fix mechanical problems. Sagging flex and kinked bends restrict air to far bedrooms. So do boots disconnected from ceiling drywall. Those get noted and reconnected, not just vacuumed.
Lizards and roaches enter through attic duct penetrations. Rodents do too. We seal the penetration too. Otherwise the same debris returns within a season.
Post-renovation drywall and sawdust loading is its own job. Different debris, different approach.
