Capitol Duct Cleaning is seeking a dependable, hands-on team member for a combined duct-cleaning and insulation role. You’ll assist lead technicians with air-duct cleaning, insulation installation and removal, job-site preparation, and cleanup. Assignments will vary based on the daily schedule.


This is an on-site field position. Prior duct-cleaning, insulation, or construction experience is helpful but not required.


What you’ll do


Duct cleaning

• Help set up, operate, and pack away duct-cleaning equipment under a lead technician’s direction.
  
  
• Assist with cleaning supply and return ductwork, registers, and grilles.
  
  
• Handle hoses, tools, and equipment so the crew can complete jobs efficiently.
  
  
• Help protect floors, furnishings, and surrounding work areas.
  
  

Insulation

• Help remove old insulation and prepare attics and crawl spaces for installation.
  
  
• Install insulation, vapor barriers, and air-sealing materials under the lead installer’s direction.
  
  
• Load, unload, and organize materials, tools, and equipment.
  
  

Every job

• Follow safety procedures and requirements for protective equipment.
  
  
• Keep work areas organized and leave customers’ homes clean.
  
  
• Report job-site concerns, damaged materials, and equipment problems promptly.
  
  
• Help document completed work with photos and job notes.
  
  
• Communicate respectfully with customers and coworkers.
  
  

What we’re looking for

• Reliable attendance, punctuality, and a willingness to learn both services.
  
  
• Ability to follow instructions and work effectively alongside a lead technician.
  
  
• Comfort working in attics, crawl spaces, confined areas, and varying temperatures.
  
  
• Ability to perform essential physical tasks—including lifting and carrying materials, moving equipment, climbing ladders, kneeling, and crawling—with or without reasonable accommodation.
  
  
• Careful handling of tools and respect for customers’ property.
  
  
• Reliable transportation to the designated reporting location.
  
  
• A valid driver’s license if assigned to drive a company vehicle.
  
  

Pay and work expectations

• Starting base pay of $18 per hour.
  
  
• This position supports both duct cleaning and insulation, depending on business needs.
  
  
• Work involves physical activity and travel between customer job sites.
  
  
• Daily assignments and start times depend on the job schedule.
  
  
• Progression to greater responsibility will depend on demonstrated skills, safe work practices, quality, and reliability.
