Our Story

Built by duct cleaners. For duct cleaners.

We've been in the industry since 1976 — and we're still the only duct cleaning truck manufacturer that actually runs a duct cleaning company.

Where It Started

CaddyVac didn’t begin in a factory. It began in the field.

Before Mac started building air duct cleaning trucks, he was using them every day. Through B&F Power Vac, an air duct cleaning company operating since 1971, Mac learned firsthand what contractors truly need from their equipment: power, reliability, smart storage, easy operation, and a truck that can stand up to real daily use.

Today, new co-owners Justin and Steve carry that legacy forward with fresh energy and the same practical, field-tested approach.

When you buy from American CaddyVac, you’re buying decades of real-world experience built into every truck.

“

When you buy from us, you're not buying from a manufacturer who learned about duct cleaning from a spec sheet. You're buying from people who know what it feels like when equipment lets you down mid-job.

— American CaddyVac

Meet the team

Real duct-cleaning experience, practical build knowledge, and the kind of phone support that comes from knowing the work firsthand.

Justin Mattoon

Co-Owner

Justin Mattoon didn’t just step into the air duct cleaning industry — he grew up in it. He was only 12 years old when he started helping his dad, Mac Mattoon, on weekends at B & F Power Vac in Lewiston, Idaho.

While Mac was running his air duct cleaning business and maintaining the Power Vac trucks, Justin was in the shop lending a hand, learning the equipment, and gaining an early understanding of what it takes to keep a duct cleaning operation running.

After high school, Justin spent two years working for a welded aluminum jet boat manufacturer, where he quickly moved from detailing into the finishing side of the business, installing everything from carpet to electrical components. That experience added to his hands-on mechanical background and sharpened his ability to understand how equipment is built, finished, and made practical for real-world use.

In 1997, Justin returned to B & F Power Vac to help with an industrial cleaning job — and he never really left. Since then, he has spent nearly three decades working in the air duct cleaning and equipment side of the business, splitting his time between B & F Power Vac and American CaddyVac.

In April 2025, Justin became co-owner of American CaddyVac, helping carry forward the company’s long-standing reputation for building reliable, field-tested air duct cleaning trucks. His experience includes scheduling crews, managing safety, bidding jobs, maintaining trucks, coordinating special projects, answering technical questions, recommending tools, and helping customers understand what equipment best fits their needs.

Because Justin has worked both sides of the business — cleaning ducts in the field and helping build the trucks that do the work — he brings a practical perspective to every CaddyVac conversation. He understands what contractors need because he has spent years using, maintaining, testing, and improving the equipment himself.

For Justin, the best part of the job has always been helping people find solutions. Whether it’s building the right CaddyVac truck for a new customer or solving a unique cleaning challenge in the field, he takes pride in doing the job right.

Steve Cox

Co-Owner

Many American CaddyVac customers already know Steve Cox — even if they only know him as “Steve” from the other end of the phone. For years, Steve has helped customers with new unit sales, parts orders, supplies, technical questions, and shipping.

Today, he continues that same customer-first role as co-owner of American CaddyVac, helping carry the company forward alongside Justin Mattoon after taking over the business in April 2025.

Steve has spent more than 33 years working with American CaddyVac and B & F Power Vac, the air duct cleaning company founded by Mac and Donna Mattoon. His experience didn’t begin behind a desk. It started in the field.

After serving in the U.S. Navy as an Operations Specialist aboard the USS Midway during Operation Desert Storm, Steve returned home to Idaho and accepted what was supposed to be a two-week job as a helper on a B & F Power Vac truck. That short-term job turned into a career.

Steve started out working on duct cleaning trucks, then moved up to running one himself. Over time, he became office manager for both B & F Power Vac and American CaddyVac, handling scheduling, bids, quotes, customer orders, payroll, timecards, parts, supplies, and sales calls.

That combination of field experience and front-office knowledge is what makes Steve such a valuable resource for customers. He understands how the trucks are used, what contractors need, and how to help customers find the right equipment, tools, and parts to keep their business moving.

For Steve, American CaddyVac has always been about more than building trucks. It has been about treating people right. Taking care of employees, helping customers, and doing business with honesty — is something Steve is proud to continue as co-owner.

Outside of work, Steve is a family man and avid outdoorsman. He enjoys fishing, bow hunting, 3D archery, woodworking, CNC projects, and smoking everything from snack sticks and cheese to brisket and prime rib.

After more than three decades with American CaddyVac and B & F Power Vac, Steve brings deep industry experience, practical knowledge, and a steady commitment to service. Whether he’s helping a customer choose the right truck, tracking down the right part, or making sure an order gets out the door, Steve’s goal is simple: help people get what they need and treat them the way he’d want to be treated.
