Roger Herde
Roger M. Herdé BSME, MSIE, MBA 
CEO & Founder

Roger is a University of Miami Alumni with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, a Master of Science in Industrial Engineering, and a Master of Business Administration. Roger was employed at Florida Power and Light (FPL) in 1984 as a Co-Op in their Thermal Hydraulics Department, and upon graduation in 1986, he began his professional career in FPL’s Energy Conservation Group and was later promoted to Supervisor in FPL’s Broward County Customer Service and Sales Group.

In 1991, Roger worked with a Quality Improvement Team to standardized time measures for FPL’s Air Duct Leak Repair Program, which was developed with the Florida Solar Energy Center. It was determined that by repairing air duct leaks consumers could save up to 27% on their energy bills.

While repairing duct leaks, Roger recognized a common condition on multiple air-conditioners and air duct systems: all were filled with dirt and suspect mold. He saw the need for a company that would be a specialist in improving indoor air quality through source removal and increasing energy efficiency of the consumers’ air-conditioning system.

Roger became a State of Florida Licensed Air-Conditioning Contractor #CAC056953 and established DuctMasters to be the solution provider thereby turning his passion for detailing cars into designing, selling, building, installing, detailing and maintaining air conditioners and air duct systems.

Our motto is “We provide Clean Air for those who care.” We help our customers reduce their carbon footprint while enjoying a clean, dry, comfortable indoor environment. Our proprietary HVAC cleaning, decontamination, and restoration processes have been later validated by the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) standard.
