Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in Palm Beach, FL
Air duct cleaning in Palm Beach costs between $390 and $1,150 for most homes, depending on square footage, system count, and how much salt-air moisture has worked its way into the ductwork. Palm Beach is a barrier island with the Atlantic on one side and Lake Worth Lagoon on the other, so the air moving through your HVAC system carries humidity and salt you won’t find inland. That changes how quickly ducts foul and what it takes to clean them properly. Call (469) 972-3151 for a written, fixed price before any work begins.
Why Palm Beach Homes Are Different
Most Palm Beach homes sit on a narrow strip of land between two bodies of water. That means supply ducts get hit with salt-laden humid air from both sides, year-round, and condensation forms inside them whenever cold conditioned air meets the warm, damp air pushing in from outside. We see microbial growth in duct systems here that inland towns never experience, and it doesn’t take a neglected system to develop it. A well-maintained HVAC system in Palm Beach will still accumulate more biofilm and salt residue in three years than a similar one in West Palm Beach accumulates in five.
The housing stock makes the work harder, too. A large share of Palm Beach estates date to Addison Mizner’s 1920s and 1930s Mediterranean Revival boom. Those homes were built with thick coral-stone and concrete walls. HVAC came decades later, often retrofitted through constricted, non-standard chases. Duct runs in those houses twist where modern trunks never would, and that’s where debris packs in. We also work in the mid-century and newer luxury builds along South Ocean Boulevard, El Bravo Way, and the streets off North County Road. Those are typically multi-zone systems with hundreds of linear feet of duct, and every zone concentrates contaminant buildup differently.
There’s one more factor unique to Palm Beach: the seasonal calendar. Many estates here sit closed or minimally conditioned from June through October. When owners fly in each November, they’re often walking back into a system that’s been stewing in stagnant humid air for five months. We’ll get to what that means for scheduling below.
Our Main Palm Beach Services
Palm Beach homeowners call us for two things, and each has its own dedicated page with pricing, process, and what to expect.
Air Duct Cleaning in Palm Beach
We clean the full duct system: supply runs, return drops, the plenum, and the registers. In Palm Beach we’re almost always addressing two things at once – debris accumulation and moisture-driven microbial growth. The salt air here means we see light surface corrosion inside sheet-metal duct that inland systems never develop. Our technicians use Rotobrush rotary brush systems to dislodge what’s packed against the duct wall, then Nikro negative-pressure units to pull that material out without it drifting into your living space.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Palm Beach
Dryer vents in Palm Beach clog the way they do everywhere else – lint, pet hair, and fabric softener residue – but the humidity makes the problem stickier. Lint that would stay dry and loose in a Denver vent turns dense and compacted here, sometimes binding to the vent wall within a season. We clean the entire run from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, and we check the termination hood carefully on island homes where salt air corrodes louvers and hinges fast.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Palm Beach, FL
| Service | Typical range in Palm Beach |
|---|---|
| Air duct cleaning, single HVAC system (up to 12 vents) | $390 - $520 |
| Air duct cleaning, larger home (12-18 vents) | $500 - $700 |

What pushes a Palm Beach job toward the top of those ranges is what we described above: constricted retrofitted routing in older estates, salt-corrosion that’s made the duct lining rough and grippy, and multi-zone systems with more total linear footage than a typical Florida home. Whatever the number, it’s the number you get in writing before a single vent is touched. No revision at the door.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Palm Beach
Most Palm Beach appointments are scheduled within one to three business days. During the pre-season rush from mid-October through mid-November, wait times can stretch to a week, so call before you fly in. We answer the phone with a live person 24/7, so you can book even late in the evening. Call (469) 972-3151 and we’ll give you a written price and a defined arrival window.
In almost every case, no. Duct cleaning is interior maintenance, and no Palm Beach building permit is required. A few gated communities along South Ocean Boulevard do ask that contractors check in at the gate with the homeowner’s name and arrival window, which we handle when you book the job.
Yes, and we recommend it. The single busiest window in Palm Beach is October and early November, just before owners return for the season. Booking in September means you arrive to a system that’s already clean instead of one that sat sealed through the humid months. You also avoid the tightest scheduling stretch of the year. Call (469) 972-3151 for a free estimate and we’ll find a slot that fits your arrival.

What Palm Beach Customers Say
"Bought an older home and the previous owners had pets everywhere. After Kestrel did the ducts the stale smell was just gone. On time, quick, and they showed me the filter they pulled."
- Preston Ngata"Our dryer was taking two cycles to dry a load. They cleaned the vent and pulled out a frightening amount of lint. Dries in one cycle now and honestly I feel better about the fire risk."
- Marcus Lee"Set up an appointment for the whole house plus the dryer line. They called the morning of to confirm, showed up in the window, and showed me pictures of the gunk they pulled out. Worth it."
