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 Clermont, FL
Air duct cleaning in Clermont, FL usually runs between $375 and $850 for a whole-home system, depending on square footage, the number of returns, and how long it’s been since the ducts were last touched. The big variable here is housing age: Clermont’s boom-era tract homes are now 15 to 20 years old, and a lot of them still have their original builder-grade flex duct. That means crews in Clermont are often doing first-time cleanings on systems that have never been opened since the day the keys were handed over. If that sounds like your house, call (469) 972-3151 and we’ll give you a written price before any work begins.
Why Clermont Homes Are Different
Clermont’s residential growth between 2000 and 2020 left the city with something you don’t see in most older Orlando suburbs: a giant cluster of homes all aging at the same rate, in the same way, at roughly the same time. The dominant stock is 2000s and 2010s two-story DR Horton, Lennar, and KB Home construction in master-planned communities south of SR-50. These are 2,200 to 3,500 square foot homes with multi-zone HVAC systems and long flex-duct runs routed through unconditioned attic space. Builder-grade duct connections in these houses were frequently undersupported and poorly sealed at the plenum, which means the ductwork has been quietly pulling in attic air, dust, and insulation particles for years.
Then there’s the terrain. Clermont sits on the Lake Wales Ridge, and its hills do something specific to ductwork: rooflines that trap radiant heat. Attic temperatures in Clermont regularly push past 150°F in summer, and that heat bakes flex duct liner until it becomes brittle and starts to shed. Combined with the moisture influence of lakes like Minneola and Louisa, interior duct surfaces stay damp long enough between AC cycles to support mold growth inside supply runs. We see the results on every inspection: cracked liner, disconnected collars, and gray-black staining inside supply plenums that were spotless when the house was built.
One more thing that’s uniquely Clermont. Homes within a mile or two of the Wellness Way and SR-429 corridors are still living next to active land clearing and home-building. Return vents in those neighborhoods continuously pull in fine construction particulate: concrete dust, drywall debris, cleared-land soil. Technicians working those areas routinely pull visibly orange-tinted dust loads that are distinct from ordinary household debris. It’s not something you’d notice from inside the house, but it’s very clear once a camera goes into the return.
Our Main Clermont Services
Clermont homeowners call us most often about two things: air duct cleaning for the whole HVAC system, and dryer vent cleaning for the exhaust run. Each has its own dedicated Clermont page below.
Air Duct Cleaning in Clermont
Whole-home Air Duct Cleaning in Clermont covers every supply and return run, the main trunk lines, the plenums, and the blower compartment. On Clermont’s two-story tract homes, that usually means 10 to 16 supply runs plus two or three returns, much of it flex duct in a hot attic. We use Rotobrush rotary brush agitation to dislodge debris at the duct wall, then Nikro negative-pressure extraction to pull it out of the system while Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration keeps loosened particles from re-entering the living space. Every job includes a walkthrough of before-and-after photos so you can see exactly what came out.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Clermont
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Clermont clears the full exhaust run from the lint trap bypass to the exterior termination point. In Clermont’s larger two-story homes, dryer vents often run 15 to 25 feet through walls and crawl spaces, and long runs with multiple elbows collect lint far faster than short, straight ones. Clermont’s humidity compounds the problem: moist lint cakes against the duct wall instead of drying out and staying loose. If your dryer takes two cycles to finish a load, the vent is the first thing we check.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Clermont
We schedule Clermont jobs on a first-call, first-served basis, and most homeowners get a visit within a few days of calling. When you book, you get a defined arrival window on the phone, not a vague “sometime between 8 and 6.” Call (469) 972-3151 and we’ll find a time that works.
No. Interior air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning are maintenance work done inside your own home, and no HOA in Clermont requires approval for it. The only exception would be if a vent termination point is on shared exterior space, and even then, that’s between you and your association, not a permit issue.
Homes near ongoing land clearing pull construction dust into their ducts much faster than established neighborhoods. If you’re in that area, we typically recommend inspecting your returns more often and checking the filter monthly. Call (469) 972-3151 for a free estimate, and we’ll tell you honestly whether your ducts need work or just a filter change.

What Clermont 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."
