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 Fresno, CA
Most Fresno homes need their air ducts cleaned more often than homeowners realize. The San Joaquin Valley’s agricultural dust, wildfire smoke, and five months of 100°F+ heat push more particulate into ductwork than almost any other climate in the country, and houses built in the 1950s through 1970s often have leaky sheet-metal ducts that pull valley dust in year-round. We’re Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning, and we work differently: a written price before any work begins, uniformed background-checked technicians, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every job. Call (469) 972-3151 for a straight answer about your Fresno home’s ducts.
Why Fresno Homes Are Different
Fresno sits at the bottom of the San Joaquin Valley’s natural bowl, and the geography drives everything we see on the job. Temperature inversions trap agricultural dust, wildfire smoke from Sierra Nevada fires, and diesel emissions over the city for days at a time. The American Lung Association has placed Fresno among the worst particle-pollution cities in the nation for years running, and that pollution doesn’t stay outside. It gets pulled into return registers, circulated through duct runs, and deposited on duct walls, coil surfaces, and blower motors.
The housing stock matters too. Central and southeast Fresno neighborhoods like Sunnyside and McLane are heavily built on 1950s to 1970s tract homes with original sheet-metal ductwork that was never air-sealed. Those leaky joints draw dust from crawlspaces and attics directly into the supply stream. Northwest Fresno saw rapid expansion through the 1990s and 2000s, producing large single-story homes with long flex-duct runs through unconditioned attics that hit 150°F in summer. That heat degrades duct liners and bakes particulate into the walls of the duct. And during the September to October almond harvest, mechanical shakers send reddish-brown clay-based dust plumes rolling toward residential edges – we consistently find a distinctive agricultural dust layer in ducts near the city’s farming fringe that tells us exactly when those systems were last addressed.
Our Main Fresno Services
Fresno homeowners call us about two things, and each has its own page with full details on pricing and process.
Air Duct Cleaning in Fresno
Whole-system air duct cleaning in Fresno means removing the agricultural dust, smoke particulate, and household debris that has built up inside your supply and return ductwork. Our technicians use Rotobrush rotary brush systems to dislodge debris at the duct wall, then Nikro negative-pressure units pull it out while Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration keeps loosened particles from recirculating into your living space. In a Fresno summer, when your AC runs nearly nonstop for months, clean ducts make a measurable difference in what you’re breathing. See Air Duct Cleaning in Fresno for detailed pricing and what to expect.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fresno
Dryer vents in Fresno homes clog with a mix of lint and the same fine valley dust that coats everything else. Long vent runs through hot attics – common in northwest Fresno’s 1990s and 2000s builds – compress that lint into dense blockages that reduce dryer efficiency and create fire risk. We use negative-air extraction to pull the debris out completely, not just loosen it, and we check the full run from dryer to exterior termination. See Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fresno for scope and pricing details.

Most Fresno appointments are scheduled within three to five business days. During almond harvest and the first summer heat waves, our calendar fills faster. Call (469) 972-3151 and a live person will give you the next available window, not a voicemail queue.
For interior duct and dryer vent work, no. The equipment runs from inside the home or garage. Some gated communities in northwest Fresno require notification for commercial vehicles, but duct cleaning itself does not require HOA sign-off.

What Fresno Customers Say
"My wife's allergies were awful every morning. Had the ducts done and it's made a real difference. Tech was on time and wore booties in the house without me asking."
- Rob Pendergast"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."
