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 Antelope, CA
Air duct cleaning in Antelope means dealing with a very specific generation of homes. Most houses here were built between 1987 and 1999, which puts their original duct systems at 25 to 35 years old right now. That’s the age when fiberglass duct board delaminates and flexible duct connections in 140°F attics start pulling apart. We work on those systems every week, and we price every job in writing before work starts. Call (469) 972-3151 for a direct quote on your Antelope home.
Why Antelope Homes Are Different
Antelope’s housing stock is almost entirely slab-on-grade tract construction from the late 1980s through the late 1990s. The ductwork runs through unconditioned attics that routinely exceed 140°F in summer. That heat does two things over time: it bakes dust into the duct lining, and it causes flexible duct connections to loosen and sag. Kinks and low spots trap debris mid-run, not just at the registers. In newer subdivisions to the north and south, technicians find dirty registers and plenums. In Antelope, we commonly find localized blockages halfway down the run, where 30 summers of thermal cycling have let the duct collapse or pull apart.
Summer here is a stress test. When temperatures stay above 100°F, AC systems run nearly continuously, pulling dust through filters faster and loading up the ductwork. Then winter arrives with dense Tule fog, and damp air seeping into leaky attic ducts can introduce enough moisture to support mold growth in fiberglass-lined systems. Wildfire smoke seasons add another layer: fine particulates from Sierra Nevada foothills fires push deep into aging ducts and sit there between cleanings. Homes in Antelope need attention that newer master-planned communities simply don’t.
Our Main Antelope Services
Antelope homeowners call us most about two things: the ducts that move heated and cooled air through the house, and the dryer vent that removes hot, lint-laden air. Both jobs have their own page with full pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Antelope
Cleaning an Antelope duct system starts with an inspection of the attic runs, because that’s where the problems concentrate in this housing stock. We use negative-air extraction to pull loosened debris out of the system while brush agitation works the duct walls, so what we remove doesn’t end up in the living space. For homes built between 1987 and 1999, we check specifically for sagging flexible duct and delaminating duct board, the two failure points we see most in Antelope. Read the full breakdown at Air Duct Cleaning in Antelope.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Antelope
Dryer vents in Antelope run from the laundry room through the attic or out an exterior wall, and lint accumulates fastest at the turns and where the duct sags. A clogged vent makes the dryer run hotter and longer, which costs you money and creates a fire hazard. We clean the full run from the dryer to the exterior termination, including the lint trap bypass area most people never see. If your dryer has been taking longer than it should, see Dryer Vent Cleaning in Antelope for what’s involved.

What Antelope 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."
