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 Krum, TX
Air duct cleaning in Krum runs most homes between $450 and $900 for a complete system, and the reason that range skews higher than you’d see in Denton eight miles south comes down to what’s blowing across the fields around town. Krum sits on the edge of active Denton County cropland, and that means cotton, hay, and wheat chaff end up packed into flex-duct systems faster than most homeowners expect. We’re the Krum air duct cleaning team that puts a written price in your hands before any work starts. Call (469) 972-3151 and you’ll get that number on paper, not a guess at the door.
Why Krum Homes Are Different
Krum’s housing stock was almost entirely built after 2000, during the town’s boom as a Denton County bedroom community. Those homes use flexible ductwork, the plastic-and-foil jackets that get routed through attics. In a North Texas summer, attic temperatures pass 150°F, and that heat does two things: it breaks down the outer jackets and it dries out the mastic seals at every joint. When those seals crack, the duct starts pulling in whatever sits in the attic, usually insulation fibers and a fine layer of field dust that’s settled through the soffit vents.
The older segment of Krum homes, the 1950s through 1970s ranch-style houses, tell a different story. Those have original sheet-metal ducts, and decades of soil movement from the expansive clay under the Blackland Prairie has pushed those runs apart at the seams. We see rust, separated joints, and gaps that act like open doors for unfiltered attic air. Coupled with the prevailing south and southwest winds that sweep across open fields straight into residential streets, Krum duct systems collect a particulate load that tree-shaded subdivisions simply don’t face.
Our Main Krum Services
Most Krum homeowners call us about two things: the ducts that move heated and cooled air, and the dryer vent that should be moving hot, lint-loaded air out of the house. Here’s how each one works in Krum.
Air Duct Cleaning in Krum
In Krum’s flex-duct homes, the job usually means brush agitation at the duct wall to break loose packed agricultural dust, followed by negative-air extraction to pull it out of the living space. In the older ranch-style homes, we pay particular attention to joint separation and rust where sheet-metal runs have shifted. Fall cotton harvest and late-spring wheat cutting load filters with crop chaff fast, so homeowners here often schedule twice in a harvest year. See the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Krum page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Krum
A dryer vent in Krum doesn’t just collect lint; it collects lint mixed with the same fine field dust that finds its way into everything else. That mixture packs harder and restricts airflow sooner. For homes with a first-floor laundry and a short vent run, it’s a straightforward job. Second-floor laundries with long vertical runs through a hot attic take longer, and older ranch homes often have lint traps bypassed entirely. The details, including what we check before and after, live on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in Krum page.

Yes. Our service area covers the unincorporated Denton County pockets around Krum, including the acreage subdivisions east of FM 156 and the rural roads that feed into town. A rural Krum address doesn’t change the price, but we’ll confirm the exact arrival window when you book.
No. Air duct and dryer vent cleaning is routine interior and exterior maintenance, not a structural change, so no Krum HOA requires approval for it. If a technician ever needs rooftop access for a dryer vent, we’ll note that on the booking so our team brings the right ladder and roof-safe footing.

What Krum 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."
