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 Spokane Valley, WA
Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning handles air duct and dryer vent work throughout Spokane Valley, WA, and the job here looks different than it does in wetter parts of Washington. The Valley’s winter inversions and summer wildfire seasons load ductwork with a fine gray particulate that most homes west of the Cascades never accumulate, and the older ranch-style housing stock means we’re often working in crawl spaces with original sheet-metal runs from the 1960s and 70s. We quote one flat price per system in writing before any work begins, and every job is backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Call (469) 972-3151 to talk through what you’re seeing.
Why Spokane Valley Homes Are Different
Spokane Valley sits in a geographic basin that holds cold air close to the ground in winter. When a temperature inversion settles in, wood-stove smoke and fine particulates from every chimney in the Valley stay put at ground level, and furnaces running at full output pull that dense air straight into the ductwork. On Spokane Regional Clean Air Agency curtailment days, when wood-burning is restricted because PM2.5 levels have maxed out, your HVAC system is still drawing in the highest outdoor particulate concentrations of the year. Our technicians regularly find a distinctive layered gray-soot deposit inside supply ducts in the older central Valley neighborhoods, a signature built up over years of inversions stacked on top of wildfire smoke events from Idaho, Montana, and British Columbia. That profile is not something we see in the dust-and-pollen loads typical of western Washington homes.
The housing stock compounds it. Most of the core residential areas, from Greenacres to Veradale, were built between the late 1950s and the 1980s as ranch-style tract homes with sheet-metal forced-air ductwork routed through unconditioned crawl spaces. Those crawl spaces invite rodent intrusion and condensation, and after 40 or 50 years the duct joints separate and start pulling in unfiltered air. The later 1990s and 2000s subdivisions added homes with flexible plastic duct runs that trap debris differently and degrade faster on the interior liner. Both configurations respond well to professional cleaning, but they need different techniques and different equipment, and a generic one-size-fits-all approach leaves material behind.
Our Main Spokane Valley Services
Spokane Valley homeowners call us most often about two things: the ductwork that’s been circulating inversion dust and wildfire ash through the house, and the dryer vent that no longer moves air the way it should. Each service has its own detailed Spokane Valley page below.
Air Duct Cleaning in Spokane Valley
Duct cleaning in Spokane Valley means dealing with a specific kind of buildup: fine gray particulate that coats the interior of supply and return ducts after months of furnace use during the long heating season, then gets layered with wildfire smoke residue in summer. Our technicians use Rotobrush rotary brush systems to agitate debris off the duct walls and Nikro negative-pressure units to pull the loosened material out of the house. If you’re noticing dust settling back on surfaces within days of cleaning, or a musty smell when the furnace first kicks on, the full picture is on our Air Duct Cleaning in Spokane Valley page with local pricing.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Spokane Valley
Long, cold winters mean Spokane Valley dryers run constantly, and vent runs that exit through crawl spaces or up through the roof collect lint differently than short sidewall vents on newer homes. A restricted dryer vent forces lint bypass around the lint trap and into the machine cabinet, and in the worst cases it becomes a fire risk. Our technicians clear the full run with professional equipment, not a box-store kit, and we verify airflow at the exterior termination. See typical Spokane Valley pricing and what the job involves on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Spokane Valley page.

What pushes a Spokane Valley job toward the top of these ranges is usually the crawl space: if ductwork is separated, rodent-damaged, or covered in construction debris, the work takes longer and costs more. The price we quote is the price on the invoice. It’s in writing before we touch a single vent, and that’s true on every job, every time, under the Kingswell Guarantee. Call (469) 972-3151 for an exact quote on your system.

What Spokane Valley Customers Say
"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."
- Terrence Boyd"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."
