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, WA
Air duct cleaning in Spokane means contending with a duct system that gets worked harder than almost anywhere else in Washington. Between six months of furnace use, hot dry summers with the AC running, wildfire smoke settling into the valley, and Palouse dust blowing in from the south, the average Spokane home accumulates particulate matter faster than homes in wetter, less fire-adjacent markets. We’re Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning, and we clean ducts with professional-grade negative-air extraction and rotary brush agitation, then back every job with a written 365-Day Done Right Promise. Call (469) 972-3151 for a free estimate.
Why Spokane Homes Are Different
Spokane’s housing stock spans two very different eras, and each one changes how a duct cleaning job goes. On the South Hill and in Browne’s Addition, pre-1950 craftsman bungalows and foursquares were often converted from gravity “octopus” furnaces to forced-air. Those conversions left oversized, irregularly shaped sheet-metal trunk lines that are difficult to access, and in some cases we still encounter asbestos-wrapped duct insulation from the 1940s and 1950s. When that happens, work stops and an abatement referral is required before cleaning can proceed. It’s a code and liability reality that comes up far more often in Spokane’s older neighborhoods than in newer suburban markets.
The Spokane Valley and north-side neighborhoods are different again: 1955 to 1980 ranch-style tract homes whose original flex duct and fiberglass duct board have degraded significantly over the years. That means shedding fibers into the airstream, which is exactly what a thorough cleaning should address. Add in temperature inversions that trap wildfire smoke from Idaho and Montana fires every summer, plus agricultural dust blown in from the wheat country to the south, and Spokane ducts carry a dual particulate load with almost no off-season rest. Furnaces run hard from October through March; the AC picks up right after.
Our Main Spokane Services
Spokane homeowners call us most often about two jobs: the full air duct cleaning for the home’s HVAC system, and dryer vent cleaning for the exhaust line that runs from the dryer to the outside. Here’s what each involves locally.
Air Duct Cleaning in Spokane
We clean the entire duct system: supply and return trunk lines, branch runs, and registers. Our technicians use Nikro negative-pressure units to pull loosened debris out of the ducts while HEPA filtration keeps it from re-entering your living space, and Rotobrush rotary brush agitation dislodges buildup at the duct wall. In Spokane’s older converted homes, that means working around irregular trunk lines and decades of accumulated debris. In newer tract homes, it means removing degraded fiberglass duct board particles from the airstream. Air Duct Cleaning in Spokane
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Spokane
A clogged dryer vent is a fire hazard, and Spokane’s dry, lint-heavy air makes vent lines clog faster than homeowners expect. We clean the full run from the dryer connection to the exterior vent cap, and we check the lint trap bypass and termination point for obstructions. Semi-arid conditions mean lint stays dry and loose inside the vent line, so it tends to accumulate in the elbows and horizontal runs more than in humid climates. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Spokane

What Spokane Customers Say
"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."
- 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."
