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 Pine Castle, FL
Air duct cleaning in Pine Castle typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. Pine Castle’s older housing stock and Central Florida humidity create conditions we don’t see in newer Orlando suburbs: original galvanized ductwork, low-clearance attics, and condensation-driven buildup that standard vacuuming won’t touch. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we send background-checked, uniformed crews to Pine Castle with Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Pine Castle Homes Are Different
Pine Castle sits unincorporated in Orange County, just south of Orlando International Airport, and its housing tells the story of post-WWII Florida growth. Most homes here are 1950s-70s ranches and small bungalows, concrete block construction with original galvanized or early flex duct runs installed when central air was retrofitted decades after the walls went up. That means our technicians are often crawling through tight, low-clearance attics to reach ductwork that was never designed for modern HVAC loads.
The local environment adds its own challenges. Central Florida’s year-round humidity keeps AC systems running nearly 12 months, so condensation inside poorly-sealed ducts is constant. Pine Castle’s sandy soil and summer thunderstorms blow fine grit and debris into return-side ductwork more aggressively than in drier inland climates. And because many lots still use reclaimed water for irrigation, the ambient moisture load stays higher than in neighborhoods with standard municipal water. We regularly find duct runs terminating in unsealed plenum boxes in Pine Castle attics, where humidity plus summer heat bakes dust into a condensation-caked layer that requires agitation plus antimicrobial treatment to actually remove.
Our Main Pine Castle Services
Most Pine Castle homeowners call us for one of three jobs. Each has its own page with full details, local pricing, and what to expect on your property.
Air Duct Cleaning in Pine Castle
We clean supply and return ductwork using a rotary brush system that agitates debris off duct walls, coupled with negative-air suction that pulls it out of your home rather than redistributing it. In Pine Castle, this often means addressing the condensation-dust buildup in unsealed attic plenums that standard vacuuming leaves behind. We inspect with a camera before and after so you see what came out. Air Duct Cleaning in Pine Castle
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Pine Castle
Dryer vent blockages are a genuine fire hazard, especially in older Pine Castle homes where vents may run through low attics with multiple bends. We use rotary brushes and high-velocity air tools to clear lint buildup from the dryer connection through the exterior termination, then verify airflow with a meter. If your dryer takes two cycles to dry a load, the vent is likely restricted. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Pine Castle
Duct Sealing in Pine Castle
Leaky ducts waste 20-30% of conditioned air in many Pine Castle homes, and in this climate that means your system works harder all year. We apply duct sealing mastic and mechanical fasteners at joints, plenums, and penetration points, then pressure-test to verify the seal. For homes with the original galvanized runs common here, sealing is often the most cost-effective efficiency upgrade available. Duct Sealing in Pine Castle
