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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Garnet
Air duct cleaning in Garnet, CA typically runs $280 – $520 for a full residential system and is scheduled within a few business days, with our dispatch team coordinating from the Inland Empire office to reach homes across the Coachella Valley. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve spent two decades cleaning duct systems in desert communities where the air outside is 110°F and the air inside has nowhere else to go. If your filters clog faster than your calendar reminders, or you’re noticing that thin layer of grit on furniture no matter how often you dust, your ductwork is likely moving more sand than air. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate, or read on to see exactly how we price and perform this work in Garnet.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Garnet’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Garnet homeowners know the difference between a crew that understands desert HVAC and one that’s figuring it out as they go. We’ve cleaned ducts in the tract homes off Garnet’s main corridors and in the older pockets near the city’s mid-century core, where flexible ductwork has been collecting Coachella Valley dust since the 1970s. Our technicians arrive uniformed, background-checked, and equipped with Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines, the same tools commercial operators use in hospitals and schools. Every job starts with a written price that doesn’t change once we’re inside, and every repair or cleaning is backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise, in writing. If something fails within a year, we come back and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. Phones are answered by a live person 24 hours a day, seven days a week, no voicemail loops.
Air Duct Repair in Garnet
Air Duct Repair in Garnet addresses the cracked, collapsed, or disconnected flexible ductwork common in the city’s mid-century and late-20th-century housing stock, where decades of thermal expansion, rodent intrusion, and sand abrasion have taken their toll. When your AC runs eight months straight, every leak in the duct system is money blowing into your attic or crawl space, and in Garnet’s climate, that adds up fast. Most repairs run $180 – $450 depending on accessibility and the extent of damage, with full section replacements reaching $600 – $900 for larger trunk lines.
Sealing Leaks and Reconnecting Runs
We find the gaps using video inspection, then seal with mastic or replace damaged sections with new flexible duct rated for desert temperature swings. A typical Garnet home loses 20 – 30% of conditioned air through leaks we can locate and fix in a single visit.
Repairing Damaged Insulation
Desert heat cooks duct insulation from the outside while cooled air strains it from within. When insulation deteriorates, condensation forms, then mold. We strip and rewrap with proper R-value materials so your system isn’t working against itself.
Ductwork Cleaning in Garnet
Ductwork Cleaning in Garnet removes the accumulated desert dust, sand, and debris that gets pulled into return vents and deposited throughout supply lines during the long cooling season. In a city where windows stay sealed from April through October and the Santa Ana winds drive fine grit through every crack, your ducts become the main circulation path for particles that standard filters can’t catch. A full residential cleaning runs $280 – $520 for most Garnet homes, with commercial systems starting around $800 depending on square footage and access.
Rotary Brush and Negative-Air Methods
Our Rotobrush system scrubs duct walls while the Nikro negative-air machine pulls dislodged debris out of your home entirely, not just deeper into the system. We explain which method suits your duct type before we start, and we show you the before-and-after photos so you know the work happened.
Supply and Return Line Cleaning
Return lines near Garnet’s ground-level vents collect the heaviest loads, especially after wind events. Supply lines distribute whatever the returns picked up. We clean both, plus registers and boots, so you’re not recontaminating the system the moment we leave.
Trusted Brands We Service in Garnet
We maintain and install filtration and cleaning equipment from Aprilaire, Abatement Technologies, and Guardsman, brands that hold up under the constant load Garnet’s climate demands. Our trucks stock common parts and filters so we’re not ordering and returning, and our technicians can swap out a failed component during the same visit rather than leaving you with another appointment to manage. If your system uses Honeywell media filters or an Aprilaire whole-house purifier, we service those in place rather than pushing unnecessary replacements. The Garrison Standard means we arrive with what we need, price it before we touch it, and leave the site clean.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Garnet Homes
- Filters that look sandblasted after Santa Ana wind events. When those winds blow through the San Gorgonio Pass, they carry desert soil that gets pulled straight into return vents. We’ve pulled filters from Garnet homes that were white on Monday and tan by Wednesday, and the grit that made it past the filter is now lining the ducts.
- Original flexible ductwork from the 1960s – 1980s with no updates. Garnet’s housing stock is full of these systems. The duct material gets brittle, the inner liner tears, and every hole becomes a dust reservoir that the blower redistributes through the house.
- AC systems that run continuously but never feel cool enough. In Garnet’s 100°F-plus summers, restricted airflow from dirty ducts forces the compressor to work harder and longer. The electric bill climbs while comfort drops, and the equipment wears out years early.
- Allergy symptoms that persist despite indoor isolation. When outdoor air isn’t an option for eight months, any contaminant in the duct system recirculates endlessly. We’ve cleaned ducts in Garnet homes where the family had essentially been breathing the same particulate load since spring.

Most full residential duct cleanings in Garnet fall between $280 and $520. A basic single-system home with accessible vents and standard flexible ductwork sits at the lower end.
