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.

Hastings isn’t like the subdivisions up in Orange Park or Fleming Island. Out here you’ve got older farmhouses with retrofitted ductwork, mobile homes on rural lots with flexible ducts that sag and tear, and fine agricultural dust from spring plowing and fall harvesting that loads up filters faster than anywhere else in St. Johns County. We’ve cleaned ducts in Hastings homes where the return grille was packed with cabbage-field soot and in ranchettes where condensation from our humid northeast Florida summers had turned the ductboard fuzzy with mildew. That local pattern matters, because it changes what equipment we bring and what we check before we leave.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Hastings’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been at this since 2004 as part of the Garrison Partners family, and our Hastings customers know we don’t play the bait-and-switch game that stains this trade. The price we write down before work starts is the price you pay. No per-vent add-ons, no “surprise, you need this extra service” once the van is in your driveway.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and held to The Garrison Code: arrive inside the window, price in writing, complete the job by the book, leave the site clean. You get a name and photo before anyone knocks. In a rural community like Hastings where neighbors talk and reputation travels on the dirt roads, that accountability matters.
Every repair and cleaning we perform carries our 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. Competitors in this market rarely put that in writing. We do, on every single job.
And when you call (361) 326-5060, a live person answers. Not a callback queue, not “leave a message and we’ll get back to you Monday.” That matters in Hastings, where many residents work agricultural schedules and need to book around early mornings or late harvest evenings.
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Hastings
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Hastings means dealing with systems that weren’t always designed for central air. Many farmhouses here started with window units or package ACs, and the ductwork was retrofitted later, often with flexible duct that crushes, sags, or pulls loose at the collar. Our crews arrive with Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines, the same tools commercial outfits use, because Hastings ductwork often needs more than a light vacuum. A typical residential HVAC duct cleaning in Hastings runs $400 – $750 depending on system size and accessibility.
Mobile Home and Flexible Duct Specialists
Manufactured homes make up a significant share of Hastings housing, and their original flexible ductwork is prone to tears at the seams and collapses where supports have failed. We inspect every run with a video camera before cleaning, so you see the condition we see, and we flag damage that needs repair before we pressurize the system.
Antimicrobial Treatment for Humid-Climate Buildup
Hastings sits in hot, humid northeast Florida with a long cooling season and high year-round humidity. Duct systems here are prone to condensation, mold and mildew growth, and biological buildup. When we find active microbial growth during cleaning, we apply an antimicrobial treatment registered for HVAC use and explain exactly what it does and what it doesn’t.
Vent Cleaning in Hastings
Vent Cleaning in Hastings addresses the supply and return grilles where agricultural dust, pet dander, and cooking residue collect on the visible surfaces homeowners notice first. A typical vent cleaning service in Hastings, whether as part of a full system cleaning or focused on problem registers, runs $150 – $350 for standard residential jobs. We remove each grille, clean it with compressed air and agitation tools, and treat the boot and first few feet of duct behind it where debris piles up thickest.
Return Vent Deep Cleaning
Return vents in Hastings homes pull in more than room air. During spring plowing and fall harvest, fine dust from potato and cabbage fields gets drawn through windows and doors, loading return grilles with a distinctive pale, powdery residue we don’t see in suburban Jacksonville. We pull those grilles and clean the full boot depth, not just the visible face.
Supply Register Restoration
Supply registers in older Hastings homes often have years of accumulated cooking grease and dust baked into the fins by years of Florida heat. We remove, soak where appropriate, and restore airflow pattern without bending the louvers or damaging aged plastic components common in retrofitted systems.
Trusted Brands We Service in Hastings
Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for mechanical agitation, Nikro negative-air machines for controlled debris extraction, and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman. We don’t show up with a shop vacuum and hope for the best. For Hastings homeowners with existing filtration hardware, we stock common Honeywell and Aprilaire media and can often replace a clogged filter during the same visit, saving you a trip to the hardware store in Palatka or St. Augustine. If your system needs a filtration upgrade after cleaning, we’ll explain the MERV rating that matches your equipment without choking airflow, and we’ll write the price before we install anything.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Hastings Homes
- Collapsed flexible duct in manufactured homes. The original flexible duct in Hastings mobile homes, often decades old, sags between supports and eventually collapses completely, blocking airflow and creating a debris trap our rotary brush systems locate and flag for repair.
- Agricultural dust loading from surrounding farmland. Seasonal plowing, harvesting, and occasional field burning around Hastings kick up fine dust and soot that overwhelms standard filters and packs return ducts tight every spring and fall, requiring more frequent cleaning than suburban systems.
- Condensation and microbial growth in humid ductwork. Hastings’s hot, humid climate and long cooling season create constant condensation inside ductwork, especially in unconditioned attics and crawl spaces, leading to mold and mildew that standard cleaning alone won’t resolve without antimicrobial treatment.
- Poorly sealed retrofitted duct systems in older farmhouses. Many Hastings farmhouses were retrofitted with central air decades after construction, using ductboard or flex duct that was never properly sealed at joints, leaking conditioned air into attics and pulling attic dust into the system.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Hastings, FL
Whole-home air duct cleaning in Hastings typically runs $350 – $650 for a standard single-family system, with most residential jobs falling in the $450 – $550 range. Mobile home systems, which are smaller but often more damaged, typically run $300 – $500. Commercial duct cleaning for Hastings businesses, agricultural processing offices, or larger rural properties starts around $800 and scales with system complexity. Video inspection, if needed to assess damage before cleaning, runs $125 – $200 and is credited toward the cleaning if you proceed.
What moves the price: system size, number of air handlers, accessibility (crawl space work costs more than basement or attic access), and whether we find damage requiring repair before safe cleaning. We also offer Duct Sealing in Hastings as an add-on or standalone service, typically $400 – $900 depending on linear footage of accessible ductwork.
We do not quote per-vent prices. That structure invites bait-and-switch, and we don’t operate that way. One flat price per system, agreed in writing before work starts, period. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate. We’ll ask about your home type, system age, and any symptoms you’ve noticed, then give you a range you can count on.
