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 Chino Hills, CA
Air duct cleaning in Chino Hills typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve learned that Chino Hills homes present a specific set of challenges you won’t find in coastal markets: dual fireplace and AC use, aging fiberglass ductwork in 140°F attics, and master-planned neighborhoods built across three decades with three different duct standards. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free written estimate before any work starts.
Why Chino Hills Homes Are Different
Chino Hills sits at the edge of the Inland Empire where the climate works your HVAC system harder than almost anywhere in Southern California. Summer stretches from May through October with regular triple-digit days, meaning your AC runs six to seven months straight. Then winter arrives and residents in neighborhoods like Los Serranos, Vellano, and Pinehurst fire up wood-burning fireplaces for the few cold weeks we get. That dual-use cycle pulls combustion soot and fine PM2.5 directly into supply ducts, making annual cleaning a genuine air-quality necessity rather than a maintenance upsell.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Most homes went up between the 1980s and 2000s in master-planned tracts with flexible fiberglass ductwork routed through attics. In July and August, those attics hit 140°F, and the original fiberglass duct board in older sections of the city has been baking for decades. The internal liner deteriorates and releases glass particles into the airflow, a problem we rarely encounter in newer code-compliant builds. Meanwhile, the flexible duct in 1990s and 2000s homes sags, kinks, and separates at joints under thermal stress, creating leaks that pull attic dust directly into living spaces.
We’ve also found that Chino Hills’ hillside topography and strict HOA guidelines in gated communities like Vellano can affect access and scheduling. Some homes require longer hose runs from our van-mounted Nikro negative-air machines, and certain associations require advance notice for service vehicles. We coordinate dispatch from our Inland Empire office and build that lead time into every appointment.
Our Main Chino Hills Services
Most calls we get from Chino Hills homeowners fall into three categories. Each has its own dedicated page with full pricing, process details, and neighborhood-specific notes.
Air Duct Cleaning in Chino Hills
We clean the full supply and return system using a Rotobrush rotary brush system paired with Nikro negative-air extraction. In Chino Hills, we pay special attention to fireplace-ash residue in supply trunks and deteriorated fiberglass liner in older homes. The job includes all main trunk lines, branch ducts, and registers, with before-and-after photos of your own ducts so you see what came out. We write the price before we start, and it’s covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Air Duct Cleaning in Chino Hills
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Chino Hills
Dryer vent cleaning runs the full exhaust path from the back of your dryer to the exterior termination. In Chino Hills, the long vent runs common in two-story tract homes and townhomes create more lint accumulation points than shorter single-story runs. We use rotary brushes and high-velocity air tools to clear the entire line, then verify airflow with a meter. If the vent fails within a year, we come back free under the 365-Day Done Right Promise.

Duct Sealing in Chino Hills
Duct sealing addresses the leaks and separations that thermal cycling creates in Chino Hills’ attic ductwork. We apply mastic sealant and mechanical fasteners at joints, then test with a duct blaster to verify leakage reduction. This is often the right follow-up to cleaning when our inspection finds significant separation in 1990s-era flexible duct. The price is written and agreed before we begin, and the seal is guaranteed for 365 days. Duct Sealing in Chino Hills

What pushes Chino Hills jobs toward the higher end: dual-zone systems common in 3,000+ square foot homes, deteriorated duct board requiring gentle handling and extra time, and long hose runs for hillside properties.
