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.

Cos Cob’s mix of antique Colonials, post-and-beam farmhouses, and later capes means no two duct systems look alike, and we’ve built our process around that reality.

Residential Air Duct Cleaning in Cos Cob
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in Cos Cob means clearing dust, debris, mold spores, and allergens from the full network of supply and return ducts that move conditioned air through your home. Most Cos Cob houses we service fall into two categories: the historic post-and-beam homes near Strickland Road and River Road, where original HVAC chases hide inside plaster-and-lath walls, and the mid-century capes and ranches on the east side of town with more accessible basement ductwork. A typical full residential cleaning in Cos Cob runs $350 – $650 depending on system size, accessibility, and contamination level.
Historic Home Duct Systems
Original galvanized steel ducts in Cos Cob’s 18th- and 19th-century homes often sit inside chases designed for old heating pipes, making them hard to reach without damaging fragile plaster. We use flexible camera systems and low-impact rotary brushes from Rotobrush to navigate these tight spaces without disturbing historic finishes.
Modern System Deep Cleaning
For homes with added flex duct or updated HVAC, we deploy negative-air machines from Nikro to pull debris out under controlled suction rather than blowing it loose into your living space. Every residential job includes before-and-after photos of your own ducts so you can see what was removed.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Cos Cob
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Cos Cob covers office buildings, retail spaces, restaurants, and multi-unit properties where code compliance, employee health, and HVAC efficiency carry real financial stakes. Cos Cob’s commercial stock includes converted historic structures along the Post Road corridor and newer construction near the I-95 interchange, each presenting different access challenges and regulatory requirements. Typical commercial duct cleaning in Cos Cob ranges from $800 for small retail suites to $2,400 for larger multi-zone systems.
Code Compliance and Documentation
Commercial properties in Cos Cob need documented cleaning for insurance, lease agreements, and health department compliance. We provide written reports with photo documentation and equipment logs that satisfy inspectors and underwriters.
Minimizing Business Disruption
We schedule commercial work around your operating hours, including early mornings and weekends, to avoid interrupting customer traffic or employee productivity. Our crews work efficiently with professional-grade equipment from Abatement Technologies to complete most commercial jobs in a single session.
Trusted Brands We Service in Cos Cob
Hollis Air Duct Cleaning works with professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies, and we stock filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman for Cos Cob customers who need replacement components. These are the same tools commercial crews use, not hardware-store gear, and our technicians can explain what each piece does and why we selected it for your specific system. Because we maintain relationships with these manufacturers, parts turnaround for Cos Cob jobs is fast, and we don’t leave you waiting on back-ordered filters or specialized fittings.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Cos Cob Homes
- Mold and dust-mite buildup from river and Sound humidity. Cos Cob’s damp winters and humid summers along the Mianus River and Long Island Sound create conditions inside ductwork that drier inland towns simply don’t face. Annual cleaning is more critical here because moisture trapped in debris colonies feeds persistent biological growth that standard filters won’t catch.
- Decades of debris in long-unused chases. The frequent use of window air conditioners in historic homes without central systems means many Cos Cob homeowners add HVAC to houses where the original duct chases sat dormant for generations. We regularly pull out construction debris, rodent nesting material, and accumulated dust that predates the current owners.
- Mixed duct materials from decades of additions. Original galvanized steel joined with flex duct in later renovations creates connection points where debris collects and seals fail. Our video inspection identifies these transition zones before cleaning begins.
- Fragile plaster-and-lath walls around hidden chases. In the Strickland Road and River Road historic districts, aggressive cleaning methods can crack irreplaceable finishes. We adjust our approach based on what the camera shows inside the wall cavity.
