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 Salt Lake City
Air duct cleaning in Salt Lake City typically runs $350 – $650 for a full residential system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and our Air Duct Cleaning team has been clearing ductwork along the Wasatch Front since 2004. Salt Lake City’s unique position at the base of the Oquirrh and Wasatch ranges creates air quality challenges you won’t find in most American cities, and that geography shapes how we approach every job.
We answer our phones live, 24 hours a day. When you call (361) 326-5060, you’ll speak to a person who can book your free estimate and explain exactly what our technicians will do in your home. No voicemail loops. No “we’ll call you back Monday.” Our background-checked, uniformed crews serve neighborhoods from the Avenues down to Rose Park and across to the east bench, arriving inside the quoted window and pricing every job in writing before touching your system.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is Salt Lake City’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve built our reputation in Salt Lake City on operational specifics, not adjectives. The Garrison Standard requires our technicians to arrive inside the quoted window, price the job in writing before any work starts, complete the work by the book, and leave the site clean. Roy Castellanos, who leads Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, insists on this discipline because he’s seen what happens when tradespeople cut corners in homes along 1300 East or up in the Foothill Drive corridor.
Our 365-Day Done Right Promise covers every job in writing. If the work fails within a year, we return and make it right at no charge, including a free second visit. That guarantee matters in Salt Lake City, where winter inversions push furnaces to run continuously and any remaining debris gets recirculated for months.
Our technicians carry professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies, the same tools commercial crews use in hospitals and schools. We also stock filtration products from Honeywell and Aprilaire for Salt Lake City homeowners who want to maintain cleaner air between service visits.
Calls are answered by a live person around the clock. When you’re staring at black dust around your ceiling vents in a Sugar House bungalow at 10 PM, you can still reach us and get your appointment scheduled.
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Salt Lake City
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Salt Lake City addresses the entire forced-air system: supply ducts that push heated or cooled air into rooms, return ducts that pull air back to the furnace or air handler, and the trunk lines that connect them. In Salt Lake City, this service is particularly important because the Wasatch Front’s winter temperature inversions create some of the nation’s worst short-term air quality, pushing residents to run furnaces and air handlers nearly continuously. That constant circulation pulls more dust through the system and deposits it in ductwork, especially in older homes with original galvanized steel ducts.
A typical residential HVAC duct cleaning in Salt Lake City runs $350 – $650 depending on system size and accessibility. Homes in the Avenues or Capitol Hill with basement furnaces and accessible trunk lines tend toward the lower end; tight-built newer subdivisions in Draper or West Jordan with multiple zones and flex duct in attics may run higher.
Full System Cleaning
We clean every accessible component: supply and return ducts, trunk lines, plenums, and registers. Our Nikro negative-air machines create suction at the furnace while Rotobrush rotary systems scrub debris from duct walls. In Salt Lake City, we regularly pull out a thick, dark accumulation of wood-smoke soot mixed with mineral dust from the Great Salt Lake’s dry lakebed, a combination our technicians rarely see in other markets.
Video Inspection
Before and after photos show you what we found. Our cameras navigate ductwork in pre-1920s bungalows with tight turns and in newer homes with flexible ducting that can sag and trap dust. You’ll see the debris, and you’ll see the clean duct behind it.
Vent Cleaning in Salt Lake City
Vent Cleaning in Salt Lake City focuses on the visible supply and return registers and the short duct runs immediately behind them. This is the work homeowners often attempt themselves, but the black, gritty dust that accumulates around Salt Lake City vents during inversion season usually signals deeper contamination that register-level cleaning won’t reach.
Standalone vent cleaning in Salt Lake City typically costs $150 – $280 for a standard home with 8 – 12 registers. Many homeowners combine this with full HVAC duct cleaning for a complete system refresh, especially before winter when furnaces will run continuously for months.
Register and Grille Restoration
We remove each register, clean it off-site, and treat stained or discolored grilles. The fine, sticky dust from Great Salt Lake wind events bonds to metal and plastic differently than ordinary household dust, and our cleaning process addresses that specific residue.
Return Vent Deep Cleaning
Return vents pull air back to your furnace and collect the most debris. In Salt Lake City homes near the east bench or in the Avenues, where cold air pools against the Wasatch foothills during inversions, we often find returns clogged with a dense mat of wood-smoke particulates and mineral dust that restricts airflow and forces your blower motor to work harder.
Trusted Brands We Service in Salt Lake City
We clean and service ductwork connected to all major HVAC brands, and we stock filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman for Salt Lake City homeowners who want to upgrade their system’s particle capture between professional cleanings. Our technicians arrive with the right adapters and tools for your specific duct configuration, whether you have a vintage furnace in a 1920s Avenues bungalow or a modern variable-speed system in a tight-built West Jordan subdivision. We also handle Dryer Vent Cleaning in Salt Lake City and Duct Sealing in Salt Lake City for homeowners who want their complete air distribution system addressed in one visit.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Salt Lake City Homes
- Inversion soot accumulation: Salt Lake City’s winter inversions trap PM2.5 and wood-smoke particulates in the valley, coating ductwork and filters with a fine, dark grit that homeowners often first notice as black dust around ceiling vents. This isn’t ordinary dust, and standard furnace filters won’t capture all of it.
- Original galvanized ductwork in older neighborhoods: Pre-1920s brick bungalows in Sugar House and the Avenues frequently still have their original galvanized steel ducts, which corrode internally and create pockets where decades of debris accumulate. These systems require careful cleaning to avoid damaging fragile metal.
- Sagging flexible duct in newer construction: 1950s-60s ranch homes in Rose Park and Millcreek, plus newer tight-built subdivisions, often use flexible ducting that can sag between supports and trap dust in low spots. Our cameras locate these accumulations before we begin cleaning.
- Dry lakebed dust infiltration: Fine, sticky dust from the Great Salt Lake’s exposed dry lakebed gets pulled into return-air systems during wind events, bonding to duct walls differently than ordinary household dust and requiring professional-grade rotary brush systems to remove completely.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Salt Lake City, UT
We believe in honest, upfront pricing with no surprises. Here’s what air duct cleaning costs in the Salt Lake City market:

| Video inspection add-on | $75 – $125 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (combined service) | $120 – $200 |

A single-story ranch in Rose Park with a basement furnace and 8 registers costs less than a multi-zone system in a Draper two-story with attic ductwork and 20+ registers. We inspect your system, give you a written price before any work starts, and that price does not move at the door. No per-vent upcharges. No “we found a surprise” add-ons. Call (361) 326-5060 for your free estimate.
