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 South Apopka
Air duct cleaning in South Apopka typically runs $350 – $650 for a complete residential system, and most jobs are scheduled within a few days of your call. We’re the local crew that knows why your ducts look different here than they do inland.
South Apopka sits in the shadow of Lake Apopka, and that geography changes everything about what collects inside your HVAC system. We’ve pulled rotary brushes through ductwork near Sadler Road that came out coated in greenish algae film, and we’ve cleared return plenums in homes off Rock Springs Road packed with decades of pollen and agricultural dust. Our dispatch team operates from our Miami office, but our crews live and work in the Orlando metro area, which means we’re familiar with the split-level homes near Welch Road and the manufactured housing communities along Orange Blossom Trail. When you call (361) 326-5060, a live person answers, and we’ll get you a written price before anyone touches your system.
Why Hollis Air Duct Cleaning Is South Apopka’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been doing this since 2004, and our reputation in South Apopka is built on showing up inside the window we promised and leaving the site clean. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained on Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines, the same equipment commercial crews use in hospitals and schools.
Response time to South Apopka is typically same-week scheduling, with most residential cleanings booked within three to five days. We don’t play the dispatch game where you’re told “morning” and the van shows up at 4 p.m. The Garrison Code requires we arrive inside the quoted window, price in writing, and complete the job by the book.
Our local knowledge matters here in ways it doesn’t inland. We know that after strong east winds off Lake Apopka, our phones light up with musty odor calls from homes near the lakefront. We know which neighborhoods have original fiberboard ductwork from the 1970s that needs gentler handling than modern flex duct. And we know that greenish tint in your registers isn’t ordinary dust, it’s biological residue from the lake’s ongoing restoration, and it takes more than a shop vac to remove safely.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in South Apopka
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in South Apopka covers restaurants near the Orange Blossom Trail corridor, medical offices serving the growing population along Rock Springs Road, and retail spaces in the older strip centers near Main Street. These buildings typically have metal trunk lines and rooftop units that accumulate grease, pollen, and construction dust from nearby roadwork. A typical commercial system in South Apopka runs $800 – $2,400 depending on square footage and access complexity.
Restaurant and Kitchen Exhaust Systems
Grease-laden vapors from cooking equipment travel through shared ductwork and create fire hazards if not cleaned on schedule. We use Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration to capture particulate during the cleaning process, keeping your dining room operational while we work.
Medical and Professional Office Cleaning
Clinics near South Apopka’s residential core need documented cleaning cycles for compliance. We provide before-and-after photos of your ductwork and a written service report for your records, backed by our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in South Apopka
Air Duct Cleaning Services in South Apopka address the specific contamination profile that comes from living downwind of Florida’s largest lake. Residential systems here typically cost $350 – $650 for a full cleaning, with older homes requiring additional time for careful handling of aged ductwork. Our Air Duct Cleaning team uses video inspection to show you the interior condition before we start, so you see exactly what we’re removing.
Supply and Return Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts push conditioned air into your rooms; returns pull air back to the handler. In South Apopka, returns are where we find the heaviest buildup of algae spores and pollen. We clean both sides of the system because cleaning only one is like washing half a window.
Full System Cleaning with Video Documentation
Our process includes the main trunk lines, branch ducts, registers, and the air handler cabinet. You’ll receive before-and-after footage from our duct camera, plus a written summary of what was found and removed. No guesswork, no “trust us” claims.

Trusted Brands We Service in South Apopka
We stock parts and filtration products from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman for South Apopka customers, which means faster turnaround when your system needs more than just cleaning. If your air handler needs a new media filter during the service call, we’ve got it on the truck. The same goes for UV light replacements and duct sealing mastic. We don’t make you wait for a second trip because we didn’t bring the right materials. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush rotary brush systems for mechanical agitation and Nikro negative-air machines for controlled debris extraction, the same tools specified for commercial jobs in Orlando and Tampa.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in South Apopka Homes
- Algae and biological film from Lake Apopka. Homes within a mile of the lake, especially near Sadler Road and the lakefront areas, often develop a greenish coating on register fins and inside return plenums. Standard dust removal doesn’t touch it; we use specialized sanitizing agents followed by HEPA vacuum extraction.
- Deteriorated flex duct from the 1970s and 1980s. Much of South Apopka’s housing stock was built during these decades with fiberboard or early flex duct that has become brittle. Our technicians are trained to identify when ductwork is too fragile for aggressive cleaning and will show you the condition before proceeding.
- Poorly sealed duct connections wasting cooled air. Humid attic air gets pulled into leaks, overworking your AC and introducing mold spores. We also handle Duct Sealing in South Apopka for homes where leakage is the bigger problem than contamination.
- Musty odors after heavy east winds. When wind patterns push across Lake Apopka, airborne organic matter enters older systems with weak filtration. We see this spike in calls from neighborhoods near Welch Road and Rock Springs Road, and we address it with full system cleaning plus filter upgrades.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in South Apopka, FL
A typical residential duct cleaning in South Apopka runs $350 – $650 for a complete system, depending on home size, duct accessibility, and contamination level. Older homes with original ductwork or hard-to-access attics fall toward the higher end. Commercial systems start around $800 and range up to $2,400 for larger buildings with rooftop units and extensive trunk lines.
What moves the price: square footage, number of registers and returns, whether your ductwork is accessible or buried in a tight attic, and whether we find conditions requiring additional sanitizing. We don’t quote per-vent pricing because that’s the bait-and-switch model, a low teaser that balloons once the crew is inside. We give one flat price per system, agreed in writing before any work starts. Estimates are free. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll schedule a walkthrough.
