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.

AfterLennox Air Duct Cleaning in Atlanta, CA | Hollis Air Duct Cleaning
We provide independent Air Duct Cleaning - Atlanta for Lennox systems, and the thing that sets our work apart here is simple: we know what Atlanta’s pollen season and humidity do to a Lennox system, and we clean accordingly. Most Atlanta homes with Lennox equipment have never had a deep duct cleaning, which means years of pine pollen film, red clay dust, and flex duct deterioration are sitting inside the system right now. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate, and we’ll give you a written price before any work begins.
Why Atlanta Residents Choose Us for Lennox Service
Hollis Air Duct Cleaning has been in business since 2004, and Roy Castellanos, our owner, cut his teeth in the mechanical trades across Los Angeles County and learned HVAC fundamentals through the sheet metal and air conditioning program at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College. That background matters when we open up a Lennox air handler in an Atlanta attic. We know what we’re looking at, and we explain it in plain English before we touch anything. We’re an independent Lennox service provider. We are not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by Lennox. What we are is a local Atlanta crew that understands how Lennox equipment behaves in this specific climate, and we stock the parts and tools to clean it right. Our Lennox sales & service experience spans thousands of systems across the metro, and every job gets a written price and the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.
Common Lennox Air Duct Cleaning Problems We Solve in Atlanta
- Pine pollen film on return ducts and blower wheels. After a heavy pine pollen week in March or April, Lennox air handlers in Atlanta’s northern suburbs develop a thick, sticky yellow-green film on the blower wheel and return ducts. Standard vacuuming won’t remove it. It needs agitation and antimicrobial treatment because the pollen binds like glue under Atlanta’s humid conditions.
- Flex duct collapse in unconditioned attics. Thousands of 1980s to 2000s builder-grade homes in Alpharetta, Roswell, and Johns Creek were built with flex duct running through sweltering attics. Over time, that duct sags, kinks, or collapses, choking airflow and leaving upstairs bedrooms hot while the downstairs stays cool. We repair or replace those runs.
- Mold and mildew on evaporator coils. Atlanta’s humid subtropical climate means your Lennox system runs nearly year-round. Short, mild winters don’t give coils a chance to dry out. We routinely find mold on evaporator coils and duct insulation, which explains the musty smell homeowners report when the AC kicks on.
- Leaking duct joints pulling red clay dust. Duct joints in builder-grade homes separate at the takeoffs. When that happens in an Atlanta crawlspace or attic, the system pulls in the region’s red clay soil and distributes it through every vent. We reseal joints with mastic and clean the full system so the dust stops circulating.
- Reduced airflow from neglected return ducts. When return ducts are coated with years of pollen, dust, and debris, your Lennox air handler has to work harder to pull air. That shortens blower motor life and raises your bill. A full system cleaning restores the airflow the equipment was designed for.
Lennox Service in Atlanta: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s something most Lennox owners in Atlanta don’t realize until they see it: after a heavy pine pollen week in March or April, the return ducts and air handlers in homes across the northern crescent develop a film that behaves more like adhesive than dust. In neighborhoods like Johns Creek and Roswell, where pines line the streets and HVAC systems pull outdoor air through return leaks, that yellow-green pollen mixes with Atlanta’s high humidity and bakes onto the blower wheel and duct walls. A standard vacuum pass won’t budge it. It requires mechanical agitation plus antimicrobial treatment to release and remove the film without leaving behind an environment where mold takes hold. If you’re running a Lennox Merit Series or Elite Series system and you’ve noticed a faint musty or piney smell when the air kicks on, that’s what you’re smelling. We see it every spring across Atlanta, and we’re set up to handle it the right way.
Lennox Models & Products We Service in Atlanta
We clean and service duct systems paired with Lennox Merit Series units like the 14ACX and ML14XC1, Elite Series models including the EL16XC1 and EL18XCV, and Dave Lennox Signature Collection systems such as the SL28XCV and SL25XPV. We also work on Lennox air handlers including the CBA38MV and CBA27UHE. When a critical component like a blower motor or control board needs replacement, we use OEM Lennox parts for compatibility. For duct repairs, we use high-quality aftermarket flex duct, mastic, and sealants that meet or exceed builder-grade materials. No corners cut, no compatibility guesswork. We stock the common materials locally so Atlanta jobs don’t stall waiting on freight.
Lennox Service Pricing in Atlanta
Air duct cleaning for a typical Atlanta home generally runs between $450 and $900 for a full system, depending on the number of zones, accessibility of the ductwork, and whether flex duct repair or antimicrobial treatment is needed. Evaporator coil cleaning typically adds $150 to $300 when done as part of a full cleaning. Flex duct repair or replacement runs $300 to $700 per run depending on length and attic access. What drives the cost in Atlanta is the condition of the ductwork. A 1990s home with original flex duct in a tight attic takes longer than a newer home with accessible runs. Before we start, we give you a written price. That price does not move. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll walk through what your Lennox system actually needs, not a menu of extras.

FAQs – Lennox Air Duct Cleaning in Atlanta
That film is pine pollen bonding with Atlanta’s spring humidity. It sticks to return ducts and blower wheels, and a standard vacuum won’t remove it. Our cleaning includes mechanical agitation and antimicrobial treatment specifically to break down and remove that film. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate if you’re seeing it.
Yes. We clean 1980s Lennox systems with flex duct in unconditioned attics across Atlanta’s northern suburbs regularly. We inspect for collapse, sag, and leaks first, then clean with equipment designed to handle aging flex duct without tearing it. If a run is too far gone, we’ll tell you and quote a replacement before touching anything.
Every 3 to 5 years for most Atlanta homes. If you have heavy pine coverage near your home in the northern suburbs, or if your system pulls from a crawlspace with exposed red clay, you may need it every 2 to 3 years. The humid subtropical climate keeps systems running nearly year-round, which accelerates buildup. We’ll give you an honest recommendation after we inspect, not a calendar-based upsell.
Cleaning the ducts addresses the pathways that carry air through your home. Cleaning the air handler addresses the blower wheel, evaporator coil, and housing where the air is conditioned. Both matter in Atlanta because pollen, mold, and red clay dust collect in both places. Our full system cleaning covers both, and we’ll show you before-and-after photos so you can see the work was done.
For critical components like blower motors and control boards, yes. For duct repairs, we use high-quality aftermarket flex duct, mastic, and sealants. That’s because Lennox doesn’t manufacture duct material itself, and the aftermarket options we carry meet or exceed what builders originally installed. For anything electrical or mechanical, OEM is the standard. Call (361) 326-5060 if you have a specific question about your system.
