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.

AfterTrane Air Duct Cleaning in Atlanta, CA | Hollis Air Duct Cleaning
Hollis Air Duct Cleaning - Atlanta provides independent Trane air duct and coil cleaning across the city, from intown bungalows to the northern suburbs. We are not affiliated with Trane, and we don’t pretend to be. What we are is a local crew that has pulled apart enough Trane systems in this city to know exactly what Georgia pollen, red clay dust, and twenty-year-old flex duct do to them. If you own a Trane system in Atlanta, call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate and a written price before any work starts.
Why Atlanta Residents Choose Us for Trane Service
We’ve worked on Trane equipment in Atlanta service area homes since 2004. That matters because Trane systems have specific layouts, and cleaning them properly means knowing where the coil sits, how the blower is housed, and what the factory flex duct connections look like after two decades in a Georgia attic. Roy Castellanos, our owner, came up through the sheet metal and air conditioning program at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College and spent years doing hands-on duct work before starting Hollis. He built the company around one idea: leave the system cleaner than we found it, with no upsells and no guesswork. For Trane owners, that means we quote the job in writing, show up in uniform, and stand behind the work for a full year under our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Common Trane Air Duct Cleaning Problems We Solve in Atlanta
- Thick pine pollen film on evaporator coils. Atlanta’s March and April pollen season coats Trane coils with a sticky yellow-green layer. If it isn’t agitated and treated, airflow drops and the coil can ice up. We see this every spring in Alpharetta and Roswell homes.
- Collapsed or torn builder-grade flex duct in unconditioned attics. Many 1990s and 2000s Trane systems in Atlanta were installed with low-grade flex runs. Heat and humidity break down the outer jacket, the inner liner tears at connections, and the system starts pulling red clay dust and attic air into the house. We repair or replace the damaged sections and seal them properly.
- Clogged variable-speed blowers on XV and ComfortLink II systems. Trane’s variable-speed blowers are sensitive. A layer of fine dust and pollen throws off static pressure readings, the blower hunts, and motor wear accelerates. A proper return duct cleaning usually restores normal operation.
- Decades of debris in intown return chases. Grant Park and Kirkwood bungalows with original Trane equipment often have return ducts that haven’t been touched since the system was installed. The buildup restricts airflow and forces the system to run longer than it should.
- Mold spore buildup from summer humidity. Atlanta’s long, humid summers keep ducts damp. Combined with organic material already sitting in the ductwork, that’s a recipe for microbial growth. We address it with antimicrobial treatment after mechanical cleaning.
Trane Service in Atlanta: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Here’s the thing about Atlanta that doesn’t show up on a generic air duct cleaning page: after a heavy pine pollen week in March or April, we find return ducts and Trane air handlers across the city coated with a thick, sticky yellow-green film that standard vacuuming cannot remove without agitation and antimicrobial treatment. A typical negative-air pass just doesn’t touch it. The pollen binds to coil fins and duct walls, bakes on through the first heat cycle, and then hardens. In a 1998 Alpharetta home with a Trane XR13 system, our crew found exactly that. The return duct and evaporator coil had years of baked-on pollen layered over each other. We agitated the coil, treated it, cleaned the return duct, and replaced a torn section of flex duct in the attic. The homeowner felt the difference immediately: stronger airflow, less dust settling on furniture, and a system that wasn’t fighting itself to move air.
Trane Models & Products We Service in Atlanta
We service the full range of Trane residential equipment you’re likely to find in Atlanta homes. That includes the XR Series (XR13, XR14, XR16) air conditioners, the XV Series (XV18, XV20i) variable-speed heat pumps, S-Series and T-Series furnaces, and ComfortLink II communicating systems. For critical components like blower motors and control boards, we use OEM Trane parts. For filters, flex duct, mastic sealants, and other consumables, we use quality aftermarket products that meet or exceed factory spec. This keeps repair costs reasonable without cutting corners on what actually matters. We’ll also give you a straight answer on whether a Trane unit is worth repairing or better replaced, based on age, refrigerant type, and the condition of the ductwork. If you’re considering a new system, our Trane sales & service team can walk you through options.
Trane Service Pricing in Atlanta
Air duct cleaning for a Trane system in Atlanta typically runs $450 to $850 depending on the size of the house, the number of returns, and how long it’s been since the last cleaning. Evaporator coil cleaning adds roughly $150 to $300, and flex duct repair is quoted based on the linear feet of damaged material. A full system with heavy pollen buildup, coil treatment, and attic duct repair can reach $1,200 to $1,800. Every job gets a written price before we start, and that number doesn’t move at the door.

FAQs – Trane Air Duct Cleaning in Atlanta
Atlanta’s spring pollen season deposits a sticky film on return ducts and evaporator coils. On Trane systems, that film builds up fastest on the coil’s leading edge and inside return boots. Left alone, it reduces airflow, increases static pressure, and can cause coil icing. Cleaning requires agitation, not just vacuuming, which is why we run brush systems on pollen-affected ductwork. Call (361) 326-5060 to schedule a spring cleaning before the buildup bakes on.
Dirty ducts and a restricted coil can absolutely cause a Trane XV or ComfortLink II system to run longer than it should. Variable-speed blowers adjust to static pressure. When the ductwork is clogged, the blower works against the restriction, and the system takes longer to reach setpoint. The fix is often a thorough cleaning of the return side and the blower wheel, plus a coil cleaning if needed. We can assess that on-site and give you a written recommendation.
If a Trane system in Alpharetta has gone 25 to 30 years without duct cleaning, the ducts almost certainly hold pollen, red clay dust, and possibly torn flex sections pulling attic air. These homes were built with builder-grade flex duct that does not hold up well in Atlanta’s humidity. A first-time deep cleaning plus our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Atlanta and a duct integrity check is worth doing. Call (361) 326-5060 and we’ll tell you what we find before quoting a dollar amount.
In most cases, yes. We access the coil through the air handler cabinet, agitate the fins with a soft brush and coil-safe cleaner, then rinse and treat with an antimicrobial. If the coil is heavily impacted or the cabinet design doesn’t allow full access, we’ll tell you what removal involves and what it costs before we do anything. No surprises, no moving target on the price.
For Atlanta homes with Trane systems, we recommend every 3 to 5 years, with a shorter interval of 2 to 3 years if you have pets, allergies, or live near heavy tree cover. Homes along the northern crescent with mature pines may need more frequent spring cleanings. If you’re not sure, we’ll inspect and tell you honestly whether the ducts need work now or can wait. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
