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.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in Denton, TX
Air duct cleaning in Denton typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and our crews work Denton’s unique housing stock daily, from the historic post-war homes near Texas Woman’s University to the converted lofts around the downtown square. The combination of aging galvanized ductwork, heavy summer AC use, and a high turnover of student rentals means Denton jobs require equipment and technique that standard brush-and-vacuum outfits often skip. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Denton Homes Are Different
Denton’s housing market splits into two distinct worlds that both create dirty ducts. Near UNT and TWU, rental properties built between the 1940s and 1970s still run original galvanized steel ductwork. That metal rusts from the inside, sheds flakes into the airflow, and leaks at every joint, pulling attic insulation fibers down into the living space. We’ve opened systems in the TWU area where the dust load was half fiberglass batting that had been breathing through gaps for thirty years.
The historic downtown square and surrounding neighborhoods add another layer. Century-old buildings converted to lofts and commercial spaces carry retrofitted HVAC systems with cramped, irregular duct runs that don’t match any standard layout. Technicians need Rotobrush rotary systems with flexible shafts and HEPA containment, not rigid rods that can’t navigate a 90-degree turn in a 12-inch chase.
Climate compounds everything. Denton’s humid subtropical pattern drives AC hard from May through September, and the spring thunderstorm season pushes humidity into attics and crawlspaces. Ducts that already leak pull that moist air inside, creating the mold spore loads that trigger allergy complaints every August. We see the pattern every year: calls spike two weeks after the first 95-degree day, when systems that were “fine” in April suddenly smell musty.
Our Main Denton Services
These are the three jobs we handle most often in Denton. Each has its own page with full pricing, process details, and neighborhood-specific notes.
Air Duct Cleaning in Denton
Whole-system cleaning for Denton’s mixed housing stock, from ranch-style ducts in Southridge to the tight retrofitted runs downtown. We use negative-air machines from Nikro to pull debris toward the vacuum while rotary brushes from Rotobrush knock loose the packed dust that settles in low spots. In older neighborhoods, we often find original 1950s galvanized trunk lines that have never been cleaned. The combination of rust scale and attic insulation fibers requires HEPA filtration and controlled agitation, not brute force that could damage fragile metal. Air Duct Cleaning in Denton covers full pricing and what to expect on your specific home type.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Denton
Lint buildup in dryer vents is a genuine fire hazard, and Denton’s older homes often have vent runs that exceed modern code length or terminate in awkward spots. We clean the full run from dryer to exterior cap, check airflow with a manometer, and flag any flexible transition hose that should be solid metal. Student rentals near campus are particularly prone to neglected vents, with multiple tenants and no owner-occupied maintenance routine. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Denton has pricing and scheduling details.
Duct Sealing in Denton
Leaky ducts waste 20 – 30% of conditioned air in most Denton homes, and the problem is worst in the older galvanized systems common near the universities. We apply mastic sealant and mechanical fasteners at every accessible joint, then pressure-test the system to verify results. Duct sealing often pays for itself in reduced runtime during July and August, when Denton systems work hardest. Duct Sealing in Denton explains the process and typical return on investment for local utility rates.
