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 Orangevale, CA
Air duct cleaning in Orangevale typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs scheduled within a few days and completed in three to five hours. The work here is shaped by oak woodland pollen, dry-season dust, and wildfire-smoke residue that accumulates in ductwork through long Sacramento Valley summers. Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family since 2004, sends background-checked, uniformed crews to Orangevale with written prices agreed before any equipment enters the home. Call us at (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Orangevale Homes Are Different
Orangevale sits in Sacramento County’s oak woodland belt, and that geography changes what we pull out of local ductwork. Fine oak pollen, leaf litter, and dry-weather dust get pulled into return-air systems year-round, especially from homes backing onto the American River Parkway corridor. That makes duct cleaning in Orangevale as much about allergen and wildfire-smoke residue management as it is about routine dust removal. We see calls spike after oak pollen season and again during Sacramento Valley wildfire smoke events, when homeowners find gray ash dust blowing from vents even with windows closed.
Much of the housing stock is mid-century to 1980s ranch-style and tract homes, often with original or lightly modified forced-air ductwork. Some still run older flex-duct through attics, which are prone to rodent entry and debris buildup. Newer infill and custom homes near the eastern edge tend to have tighter, more modern duct systems that mainly need particulate and allergen cleaning. The hot-summer Mediterranean climate means long dry stretches where dust and pollen accumulate uninterrupted, followed by winter rains that can drive moisture and rodents into attic duct chases. Seasonal inspection matters here more than in milder climates.
Our Main Orangevale Services
Orangevale homeowners call us most often for these three services, each handled with The Garrison Standard: written price, written guarantee, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every job.
Air Duct Cleaning in Orangevale
We clean supply and return ducts, registers, and the air handler using a Rotobrush rotary brush system or Nikro negative-air machine depending on duct material and buildup level. In Orangevale, this means addressing oak pollen compaction in flex-duct runs and wildfire-smoke ash that settles in metal trunk lines. We run a camera before and after so you see what was in there. Every job gets a written price upfront and is covered by our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Air Duct Cleaning in Orangevale
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Orangevale
Lint accumulation in dryer vents is a fire hazard and efficiency killer, especially in older Orangevale homes where vent runs may be longer or routed through attic spaces. We clear the full run from dryer to termination, check airflow with a meter, and verify the exterior damper operates freely. If the vent line is damaged or improperly routed, we note it in writing before suggesting any repair. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Orangevale
Duct Sealing in Orangevale
Leaky ducts waste conditioned air and pull attic dust into living spaces. In Orangevale’s older ranch homes, we often find disconnected flex-duct joints and gaps at plenum connections. We seal with mastic and mechanical fasteners, then pressure-test to verify results. This is particularly valuable for homes near the American River Parkway where fine dust infiltration is already elevated. Duct Sealing in Orangevale
