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 Palm Valley, FL
Air duct cleaning in Palm Valley runs $320 – $580 for a typical single-family home, with most jobs completed in one visit. The salt-laden Atlantic air and strict Florida energy code requirements for sealed ductwork mean this work demands specialized equipment and technicians who understand coastal HVAC systems, not a standard brush-and-vacuum crew. We dispatch from our Miami office and serve Palm Valley homes with Rotobrush rotary systems and Nikro negative-air machines calibrated for insulated flex duct and salt-coated coils. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work begins.
Why Palm Valley Homes Are Different
Palm Valley’s luxury homes sit in a salt-aerosol belt where fine ocean salt deposits coat HVAC evaporator coils and duct interiors year-round. The Atlantic lies just over the dunes, and that proximity changes everything about how we clean. After a nor’easter or tropical storm, service calls spike in Sawgrass and Palm Valley neighborhoods because wind-driven salt spray enters attic vents and outdoor returns, leaving a gritty film inside the first few feet of supply ducts. Homeowners notice it as a sticky dust blowing from their vents.
The local building code adds another layer. All post-2002 homes must be built with sealed, insulated duct chases, which means air duct cleaning here requires specialized negative-air equipment and coil-safe antimicrobial treatments. The housing stock, dominated by 1990s – 2020s upscale single-family homes with two-story open foyers and multi-zone HVAC systems, often has flex-duct runs in attic spaces that can be crushed by aggressive brushes. Our crews are trained to read duct labels and adjust pressure accordingly.
Then there’s the climate. Average summer dew points above 75°F combined with year-round salt air create rapid mold and mildew growth inside supply ducts and on evaporator coils. The May – September cooling season runs almost nonstop, circulating damp, salty air through the system. Annual cleaning here is a health necessity, not a comfort upgrade.
Our Main Palm Valley Services
Most Palm Valley homeowners call us for one of three jobs, each with its own page and pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Palm Valley
We clean the full supply and return network using a negative-air method that pulls debris toward the vacuum while a rotary brush loosens buildup. In Palm Valley, we pre-treat evaporator coils with a salt-dissolving foam before the main cleaning, then apply an antimicrobial to slow mold regrowth in the humid months. Every job gets a written price upfront and before-and-after photos of your own ducts. Air Duct Cleaning in Palm Valley covers full pricing and what to expect.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Palm Valley
Salt air corrodes dryer vent hoods and lint traps faster inland, and the longer vent runs common in two-story Palm Valley homes increase fire risk. We use a rotary brush and high-velocity vacuum to clear the full run from appliance to exterior hood, then test airflow with an anemometer to verify performance. If the vent needs rerouting to meet current code, we note it in writing before any additional work. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Palm Valley has the details.
Duct Sealing in Palm Valley
Florida’s energy code requires sealed ducts, but tape and mastic degrade in attic heat. We apply duct sealing mastic to joints and connections, then pressure-test the system to confirm no leaks. For Palm Valley homes with flex duct in salt-air attics, we inspect for corrosion at metal connections and replace compromised sections before sealing. Duct Sealing in Palm Valley explains when sealing beats replacement.
