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 Rio Linda, CA
Homeowners in Rio Linda typically pay $350 – $650 for whole-house air duct cleaning, with most jobs scheduled within a few business days. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we’ve built our work in Rio Linda around one reality: this town’s mix of agricultural valley dust, rice-burning residue, and evaporative cooler grit puts a unique load on ductwork you won’t find in Sacramento proper. Our crews arrive uniformed, price every job in writing before touching equipment, and back it with our 365-Day Done Right Promise. Call (361) 326-5060 for a free estimate.
Why Rio Linda Homes Are Different
Rio Linda sits in the Sacramento Valley’s agricultural dust belt, where spring rice-burning and orchard pollen season, plus the town’s heavy reliance on evaporative (swamp) coolers, means duct cleaning here is as much about clearing valley dust and cooler-borne grit as it is about furnace dust. No neighboring city has this exact mix of rural-agricultural particulates and whole-house evaporative-cooling residue.
The housing stock backs this up. Post-WWII ranches, 1970s-80s tract homes, and rural properties with detached shops dominate Rio Linda, many with original unsealed or short-run flexible duct in attics and under floors. We’ve found dead-end runs from homeowner DIY additions, collapsed flexible duct in crawl spaces, and mineral-crusted cooler ducting that standard suburban crews rarely encounter. Hot, dry summers above 100°F force HVAC systems to run long and hard, pulling valley dust deep into the system. Winter tule fog and damp spells leave ducts prone to condensation and musty microbial growth. Old-timers here point to the rice-harvest smoke and field dust that coats attic ductwork every fall, and the fact that swamp coolers feed many of these homes means our techs routinely pull cooler mineral scale and dead insects, not just furnace dust.
