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 Wrightwood, CA
Air duct cleaning in Wrightwood typically runs $450 – $850 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. Because Wrightwood sits above 6,000 feet with forced-air heating running seven months or more, local ductwork collects heavier loads of dust, wood-smoke residue, and pet dander than systems in lower-elevation desert towns. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Garrison Partners family, and we dispatch crews to Wrightwood from our Los Angeles scheduling office. Call (361) 326-5060 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Wrightwood Homes Are Different
Wrightwood’s altitude and climate change everything about how duct systems age and what they collect. With average annual snowfall over 100 inches, heating systems run hard from October through May, pushing heated air through ductwork for seven or more consecutive months. That extended runtime means dust, skin cells, and pet dander compact into layers that shallow cleaning won’t touch.
Wood-burning stoves and fireplaces are common here, and their fine particulate matter migrates into return ducts. Snowmelt and seasonal humidity can introduce moisture into crawl spaces and attics, creating conditions for mold in fiberglass-lined ductwork. Many Wrightwood properties are second homes or vacation rentals, so ducts sit dormant for weeks at a stretch, allowing rodent nesting and musty buildup that requires more than standard brushing.
In the older cabins along the east side near Lone Pine Canyon, original galvanized ducts have endured decades of thermal expansion and contraction. Pinhole leaks develop, blowing heated air into cold attics instead of living spaces. After heavy snow loads compress insulation and shift framing, those leaks worsen. We see this pattern regularly, and it changes how we approach both cleaning and sealing recommendations.
Our Main Wrightwood Services
Most Wrightwood homeowners call us for one of three jobs, each with its own page and pricing details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Wrightwood
Our Air Duct Cleaning in Wrightwood service uses Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines to dislodge and extract compacted debris from supply and return lines. In Wrightwood, we often find heavy loading from extended heating seasons and wood-smoke particulate. We inspect before we quote, photograph the interior condition, and provide a written price before any equipment enters your home.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Wrightwood
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Wrightwood addresses lint buildup that accelerates in cold-weather months when dryers work harder and vents may ice over at the termination point. Blocked vents are a genuine fire hazard, and in mountain homes with longer vent runs through unconditioned spaces, airflow restriction is common. We clean the full run from drum to exterior hood and measure airflow before and after.
Duct Sealing in Wrightwood
Our Duct Sealing in Wrightwood targets the pinhole leaks and separated joints we find in aging galvanized systems, particularly in cabins near Lone Pine Canyon. We apply duct sealing mastic and mechanical fasteners to restore pressure balance, then test with a duct blaster to verify results. Sealed ducts deliver more heated air to rooms and reduce the runtime your furnace needs to maintain temperature.
