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 Three Lakes, FL
Air duct cleaning in Three Lakes, FL typically runs $350 – $650 for a standard single-family home, and it’s a job that changes a lot depending on which part of Three Lakes you’re in. Homes here deal with year-round humidity that pushes dust, mold spores, and fine debris through the ductwork faster than drier regions, and many have HVAC systems that run nearly nonstop from April through October. If your vents are blowing dust onto furniture or you’re seeing buildup around return grates, call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll give you a written price before any equipment comes off the truck.
Why Three Lakes Homes Are Different
Three Lakes sits in a humid subtropical pocket where air conditioning isn’t optional, and that changes how we approach duct cleaning here. The constant cycle of cooling and condensation means the inside of ductwork stays damp longer than in drier cities, which allows fine particles to stick to duct walls instead of blowing through. In practice, we see homes near the western residential stretches of Three Lakes accumulate a heavier, pastier buildup than homes elsewhere in South Florida, simply because of how much the systems run.
Homes here also tend to be a mix of single-story ranch-style builds and newer two-story construction, and that matters for duct design. Older ranch homes often have long, straight trunk lines that are easy to clean thoroughly with a rotary brush. Newer two-story homes frequently have split systems with multiple returns, which means more access points and a slightly longer job. We plan the work around how your specific ductwork was built, not around a one-size-fits-all checklist.
Our Main Three Lakes Services
Most Three Lakes homeowners call us for one of three jobs: dryer vent cleaning to cut lint buildup in the laundry line, full air duct cleaning to pull accumulated dust and debris from the system, and HVAC cleaning to address the coil and blower side of the equipment. Each has its own page with local pricing and specifics.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Three Lakes
Dryer vents in Three Lakes clog faster than homeowners expect, mostly because of the humidity. Lint that would stay dry and blow through in other climates turns damp and sticky here, and it catches at every bend in the vent line. We run a rotary brush through the full vent run from the dryer to the exterior termination point, then use a HEPA vacuum to capture everything we loosen. For the full breakdown on pricing and how we handle longer vent runs in Three Lakes, see Dryer Vent Cleaning in Three Lakes.
Air Duct Cleaning in Three Lakes
Full duct cleaning here means loosening and extracting the dust, pet dander, and construction debris that settles into your supply and return lines. We use Rotobrush rotary brush systems to agitate the duct walls and Nikro HEPA vacuums for negative-pressure extraction, which means the loosened debris goes into the vacuum instead of back into your living room. Three Lakes homes with heavy HVAC runtime often need a deeper initial clean than homes further north. Read the full Three Lakes breakdown here: Air Duct Cleaning in Three Lakes.
HVAC Cleaning in Three Lakes
HVAC cleaning covers the parts of the system that sit inside the air handler: the evaporator coil, blower wheel, and drain pan. When those components get coated with the damp, sticky film that Three Lakes humidity creates, the whole system loses airflow and efficiency. We clean the coil and blower by hand with professional-grade tools, not just a quick spray, and we check the condensate drain line while we’re in there.
