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 West Palm Beach, FL
Air duct cleaning in West Palm Beach typically costs $350 – $550 for a standard single-system home, and most jobs are completed in half a day. We’re Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Relay Home Co. family (founded 2005), and we do one thing differently in West Palm Beach: a written price before a single duct is touched. If your vents are blowing dust onto furniture along Flagler Drive or your AC has been running nonstop since April, call (737) 727-2314 for a straight answer.
Why West Palm Beach Homes Are Different
West Palm Beach air ducts work harder than almost anywhere else in Florida. The humidity sits above 70% for most of the year, which means condensation forms inside duct runs that run through hot attics. That moisture turns ordinary dust into a paste that clings to duct walls and feeds mold growth. Homes in neighborhoods like Flamingo Park and El Cid, many built between the 1920s and 1960s, often have original ductwork that was sized for window units, not modern central air. The salt air near the Intracoastal also accelerates corrosion on registers and interior duct lining. We see it every week: a homeowner replaces their AC filter monthly, yet dust still coats their ceiling fans within days. That’s not a filter problem. It’s what’s living inside the ducts.
Newer construction in areas like Ibis and Riverwalk presents a different issue: construction debris. Drywall dust, sawdust, and even paint chips get pulled into return ducts during the build and stay there for years. West Palm Beach’s flat terrain and sandy soil also mean outdoor condenser coils collect fine grit that eventually migrates into the return path. None of this is a condemnation of West Palm Beach homes. It’s just the reality of running air conditioning 300-plus days a year in a humid coastal climate.
Our Main West Palm Beach Services
Most West Palm Beach homeowners call us about two things: dryer vents that have never been cleaned since the house was built, and central air systems that keep cycling yet leave rooms feeling stale. Here’s what each job involves locally.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in West Palm Beach
Humidity makes West Palm Beach dryer vents clog differently than in drier climates. Lint that would blow through a vent in Arizona instead compacts against the first bend because the moisture keeps it sticky. Homes with laundry rooms in the center of the house, common in many West Palm Beach floor plans, often have vent runs of 15 to 25 feet with multiple elbows. That’s precisely where lint dams form. Dryer Vent Cleaning in West Palm Beach involves running a rotary brush through the full run, then verifying airflow at the exterior vent cap. If your dryer takes two cycles to dry towels, the vent is already partially blocked.
Air Duct Cleaning in West Palm Beach
Dust, pet dander, and humidity-driven buildup don’t just sit in West Palm Beach ducts. They recirculate every time the AC kicks on, which in July is roughly every 20 minutes. Air Duct Cleaning in West Palm Beach covers the full supply and return runs, with negative-pressure extraction so loosened debris goes directly into a HEPA-rated vacuum, never back into your living room. We photograph the interior before and after, so you see exactly what came out. Homeowners are consistently surprised by what’s inside ducts they assumed were fine.
HVAC Cleaning in West Palm Beach
The blower wheel, evaporator coil, and condensate pan are where West Palm Beach’s humidity does its worst work. A coil caked with a biofilm of dust and moisture transfers heat poorly, forcing your system to run longer and work harder. HVAC Cleaning in West Palm Beach addresses the components that directly affect cooling efficiency. Cleaning the blower and coil can measurably improve airflow and reduce the load on an older compressor. If your AC runs but the air feels weak or the house takes hours to cool down, the problem is often right there at the coil.
