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 Temple City, CA
Air duct cleaning in Temple City typically runs between $450 and $900 for a standard three-bedroom home, depending on how many returns and registers the system has and how long it’s been since the last cleaning. Temple City’s housing stock leans heavily on mid-century ranches built between the 1940s and 1970s, many with original ductwork that’s accumulated decades of San Gabriel Valley dust and, in some cases, construction debris from remodels. We’re the Temple City air duct team that shows up with a written price in hand and HEPA extraction equipment in the truck. Call us at (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate on any of our three Temple City services.
Why Temple City Homes Are Different
Temple City sits against a backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains, which means two things for your ductwork: dry, fine dust blows down from the foothills and settles into return registers, and older homes here run their HVAC systems harder during summer heat waves, pulling that dust deeper into the blower and coils. Many houses in the area were built with undersized return ducts by today’s standards, so a single neglected return grille can be choking airflow below the manufacturer’s recommended CFM. If you’re near Live Oak Park or along Sultana Avenue, you’re likely in one of the original tract-built sections where galvanized steel ducts from the 1960s are still in service and show their age with rust particulates. Homes near the Temple City High School corridor and along Las Tunas Drive often have add-on room extensions with flex duct runs that were never properly sealed, which introduces attic insulation and drywall dust into a system that should be carrying only conditioned air.
Humidity is rarely a factor here the way it is in coastal cities, but Santa Ana wind events push fine particulate through window seams and door thresholds, and much of it ends up in the air handler. That matters for anyone in Temple City dealing with allergies, because a return-side filter only catches what passes through it. A proper cleaning with HEPA vacuum extraction, the kind we run with our Nikro units, removes what’s already accumulated downstream of the filter and inside the plenum. We plan around that reality on every Temple City job, not around a generic checklist.
Our Main Temple City Services
The two things Temple City homeowners call us about most are dryer vents that have never been properly cleaned and whole-system air duct jobs that improve airflow and air quality throughout the house. Each service has its own dedicated Temple City page where you’ll find exact pricing, timelines, and what to expect.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Temple City
Dryer vent cleaning in Temple City is one of the fastest ways to improve both drying performance and household safety. Lint builds up inside the metal transition and long runs behind the wall, and in many of the older ranches here, that vent travels a long way from the laundry alcove to the exterior stucco wall, which means more surface area for clogs. If your dryer is taking two cycles to dry towels and you live near Serra High or along Rosemead Boulevard, the problem is more likely a packed vent than a failing dryer. We run professional rotary brush systems through the full run and confirm airflow with before-and-after readings. See Dryer Vent Cleaning in Temple City for pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Temple City
Full air duct cleaning in Temple City covers the return registers, supply registers, main trunk lines, and plenum on both the return and supply sides of your HVAC system. We use Rotobrush rotary agitation paired with Nikro HEPA extraction in negative pressure, which means the loosened debris gets pulled into a sealed filtration unit rather than blown into your living room. Temple City’s older galvanized ductwork responds well to this method, especially when there’s decades of dust caked onto the inner walls. For exact pricing and a step-by-step walkthrough of what happens on the day of your appointment, visit Air Duct Cleaning in Temple City.
HVAC Cleaning in Temple City
HVAC cleaning in Temple City goes beyond the ducts themselves and addresses the components that move and condition the air: the blower motor, evaporator coil, condenser if accessible, and the drain pan. In Temple City’s dry climate, coil fins collect a fine film of dust that reduces heat transfer and forces the system to run longer. That’s why a thorough coil cleaning, not just a duct pass, is what makes a measurable difference in your bill during August. We service all major brands with OEM-compatible tools and include a written guarantee on every repair we make during the service. Learn more on our HVAC Cleaning in Temple City page.

Two things tend to push a Temple City quote toward the upper end of these ranges: original mid-century ductwork with multiple add-on returns, and systems that haven’t been opened in a decade or more where coil access requires extra disassembly. Whatever the number is, you get it in writing before we touch a single register, and it does not change at the door. Call (737) 727-2314 for a firm quote on your home.

Very little. Have a clear path to the furnace or air handler, and make sure we can access the return grille. That’s it. If your HVAC closet is in a hallway with low clearance, you don’t need to move furniture; we carry floor protection and work around what’s there. We’ll walk you through everything else once we arrive.
Late spring through early fall is the busiest stretch in Temple City because the first genuinely hot week reminds everyone the AC is about to work hard. During that period, we recommend calling about one to two weeks ahead for a regular weekday appointment. Even in peak season, we can sometimes fit you in with fewer days’ notice, but the earlier you call, the more control you have over the slot you get.
