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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Royal Palm Beach
Air duct cleaning in Royal Palm Beach is not a luxury service here, it’s a response to the local climate. Homes in this village sit close enough to the Atlantic that salt-laden, humid air pushes average indoor relative humidity high enough year-round for microbial growth inside duct runs. That means supply and return ducts foul faster than they do in inland Wellington or Loxahatchee, just a few miles west. We’re Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Relay Home Co. family, and our crews work throughout Royal Palm Beach with professional equipment and a written price before any work starts. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate.
Why Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning Is Royal Palm Beach’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Royal Palm Beach homeowners call us because we answer the phone and we show up on schedule. Every job runs through The Relay Standard, which means you get a live trackable arrival window, before-and-after photo proof of the work, and a digital invoice you can pay from your phone. That’s not a perk. That’s how we operate on every booking.
A common thread in Royal Palm Beach reviews is that our techs treat the whole system, not just the visible registers. We run background-checked, uniformed technicians who carry Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro HEPA-rated vacuum extraction. You’ll know the technician’s name before they open the door. We also hold every job to the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if the work isn’t right within 365 days, we return and correct it at no charge.
Omar Haddad leads the team, and he’s built the crew with one rule: no fogging upsells. In this coastal climate, fogging a chemical mist into ducts without removing the source biofilm is a waste of money. We’ll tell you that flat, even if it costs us an add-on sale.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Royal Palm Beach
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Royal Palm Beach means working around the operating hours of medical offices on Royal Palm Beach Boulevard, retail spaces along State Road 7, and the municipal and school buildings that anchor the village center. We clean supply runs, return plenums, trunk lines, and air handler compartments using negative-pressure extraction: that means the loosened debris goes straight into the Nikro HEPA vacuum, not back into the occupied space.
Most commercial spaces in Royal Palm Beach run $600 to $2,200 depending on total square footage, number of rooftop units, and accessible duct length. We give a written price before any work starts. No surprises at the door. Public-facing businesses here, especially food service and medical tenants, need this done on a fixed schedule because the coastal humidity accelerates particulate buildup around the evaporator coil and the blower compartment.
Office and Medical Suite Systems
We schedule around patient hours and business peaks. The goal is source removal of accumulated dust, skin cells, and the light biofilm that coastal humidity promotes in commercial return ducts. We document everything with photos.
Retail and Restaurant Duct Runs
These jobs often involve kitchen exhaust adjacent to HVAC runs, building lint, and grease-laden dust. We clean without taking your space offline for the whole day. Written price upfront, after-hours work available.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Royal Palm Beach
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Royal Palm Beach include supply duct cleaning, return duct cleaning, and full system cleaning for single-family homes, townhomes, and villas in communities like Madison Green, La Mancha, and the Willows. A standard residential home in Royal Palm Beach runs $450 to $850. Larger homes with two air handlers or long trunk lines run $850 to $1,200. We also do video inspection before and after so you see the inside of your ducts, not just a receipt.
We run the Rotobrush rotary brush system down each supply run while the Nikro HEPA vacuum holds the line under negative pressure. This is source removal, not air washing. Loose dirt exits the duct. It does not recirculate into your living room off Crestwood Boulevard or anywhere else. If your air handler and blower motor compartment need cleaning, we quote that as a line item in the same written price, not as a surprise add-on later.
Video Inspection and Documentation
Every full system cleaning includes a camera inspection of the main return and supply trunk. You can see what is there before we start and what remains after. That’s the Relay Standard, and it applies in Royal Palm Beach the same way it does everywhere.
Air Handler and Blower Compartment Cleaning
In Royal Palm Beach, skipping the air handler is the most common half-job we see. The evaporator coil sits in the blower compartment where condensation never fully dries. That’s where microbial growth is thickest. We clean it. We quote it. We do not pretend it does not exist.

Trusted Brands We Service in Royal Palm Beach
We service and maintain residential and commercial systems built around Honeywell controls, Aprilaire filtration, and Guardsman filter housings. For the cleaning itself we run Rotobrush rotary brush systems, Nikro HEPA vacuums, and Abatement Technologies containment units. That matters in Royal Palm Beach because coastal homes here push filters harder and load them unevenly. We stock common Guardsman and Aprilaire filter sizes locally for Royal Palm Beach customers, so replacement is quick. We do not sell you a filter subscription. We tell you what size you need and keep it simple.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Royal Palm Beach Homes
- Biofilm in the main return trunk. Warm, humid coastal air from the Atlantic keeps indoor relative humidity high enough that galvanized duct walls never fully dry. We regularly see a film of microbial growth clinging to the metal in La Mancha and Madison Green homes, even when the homeowner runs a whole-house dehumidifier.
- Caked return filters from uneven loading. When the return side is clogged, the filter loads unevenly and the blower works harder. We see this most often in homes off Royal Palm Beach Boulevard where the return run pulls from a hot, humid garage or attic chase.
- Mold at the evaporator coil. Condensation that never dries becomes mold on the coil face. That smell comes through every supply register. Skipping the coil while cleaning ducts is how Royal Palm Beach homeowners end up calling a second company six months later.
- Gaps around registers letting humid air back in. We re-seal registers after cleaning. An unsealed register lets outdoor humid air migrate back into the supply run and undo the work in one season. This is a specific failure in the coastal-village envelope.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Royal Palm Beach
Royal Palm Beach sits close enough to the Atlantic that salt-laden, humid air keeps indoor relative humidity high enough year-round for microbial growth inside duct runs. Inland areas like Wellington or Loxahatchee have drier air and fewer salt aerosols, so their ducts stay cleaner longer. Coastal village homes here foul faster because the duct metal stays damp longer. Our process source-removes the growth instead of misting it. Call (737) 727-2314 for an exact quote, estimates are free.
Yes. We follow NADCA source-removal standards: negative-pressure extraction, agitation of the duct walls, and HEPA filtration on the vacuum output. We do not air-wash, and we do not fog sanitizer and call it cleaning. The standard matters in Royal Palm Beach because the local humidity rewards thoroughness. Anything less and the growth returns within a season. Estimates are free at (737) 727-2314.
No, not in Royal Palm Beach, and not on its own. Fogging mists a chemical into the ducts without removing the biofilm on the metal. In this coastal humidity, the growth returns within a season because the source was never removed. What works is a genuine source-removal clean: agitate the duct walls, extract the debris and biofilm under negative pressure, and clean the air handler. Ask for photos. If a company won’t show you the inside of your ducts, walk away. For an honest quote, call (737) 727-2314.
Every 3 to 5 years for most homes, but coastal homes in Royal Palm Beach, especially those near the village center or close to the Atlantic’s influence, often need attention at the 3-year mark. Homes with pets, recent renovations, or residents with allergies or asthma should lean toward 3 years. The best way to know is a video inspection, which is part of our full system cleaning. Call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll tell you if you even need it.
We clean the air handler and blower compartment as a separate line item, not as a hidden add-on after the fact. In Royal Palm Beach, the coil and blower compartment are where condensation collects and microbial growth is thickest. Cleaning ducts while skipping the air handler means the smell comes back through the supply registers in weeks. We quote it upfront, in writing. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate that includes the air handler.
