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 Hanover, OH
Air duct cleaning in Hanover, OH typically runs $400 – $700 for a standard whole-home system, and it’s a job worth taking seriously in this corner of Licking County. Hanover’s mix of older farmhouses, mid-century ranches, and newer builds means no two duct systems behave the same way. We’re Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, and we run Rotobrush rotary brush systems with Nikro HEPA extraction so the debris actually leaves your home instead of recirculating into it. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate with a written price before any work starts.
Why Hanover Homes Are Different
Hanover sits in a part of Ohio where seasonal swings hit hard: humid summers, cold winters, and the kind of valley air that settles in low spots and holds moisture. That matters because ductwork in unconditioned spaces – crawl spaces, attics, unheated basements – pulls that moisture in and turns ordinary dust into a caked-on layer that a standard shop-vac pass never removes. We see it in nearly every pre-1970s home in Hanover: return ducts lined with decades of pet dander, construction debris from past renovations, and sometimes the fine black dust from old coal or wood heating systems. Rotobrush agitation breaks that bonded layer loose, then negative-pressure extraction pulls it through a Nikro HEPA filter. That means the loosened debris goes straight into the vacuum, not back into your living room.
The housing stock here runs older than a lot of neighboring towns, and with that comes flex duct that’s begun to sag, return paths that were never properly sized, and registers painted shut through multiple repaints. None of that is a surprise to us. It just means Hanover jobs often need a bit more time and a technician who notices those things while the system is open.
Our Main Hanover Services
Most Hanover customers call us for one of two reasons: dryer vent cleaning after a scare or a full air duct cleaning when allergies or dust levels push past what they can live with. Our HVAC cleaning rounds out what we do, and each service has its own Hanover page with pricing and details.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Hanover
Dryer vent cleaning in Hanover is one of those jobs that sneaks up on people. Lint builds slowly, airflow drops, and clothes start taking two cycles to dry. In Hanover’s older homes, vent runs are often long, twisty, and run through unheated crawl spaces where moisture turns lint into something that clings to the pipe wall. We pull the lint out from the full run, not just the first foot behind the dryer, and we check the termination point outside – birds and small animals like Hanover’s rural lots, and an uncapped vent is an open door. See the full breakdown on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Hanover page.
Air Duct Cleaning in Hanover
Air duct cleaning in Hanover homes means dealing with whatever decades of Ohio living have left in the system: construction debris, pet hair, the fine dust that settles when gravel roads and farm fields are nearby. We run a Rotobrush rotary brush through every supply and return line, agitate the walls, and keep the entire system under negative pressure with a Nikro HEPA vacuum so nothing escapes into the home during the job. Older Hanover furnaces and flex-duct layouts respond well to this method – it’s thorough without being rough on aging components. Full pricing and what to expect are at Air Duct Cleaning in Hanover.
HVAC Cleaning in Hanover
HVAC cleaning in Hanover goes beyond ducts: the blower motor, evaporator coil, drain pan, and housing all collect the same dust and moisture that the ductwork does. A dirty coil doesn’t just smell – it forces the system to run longer to hit the same temperature, which shows up directly on Hanover’s heating bills in January and the AC bills in July. We clean the full air handling assembly, check the condensate line, and replace the filter with a quality option that fits the system. Details and pricing are on the HVAC Cleaning in Hanover page.

You’ll get a written price before a single duct is touched, and that number does not change at the door.
