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 Medford, MA
Air duct cleaning in Medford, MA typically runs $450 – $800 for a standard single-family home, and a thorough clean of the full HVAC system usually lands between $600 and $1,000. Medford’s housing stock – a mix of pre-war Colonials, triple-deckers, and mid-century ranches – means duct systems are often decades old, and that changes how we approach the job. If you’re seeing dust re-coat surfaces days after wiping them, call (737) 727-2314 and we’ll give you a straight answer on what’s in your ducts before anyone walks through your door.
Why Medford Homes Are Different
Medford’s housing tells a story in layers, and most of those layers are old enough to have accrued serious buildup inside their ductwork. The triple-deckers along Riverside Avenue and the Colonials off Winthrop Street share a common trait: heating systems retrofitted over generations, with duct runs that were never designed for decades of continuous use. Add in the Mystic River’s humidity settling across Wellington and South Medford, and you get exactly the conditions where dust, pet dander, and moisture combine into a caked-on film that a basic vacuum can’t touch. Homes near Medford Square with radiators converted to forced air often have transitional ductwork – a patchwork of rectangular and round runs – where debris collects in the seams and corners. The result is a system that works harder than it should, pushing the same contaminated air through every room. We plan each Medford job around these older homes, not around a one-size-fits-all checklist.
Our Main Medford Services
Most Medford homeowners call us about one of three things: the dryer taking twice as long, the vents blowing visible dust, or a musty smell that won’t leave when the heat kicks on. Each service has its own Medford page where you’ll find local pricing and full details.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Medford
Medford’s older homes often route dryer vents through long, winding paths to reach an exterior wall – some run 15 feet or more. Every extra foot and every bend is a place lint can collect, and in Medford’s rental-heavy triple-deckers, vents frequently go unmaintained for years. We run a rotary brush down the full vent run and a HEPA vacuum at the termination point to pull everything out cleanly. This is a scheduled job, and you’ll know the written price before we begin.

Air Duct Cleaning in Medford
Supply and return ducts in Medford homes collect the same combination of skin cells, dust, and pet hair that leads to that gray film you see around vent registers. We use negative-pressure extraction with a Rotobrush agitation system, meaning the loosened debris goes straight into the vacuum instead of back into your living room. Older flex-duct runs and original metal trunk lines each get treated appropriately. Air Duct Cleaning in Medford
HVAC Cleaning in Medford
The blower wheel, evaporator coil, and drain pan inside your Medford HVAC system get visibly dirty in about two to three years, and that buildup cuts airflow more than most homeowners realize. We clean the coil with a professional-grade solution, pull the blower wheel for manual cleaning, and service the condensate drain so it stops harboring mold. A clean coil means the system reaches temperature faster, which matters when Medford winters settle in. HVAC Cleaning in Medford
