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 Medina, OH
Air duct cleaning in Medina, OH typically costs $450 – $900 for a whole-home job, depending on the number of furnaces, the age of the ductwork, and how long it’s been since the last cleaning. We’re Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Relay Home Co. family, and we handle the full picture across Medina: air ducts, HVAC components, and dryer vents. What makes Medina jobs stand out is the housing mix itself. You’ll find everything from 1950s ranches near the square to newer builds in developments off Weymouth Road, and each one holds dust, pet hair, and construction debris a little differently. Call (737) 727-2314 for a written quote before any work begins.
Why Medina Homes Are Different
Medina’s four distinct seasons, and the long stretch of forced-air heating from roughly October through April, keep furnace blowers working harder and pulling more airborne dust through duct runs than you’d see in a milder climate. Older homes near Medina’s historic square often have ductwork from the housing boom of the 1960s and 70s: galvanized steel in solid shape, but rarely sealed well at the joints. That means fine dust pulls into the system from basements and crawl spaces, not just from return-air grilles.
Newer neighborhoods like those around Lake Medina and south of Route 18 tend to have flexible ducting and tighter construction, which is a different job entirely. In those homes we often find construction dust from the build still sitting in supply runs years after move-in, plus dryer vents that exit through the roof rather than a side wall, making them much harder to clear properly. Medina’s lake effect snow also drives a longer dryer-vent season, especially in homes where vent runs are longer than the 25 feet most builders spec for a standard install.
Our Main Medina Services
Medina homeowners call us most for two things: air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning, with HVAC component cleaning close behind. Each service has its own Medina page so you can get full pricing and detail there. Here’s the short version.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Medina
Lint doesn’t just slow down drying time; in a Medina home with a long vent run it’s a fire risk. We run a Rotobrush through the full vent from dryer to exit point, then measure airflow before and after so you can see the difference. Roof-exit vents are common in this market and take longer, but our written price covers the work either way. Get the full breakdown on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Medina page.
Air Duct Cleaning in Medina
The core job: negative-pressure extraction with a Nikro HEPA vacuum pulling loosened debris straight into the machine, never back into your living room. We brush out supply and return runs, clean the main trunk lines, and finish by checking every register for airflow. Medina homes range from 8 to 20 duct runs, which is why we quote a flat whole-system price rather than per-vent pricing. Details are on the Air Duct Cleaning in Medina page.
HVAC Cleaning in Medina
Ducts carry air, but the blower wheel, evaporator coil, and plenum box actually move it. When those are coated in a fine layer of dust, airflow drops and your furnace works harder every season. We clean the blower assembly, coil, and drain pan with a combination of compressed air, agitation, and HEPA extraction, so your system isn’t just clean at the register, it’s clean at the source. See the full scope on our HVAC Cleaning in Medina page.
