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 Florida City, FL
Air duct cleaning in Florida City costs between $400 and $1,000 for a typical three-bedroom home, depending on system size and condition. What makes our work different here comes down to one event: Hurricane Andrew. Most of Florida City’s housing was rebuilt in the mid-1990s after the storm, and that ductwork is now aging out all at once. If you’re noticing dust on every surface or a musty smell through the vents, call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll walk you through what we’re seeing in Florida City homes right now.
Why Florida City Homes Are Different
Florida City sits at the edge of the Everglades, and that geography shapes every duct system in town. The tropical monsoon climate means air conditioning runs all year, so ducts never get a dry season to recover. Add the airborne mold spores and organic particulates blowing in from Everglades National Park and Florida Bay, and you get systems that accumulate biological growth faster than anywhere else in Miami-Dade County.
But there’s a second factor specific to this city. Hurricane Andrew flattened Florida City in August 1992, and what rose afterward was a wave of tract-built homes put up quickly between 1993 and 1996. Those homes used standard flex duct, and after 30 years of nonstop AC in extreme heat and humidity, that ductwork is sagging, degrading, or harboring visible mold colonies. In the residential blocks south and west of Krome Avenue, we routinely find original flex duct that has partially collapsed, with blackened interiors that tell a clear story. The whole neighborhood aged at the same rate because it was built in the same 18-month window. That’s not typical for South Florida, and it changes what we expect to find when we open a Florida City system.
What this means for you is practical: if your home was rebuilt in the mid-1990s and the ducts have never been inspected, they’re due. Not because of a maintenance schedule someone made up, but because identical homes on your street are hitting end-of-life at the same time.
Our Main Florida City Services
Two services cover nearly every call we receive from Florida City homeowners: whole-system air duct cleaning and dryer vent maintenance. Here’s what each looks like in this climate.
Air Duct Cleaning in Florida City
In Florida City, air duct cleaning means removing 30 years of accumulated dust, mold spores, and Everglades organic matter from supply and return lines. Our crews run professional-grade agitation and HEPA-filtered collection equipment, typically Rotobrush or Nikro, through the entire system while protecting your floors with drop cloths and shoe covers. The difference in Florida City is the humidity: systems here hold moisture longer, so we pay close attention to line-set insulation and any signs of biological growth. See how we approach the job in detail on our Air Duct Cleaning in Florida City page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Florida City
Dryer vents in Florida City homes clog faster than in drier climates, and the lint here often carries fine sand and organic dust from the surrounding agricultural land. We clear the full vent run, from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, using professional brushes and vacuum collection. If you’ve noticed clothes taking two cycles to dry, or the outdoor vent flap not opening fully, it’s worth a look. The details are on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Florida City page.

- Bonnie Vo"Spotless work. They laid drop cloths everywhere and I was honestly impressed there was zero mess at the end. Showed me the dirt they pulled out so I could see it was worth it."
