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 Clearwater, FL
Air duct cleaning in Clearwater means dealing with salt air, year-round humidity, and ductwork that rarely gets a break from the AC. Most homes here run cooling 10 to 11 months of the year, so what builds up inside ducts builds up fast. We’re Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and we service Clearwater homes with written pricing before any work starts, professional equipment, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every job. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate.
Why Clearwater Homes Are Different
Clearwater sits on a narrow Gulf Coast peninsula ringed by saltwater on three sides: the Gulf of Mexico, Clearwater Harbor, and Old Tampa Bay. That geography has a direct effect on ductwork. Salt-laden marine air deposits hygroscopic particles inside metal ducts, and those particles actively pull moisture from the air. The result is a duct system that stays damp longer and gives mold a running start, even in homes where the registers look clean. Add Clearwater’s brutal attic heat to that equation and you get flex duct liners that break down sooner than they would inland.
The housing stock compounds the issue. Much of Clearwater’s residential core dates to the 1950s through 1970s: concrete block ranch homes, many still running original or early-replacement flex duct through unventilated attics. On the barrier island and along the waterfront, aging condo buildings add another layer, with shared plenum systems that often go untouched between ownership changes. And Clearwater’s snowbird and vacation-rental population creates a pattern we see every year: properties sit vacant through the June-to-September humidity peak with AC set high or off, then owners return in October and November to systems that have been stagnant in prime mold conditions. A register face can look fine while the flex duct behind it is coated black.
Paul Adeyemi, our owner, has built Morton’s around the idea that Clearwater homeowners deserve a clear plan before anyone touches their system. That means a written price, a protected home, and a photo of the clean-up before our crew pulls out of the driveway.
Our Main Clearwater Services
Most Clearwater homeowners call us about two things: the air ducts that move conditioned air through the house, and the dryer vent that carries lint and moisture out. Each service has its own Clearwater page with full pricing and details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Clearwater
Clearwater’s salt air and year-round AC runtime mean duct interiors here collect more than dust. We use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to clean the full system: supply and return ducts, registers, plenums, and the air handler. In Clearwater’s older ranch homes and condo buildings, the flex duct in the attic is usually the worst offender, and we photograph the interior before and after so you can see exactly what changed. Pets, kids, and beach sand all end up in the ductwork, and our process is built around leaving the house cleaner than we found it. See the full breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Clearwater page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Clearwater
Beach towels, pet hair, and daily humidity make dryer vents in Clearwater collect lint faster than drier climates. A clogged dryer vent forces the dryer to work harder, takes longer to dry clothes, and creates a fire hazard that most homeowners don’t think about until it’s pointed out. We clean the full vent run, from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, with equipment from Guardsman and Abatement Technologies. Many Clearwater homes route dryer vents through walls or up through the roof, which makes professional extraction the right call. Details on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Clearwater page.

Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning Company in Clearwater, FL
Clearwater pricing is driven by system size, number of stories, and how long it’s been since the last cleaning. Here’s what we typically see in this market:
| Service | Typical range in Clearwater |
|---|---|
| Single-system air duct cleaning (up to 10 vents) | $350 - $500 |
| Single-system air duct cleaning (11-15 vents) | $500 - $700 |
| Single-system air duct cleaning (16-20 vents) | $700 - $900 |
| Larger homes / additional zones (per zone) | $150 - $300 |
| Condo or townhome air duct cleaning | $300 - $500 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (single run) | $99 - $175 |
| Dryer vent cleaning (roof or long run) | $150 - $250 |
| Air handler / coil cleaning | $150 - $275 |
| Blower motor cleaning | $100 - $150 |
| Registers and grilles (cleaned during service) | Included |
| Mold / microbial treatment (as needed) | $250 - $450 |
What pushes the price up in Clearwater is typically the attic: older ranch homes with original flex duct and long runs through sweltering attics take longer to clean properly. Condo buildings with shared plenum systems can also add complexity. Whatever the job, you’ll get a written price before any work starts, and that price won’t change when the crew arrives.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Clearwater
Most Clearwater jobs are scheduled within a few days, and we work around your calendar rather than asking you to block off a full day. October and November are our busiest months in Clearwater as seasonal owners return, so calling a week or two ahead during that stretch gets you the most flexibility.
For single-family homes, no. For condos on the beach and waterfront corridors, the answer depends on your building. Some associations require notice for any vendor work inside the unit, especially if access to shared mechanical space is needed. Most condos allow air duct cleaning freely; it helps to check your HOA’s vendor policy for access rules, but our team handles the paperwork side whenever a building requires it.

What Clearwater Customers Say
"Ducts and dryer vent both. They put runners down the whole hall and wore booties. Spotless after, and they showed me photos of what came out. Worth every penny."
- 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."
- Shelby Dunham"New house, old dusty ducts. They were gentle in the house, laid down drop cloths, and double checked every register was sealed back up. Air smells fresh now."
