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.

We’ve been cleaning ducts in West Palm Beach long enough to know the local patterns: the fall rush when snowbirds flip thermostats back on, the 150°F+ attic temperatures that cook flex duct in older CBS homes, and the salt-laden air off the Intracoastal that pits bare metal surfaces. Our Air Duct Cleaning team treats every house like someone lives there, because someone does. Shoe covers and drop cloths from the front door in. Quiet tools during nap hours.

Why Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is West Palm Beach’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
West Palm Beach homeowners call us back because we explain what we’ll find before we open the first vent. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise means if something isn’t right after we leave, we make it right. Full stop. No runaround.
Scheduling runs from our Miami office, but the crews serving West Palm Beach know the local housing stock. They’ve crawled attics in El Cid where 1960s flex duct has sagged at the boots after decades of thermal cycling. They’ve worked 55+ communities where residents are home all day and notice every change in airflow and dust. They know not to bang tools during quiet hours, and they know which homes near the Intracoastal need closer inspection for salt corrosion on metal duct surfaces.
Every technician is background-checked, uniformed, and trained to the Cedarwell C.A.R.E. values. The written price you get before work starts is the price on the invoice. We’ve answered the phone with a live person 24/7 since 2005.
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in West Palm Beach
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in West Palm Beach means source-removal cleaning of your supply and return ductwork, register boots, and air handler components, using professional agitation tools under negative pressure with HEPA filtration. Most West Palm Beach homeowners need this every 3-5 years, though homes with year-round residents who are sensitive to dust, or properties that sat minimally conditioned through humid summers, may benefit from more frequent inspection. A typical residential job in West Palm Beach ranges from $350 for a compact condo system to $650 for a larger single-family home with multiple zones.
Supply and Return Duct Cleaning
We clean both sides of the loop. Supply ducts push conditioned air into your rooms; return ducts pull it back. In West Palm Beach’s older neighborhoods, we often find return ducts drawing from boots that have separated from the ceiling, sucking attic air straight into the system. Our Rotobrush agitation tools loosen debris from duct walls while negative-pressure collection prevents it from entering your living space.
Full System Cleaning with Video Inspection
After mechanical cleaning, we camera-inspect key junctions and the air handler itself. This catches collapsed flex runs, disconnected boots, and blower motor debris that brushing alone won’t address. For snowbird families reactivating systems in October, this step separates a proper job from a surface wipe that leaves problems brewing.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in West Palm Beach
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in West Palm Beach covers office buildings, medical clinics, retail spaces, and multi-unit properties from downtown Clematis Street corridors to the commercial strips along Okeechobee Boulevard. These systems run harder and longer than residential units, often with rooftop package units and extensive horizontal duct runs that accumulate construction debris and microbial growth in South Florida’s humidity. Commercial jobs in West Palm Beach typically start around $800 for smaller retail systems and scale based on square footage, duct complexity, and access requirements.
Scheduled Maintenance Programs
West Palm Beach businesses can set recurring cleanings that align with their HVAC service calendar. We work after hours and weekends to avoid disrupting operations. Every visit includes the same written upfront pricing and photo documentation as our residential jobs.
Post-Construction and Renovation Cleaning
New builds and remodels in West Palm Beach’s growing western corridors often leave drywall dust, insulation fragments, and debris in ductwork before occupancy. We clean these systems before the first tenant moves in, with full camera documentation for property managers and owners.
Trusted Brands We Service in West Palm Beach
Our trucks carry professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies, not rental-shop vacuums with brush attachments. Rotobrush’s powered cable-and-brush systems agitate debris from duct walls without damaging aging flex liner. Nikro’s negative-air machines maintain containment pressure so nothing escapes into your home during cleaning. Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration captures particles down to 0.3 microns. We stock common boot clamps, insulation sleeves, and register hardware so most repairs don’t require a return trip. For West Palm Beach homeowners with original ductwork in historic neighborhoods, this matters. A collapsed run in Flamingo Park shouldn’t wait two weeks for a part.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in West Palm Beach Homes
- Fall reactivation contamination. Snowbird homes sit through summer with minimal conditioning, letting humidity climb past 80% in ductwork. When owners return in October and crank the system, months of microbial growth and settled debris blast through the house. We see this spike every year, and it’s why we book heavily through late October and November.
- Collapsed flex duct in older neighborhoods. The 1950s-1970s CBS homes in Flamingo Park, El Cid, and Northwood carry original or early-replacement flexible duct through attics that exceed 150°F in July and August. After decades of thermal cycling, liner adhesive fails, ducts sag at boots, and sections pull completely free. Cleaning reveals the problem. Camera inspection confirms it. Re-securing and re-insulating fixes it.
- Salt corrosion near the Intracoastal. Coastal air carries chlorides that pit bare galvanized steel duct surfaces and accelerate degradation of fiberglass liner. Homes east of Flagler Drive and near the Lake Worth Lagoon show this more than inland properties. We inspect metal condition and recommend replacement when cleaning won’t restore integrity.
- Humidity-driven microbial return. Crews that clean without addressing the moisture source leave mold ready to regrow. Our jobs include assessment of condensate drainage, duct sealing, and whether the home’s dehumidification strategy matches South Florida’s reality. A clean duct with a humid attic is a temporary fix.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in West Palm Beach, FL
Most West Palm Beach homeowners pay between $350 and $650 for a complete residential duct cleaning, depending on system size, accessibility, and whether we find collapsed runs or disconnected boots that need repair. Commercial systems start around $800 and scale with square footage and duct complexity. We don’t quote per-vent pricing, and we don’t bait you with a low teaser that balloons once we’re in your driveway. One flat price per system, agreed in writing before any work starts. Every time.
Factors that affect your specific price: the number of HVAC zones, whether your home has hard duct or flexible duct (flex takes longer to clean properly), attic access conditions, and whether camera inspection reveals separations or damage that need repair. We explain everything we find, show you the camera footage, and let you decide before we proceed beyond the agreed scope. Estimates are free. Call (323) 918-4345 to schedule.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in West Palm Beach
Clean them before you arrive, ideally in late September or early October before you restart the system. Ducts that sat minimally conditioned through a humid West Palm Beach summer harbor mold spores and debris that will circulate through your entire house the moment the blower engages. We book heavily in this window and recommend scheduling early. Call (323) 918-4345 to reserve a fall slot.
Yes. Salt-laden coastal air corrodes bare metal duct surfaces and degrades fiberglass liner adhesive faster than inland South Florida climates. Homes east of Flagler Drive and near the Lake Worth Lagoon show pitting and liner separation more frequently. We inspect for this during every cleaning and recommend replacement when metal integrity is compromised. Call (323) 918-4345 for an assessment of your specific location.
Cleaning alone cannot restore a collapsed or separated flex duct run. We regularly find this exact condition in Flamingo Park and El Cid homes where decades of 150°F+ attic cycling have caused liner failure and boot separation. Our process includes camera inspection to identify collapses, then re-securing and re-insulating the connection as part of the job scope. The cleaning addresses debris; the repair restores airflow. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll assess what your system needs.
You should expect reduced airborne particulate, more consistent airflow from registers, and less dust resettling on surfaces within days of the job. For year-round West Palm Beach residents who are home all day, we use quieter Rotobrush equipment during scheduled hours, HEPA containment to prevent cross-contamination, and pet-safe products where available. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers you if anything feels off after we leave. Call (323) 918-4345 to discuss scheduling that minimizes disruption.
Yes. We clean residential systems from condos in downtown West Palm Beach to single-family homes in the western suburbs, and commercial systems from medical offices to retail spaces along Okeechobee Boulevard. Every job gets the same written upfront price, background-checked uniformed technicians, and photo documentation before we leave. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate on your property type.
