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 St. Petersburg, FL
Air duct cleaning in St. Petersburg, FL typically costs between $389 and $589 for a whole-home system, depending on home size, duct condition, and whether the system has been cleaned before. What makes St. Petersburg jobs different from almost anywhere else in Florida is the combination of salt air, near-constant humidity, and a housing stock full of 1920s bungalows with retrofit ductwork running through attics that bake at 140°F all summer. We’ll walk you through exactly what that means for your home, what you’ll pay, and how we protect your floors, furniture, and family while we work. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate.
Why St. Petersburg Homes Are Different
St. Petersburg sits on a peninsula with Tampa Bay on one side, the Gulf of Mexico on the other, and Boca Ciega Bay to the south. Your HVAC system pulls in salt-laden, humid air from multiple directions at once, which accelerates mold colonization inside ductwork and corrodes metal components faster than inland Florida cities like Orlando or even Tampa across the bay. Add in St. Petersburg’s dense inventory of pre-1960 housing and you get a specific set of problems we see almost nowhere else.
Homes in Historic Kenwood, Roser Park, and Old Southeast were mostly built before central air conditioning existed. Ductwork was retrofitted later, often routed along non-standard paths through unconditioned attics that routinely exceed 140°F in summer. That heat, combined with the peninsula’s persistent humidity, causes condensation that wicks through aging duct seams and feeds mold inside flex duct runs. In waterfront neighborhoods like Shore Acres and Coquina Key, built on fill land barely above sea level, salt air intrusion and groundwater moisture cause flex duct jackets to deteriorate from the outside in. We regularly find outer duct jackets that have essentially composted while the inner liner still holds its shape. The fix is not a generic cleaning – it’s knowing what St. Petersburg’s specific conditions do to ductwork and addressing it directly.
Our Main St. Petersburg Services
St. Petersburg homeowners call us most often about two things: cleaning the air ducts that move conditioned air through their homes, and clearing dryer vents that clog with lint and, in waterfront areas, salt-accelerated buildup. Here’s what each involves locally.
Air Duct Cleaning in St. Petersburg
In St. Petersburg’s climate, AC systems run 10 to 11 months a year, pulling particulate and biological growth into ductwork far faster than in seasonal climates. Our Air Duct Cleaning in St. Petersburg service removes that buildup using professional equipment from brands like Rotobrush and Nikro. We run our quieter tools during nap hours when you need it, use pet-safe product choices where available, and place shoe covers and drop cloths before any equipment comes through your door. In older homes with retrofit ductwork, we pay particular attention to seams and connections where St. Petersburg’s humidity does the most damage.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in St. Petersburg
Dryer vents in St. Petersburg clog faster than inland homes because salt-laden air causes lint to bind and cake along vent walls. For homes near the water in Venetian Isles or Old Southeast, that salt accelerates the problem year-round. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in St. Petersburg service clears the full vent run, not just the visible section behind the dryer. We use professional equipment and check the entire path, from the appliance to the exterior vent cap, so the system exhausts properly and safely. Every job finishes with a photo of the clean-up before the crew leaves.

The biggest price drivers in St. Petersburg are home age and water exposure. A 1920s bungalow in Historic Kenwood with retrofit ductwork routed through a hot attic takes longer to clean properly than a newer, straight-run system. Homes in Shore Acres or other low-lying waterfront neighborhoods often need outer jacket inspection and sometimes flex duct replacement, which adds to the job. Whatever the range, you get one written price for the whole system before any work starts. No per-vent pricing, no surprises on the invoice.

What St. Petersburg Customers Say
"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."
- Scott Hemmings"Friendly, calm crew that clearly cared about the house. Covered their shoes, protected the floors, and double checked they'd closed up every vent cover properly. Would have them back."
