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 Sunset, FL
Air duct cleaning in Sunset, FL typically runs between $350 and $650 for a full single-system home, with dryer vent cleaning adding $90 to $180 depending on roof access and vent length. We’re Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, and what sets Sunset jobs apart is the specific mix of Everglades-adjacent particulate matter and aging 1950s through 1970s flex-duct systems that most local homes still run. If you live in Sunset and want a written price before anyone touches a grille, call (323) 918-4345.
Why Sunset Homes Are Different
Sunset sits on the western suburban edge of Miami-Dade County, closer to the Tamiami Trail and the Everglades than most people realize until the dry-season burns start. From roughly November through May, Florida’s prescribed burns push fine smoke particles and biomass ash east into residential neighborhoods, and Sunset catches that particulate load more directly than communities several miles closer to the coast. The result shows up inside return-air grilles as a grayish-tan residue that homeowners often mistake for ordinary dust. It isn’t. It’s biomass smoke signature, and it clogs filters and coats duct interiors faster than typical household debris.
Layered on top of that is the housing stock itself. Sunset is dominated by 1950s through 1970s concrete block and stucco ranch homes, many still running original or early-replacement flex duct routed through unconditioned attic spaces. In July and August those attics routinely exceed 140°F, and that kind of sustained heat breaks down duct liner adhesives and accelerates insulation degradation. A meaningful share of Sunset’s 1980s and 1990s infill homes are now at or past the 15-to-20-year mark where mold colonization inside ducts becomes common. Between the burn-season ash and the subtropical humidity, Sunset ductwork simply accumulates organic debris and microbial growth faster than it would in drier or more coastal parts of South Florida.
Our Main Sunset Services
Sunset homeowners call us most often about two things: the ductwork that moves conditioned air through the house, and the dryer vent that carries lint and moisture out of it. Both are covered here with their own dedicated Sunset pages.
Air Duct Cleaning in Sunset
A full Air Duct Cleaning in Sunset involves every return and supply register, the main trunk lines, the branch runs, and the interior of the air handler. In Sunset specifically, we spend extra time on the return side, because that’s where the burn-season ash enters first and where the gray-tan residue tends to collect heaviest. We use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment sized for 1950s ranch homes with tight attic access, and we work around your schedule, including nap hours for the kids. Floors get shoe covers and drop cloths before the first tool comes off the van.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Sunset
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Sunset means clearing the full vent run from the dryer connection to the exterior exhaust point, whether that terminates through the wall or up through a tile roof. Sunset’s older CBS homes often have long, low-slope runs or roof terminations that make access awkward, and lint mixed with subtropical humidity compacts quickly in those conditions. We inspect the run for sagging sections and poor connections while we clean, and we photograph the finished result before we leave. If your dryer has been taking longer to finish a load, that’s usually the first sign the vent needs attention.

What pushes a Sunset quote toward the upper end is usually one of three things: a roof-terminated dryer vent, heavy burn-season ash buildup on the return side, or flex duct that’s sagging and needs repair rather than just cleaning. Whatever the total, you get the number in writing before any work starts. That’s the rule, on every visit, no exceptions.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Sunset
Most Sunset appointments are scheduled within three to five business days of your call. If you’re timing the job around the Everglades burn season, calling in October or early November gives you the most flexibility. We’ll give you a specific date and time window when you book, not a vague “sometime next week.”
Most Sunset HOAs have no specific rules about duct or dryer vent cleaning, since both are inside the home or at the roofline. If your dryer vent terminates through the roof, we use the existing penetration and don’t alter any exterior appearance. We handle the work without leaving any sign we were there except cleaner air and a photo of the finished job.
That fine gray-tan ash compacts on top of the existing dust layer inside your return ducts, and it doesn’t just sit there harmlessly. It loads up your HVAC filter faster, reduces airflow, and gives mold spores a finer organic substrate to settle into. Sunset homes close to the burn-zone buffer see this effect most heavily. A fall cleaning, right before the dry season peaks, gets you ahead of the worst of it. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate, and we’ll quote you a written price before anything gets scheduled.

What Sunset Customers Say
"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."
- Omar Zaid"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."
