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 Tustin, CA
Air duct cleaning in Tustin usually costs between $320 and $589 for a typical single-system home, depending on the housing vintage and the condition of the ductwork. Paul Adeyemi, who leads Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning, will tell you that Tustin jobs are unlike almost anywhere else in Orange County because the work splits so sharply along housing-era lines: pre-war galvanized duct in Old Town, aged flex duct in Tustin Ranch, and construction-dust-loaded systems in Tustin Legacy. We give every homeowner a written price before a single register is opened. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll walk you through what your specific house in Tustin needs, and what it will cost, before you commit to anything.
Why Tustin Homes Are Different
Tustin Ranch represents the dominant housing cohort in this city, built out almost entirely between 1987 and 1997. Those thousands of nearly identical homes all used the same era of flex ductwork installed in unconditioned attic spaces. The ducts are now 25 to 35 years old, baking through summers where attic temperatures routinely pass 140°F. We walk into Tustin Ranch attics and find the same failure pattern block after block: flexible duct that has kinked or partially collapsed at elbow joints, roof-rat activity in the mature tree canopy that has gnawed through insulation, and fiberglass shedding into the airstream. It is a cohort failure pattern that sets Tustin apart from older, more architecturally varied neighboring cities like Orange or Santa Ana.
Old Town Tustin is a different world entirely. Those pre-WWII Craftsman and bungalow homes often still run on original galvanized or early sheet-metal duct, rarely touched since installation. The work there is slower, more careful, and often focused on sealing and repair rather than a full clean alone. Then there is Tustin Legacy, the mid-2000s-onward builds on the former Marine Corps Air Station footprint. The duct systems are newer rigid or semi-rigid, but construction-phase dust from grading former industrial land often sits inside those systems from day one. Each of those three zones in Tustin requires a fundamentally different scope of work, which is why we never quote a Tustin job over the phone without understanding what part of town you are in.
Our Main Tustin Services
Most Tustin homeowners reach out to us for two things: the supply and return ducts that move heated and cooled air through the house, and the dryer vent that exhausts the laundry. Each has its own page for Tustin with local pricing and detail.
Air Duct Cleaning in Tustin
In a Tustin Ranch home with 30-year-old flex duct, an air duct clean often begins with finding collapsed or kinked runs and rodent-damaged insulation before the cleaning equipment even goes in. We protect floors with shoe covers and drop cloths, run HEPA-filtered equipment from Nikro or Rotobrush through every supply and return, and hand you a photo of the clean-up before we leave. Whether you are in a Craftsman bungalow or a Legacy build, you get one written price per system agreed before work starts. Full details are on the Air Duct Cleaning in Tustin page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Tustin
Tustin sits squarely in the Santa Ana wind corridor, which means fine particulates pour through the Tustin and Orange gap every fall and settle inside vent runs. Add the lint from a busy household with kids and pets, and dryer vents in Tustin build restriction faster than homeowners expect. We remove the lint from the full run, verify airflow at the exterior termination with professional equipment, and leave the laundry area as we found it, shoe covers and all. Read the specifics on the Dryer Vent Cleaning in Tustin page.

No. Air duct cleaning is interior work on your own HVAC system, and no Tustin HOA we have ever encountered requires approval for it. If your condenser unit sits in a shared space in Tustin Legacy, the interior work itself still needs no sign-off.

What Tustin Customers Say
"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."
- 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."
