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.

Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Is Edgewood’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Edgewood homeowners do not need another coupon company that sends a truck and a shop-vac. What this town needs is a company that understands what the Bush River does to a crawl-space duct system, and that can show you the difference before leaving. Our technicians have worked enough ranch homes off Pulaski Highway and around the Edgewood zip codes of 21040 and 21009 to know that the real problem is rarely the register you can see. It is the plenum above the air handler, and the flex runs snaking through wet crawl spaces, where humidity has been doing quiet work for decades.
Tomas Reyes, who leads our team, has made documentation the center of every job. Before we touch a register, you get a written scope. Before we leave, you get a photo record of the inside of every duct run, before and after. That is not a courtesy. It is our standard deliverable, and it is why Edgewood homeowners who have been burned by bait-and-switch pricing elsewhere call us back when they buy another home.
We coordinate dispatch and scheduling from our Baltimore office, and crews serve Edgewood locally. All technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before arrival. The work itself is backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise, which is written on every job, not just on a website. That promise matters when the job is in a 1960s ranch with original flex duct that has never been cleaned.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Edgewood
Residential Duct Cleaning
Most Edgewood homes fall squarely into the post-war through early-1970s era. The ductwork in these houses was often installed with galvanized steel trunks and low-grade flex branches. Over forty to sixty years, that means layers of construction dust, pet dander, and, in Edgewood, mold biofilm. Our residential cleaning is source removal, not surface wiping. We connect professional negative-pressure equipment at the plenum to pull debris from the entire system, then clean each branch run with rotating brushes. If a run is crushed or disconnected, we document it and quote the repair separately before touching it.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Edgewood has a mix of small commercial buildings around the Route 40 corridor and older office spaces near the Aberdeen Proving Ground perimeter. Commercial systems collect more than dust. They collect fiberglass insulation particles, gypsum dust from ceiling tiles, and years of recirculated air. We clean supply and return runs in offices, medical suites, and retail storefronts with the same documented standard we use in homes: a written price, a photo record, and a system that is actually clean at the plenum, not just at the visible grille.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts carry conditioned air from your furnace or air handler to each room. In Edgewood ranch homes, these runs often pass through crawl spaces where the Bush River humidity has been seeping in for decades. That means the air you breathe in your bedroom started in a wet crawl space. We clean each supply run back to the supply plenum and check every boot connection for moisture intrusion. If we find black mold inside a supply plenum, we say so, show you the photo, and quote a remediation-inclusive cleaning, not a repeat of the last guy’s brush-and-go.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to the filter. In older Edgewood homes, returns are frequently undersized, which means higher static pressure and more dust pulled through gaps in the duct wall. A return duct full of debris reduces airflow and forces your blower to work harder. We clean return runs with the same negative-pressure system and inspect for leakage. When a return duct is pulling crawl-space air through an unsealed joint, no amount of filter-changing fixes it. We can seal that joint during the same visit.
Full System Cleaning
A full system cleaning is the service most Edgewood homeowners actually need, and it includes every supply run, every return run, the supply plenum, the return drop, the air handler (if accessible), and the register boots. We recommend this for any home that has not had a documented cleaning in five or more years, or any home whose ducts have never been touched. The price is written before work begins, and the photo record at the end shows exactly what came out.
Video Inspection
Video inspection is the service that separates real duct cleaning from a noisy shop-vac. We run a camera through your ductwork before cleaning and again after. The footage shows us crushed flex runs, disconnected boots, rodent entry points, and moisture stains that a visual check at the register would never reveal. For Edgewood homes with original 1960s flex runs, this inspection is often the first time anyone has ever seen the inside of those ducts. You get the footage as part of your documented job record.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Edgewood
Most of the systems we work on in Edgewood are decades old, with original equipment from brands like Carrier, Trane, Rheem, and Lennox. The ductwork attached to those systems matters as much as the furnace itself. We run Air Duct Cleaning equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, and use HEPA filtration units from Abatement Technologies when mold or heavy debris is present. That equipment list is public because we want Edgewood customers to verify it independently before agreeing to a price. If you have a competitor’s written estimate, bring it to us. We put our number next to it in writing, free.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Edgewood Homes
- Mold inside the supply plenum. Edgewood’s position between the Bush River and its tidal tributaries means ambient humidity runs high from spring through fall. In crawl-space ranch homes, that moisture wicks into flex duct boot connections and condenses inside the supply plenum. Homeowners often smell it for years before anyone sees it.
- Crushed or disconnected flex runs. Original flex duct from the 1960s and 1970s was never built to last forever. In Edgewood’s low-lying lots, shifting soil and crawl-space moisture collapse or separate runs. The result is heated or cooled air dumping under the house while moldy crawl-space air gets pulled into the return.
- Shop-vac jobs that missed the trunk lines. We follow behind other companies in Edgewood more often than we would like. A shop-vac at the register cannot create negative pressure through the entire system. It pulls loose dust into the room and leaves the biofilm in the trunk line untouched. The customer sees clean-looking registers and still smells mold a month later.
- Return ducts pulling from the crawl space. Many Edgewood ranch homes have return drops that run through the foundation wall into the crawl space. When those joints are not sealed, the return pulls damp, mold-bearing air from under the house and circulates it through every room. Cleaning alone does not fix this. Sealing does.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Edgewood, MD
We do not do per-vent pricing. Never have. The whole system gets one written price, before any work starts, under Haven Standard Clause 1. In Edgewood, a single-family ranch under 2,000 square feet typically runs $385 to $520 for a full system cleaning. Larger two-story homes with two systems run $550 to $720. If we find mold in the supply plenum or trunk lines, the cleaning with HEPA remediation and antimicrobial treatment runs $650 to $950 depending on the number of affected runs. Crushed duct repair or boot sealing is quoted separately, in writing, with the photo evidence attached. A video inspection is included with every full system cleaning, not sold as an upsell. If you already have a written estimate from another company, we will put our number next to it, free, so you can compare the actual scope, not just the dollar figure.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Edgewood
Every three to five years is a reasonable interval for most Edgewood homes, but homes with crawl-space duct runs near the Bush River flood plain should be inspected every two to three years, because the high humidity accelerates mold growth inside ductwork faster than in inland Harford County towns. The real answer depends on what a video inspection shows. If your supply plenum has a visible biofilm layer, cleaning is overdue. Call (806) 606-6902 for a free estimate.
Black mold inside a supply plenum means the air your system pushes into every room is carrying mold spores, and that has been happening for however long the mold has been there. For people with asthma, allergies, or compromised immune systems, that is a direct respiratory irritant. For everyone else, it is a chronic low-grade exposure that explains stubborn coughs and musty smells. We show you the photo before we quote a cleaning. Call (806) 606-6902 for an estimate.
Yes. You do not need standing water to have a moisture problem. Edgewood’s humidity is high enough that flex duct boot connections in crawl spaces wick ground moisture upward and condense inside the duct walls. That condensation supports mold growth even when the crawl space floor looks dry. The video inspection shows it. Call (806) 606-6902 to schedule an inspection and get a written price.
Brushing out the vents without negative pressure knocks dust and mold spores loose and sends them into the room you are standing in. Negative pressure creates airflow that pulls loosened debris toward the collection unit outside, capturing it before it reaches your living space. HEPA filtration traps the microscopic particles that brushing alone releases. That is the difference between a cleaning that lasts and one that makes things worse. Call (806) 606-6902 for a price.
Expect to find one or more of these: crushed or collapsed runs where the inner liner has separated, disconnected boots where duct tape failed decades ago, visible mold at the boot connections, and a layer of fine dust and construction debris from the original build. In Edgewood, the crawl-space runs are usually the worst. The good news is all of it is fixable. The video inspection shows exactly what is there, and the written quote tells you exactly what it costs to fix. Call (806) 606-6902 to schedule.
