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 West Hollywood Homes Need a Different Kind of HVAC Cleaning
West Hollywood, FL is one of the few South Florida communities where slab-on-grade ranch homes built between the 1950s and 1970s lack basements or crawlspaces, forcing all ductwork through unconditioned attics that routinely exceed 150°F. That thermal stress accelerates flex duct inner-liner collapse far faster than in neighboring cities with newer construction or different housing stock. We’ve cleaned systems in West Hollywood where the foil-backed flex had delaminated so badly that the inner liner was hanging in shreds inside the run, blocking airflow while the system ran nonstop. A generic cleaning won’t find that. A camera inspection will.
Because West Hollywood falls under Broward County jurisdiction rather than a municipal code, enforcement of duct maintenance standards follows county-level inspection schedules. Translation: many older homes here have never had a professional cleaning since installation. The ductwork in a 1960s ranch off Johnson Street or near Stirling Road has been quietly accumulating dust, pet dander, construction debris, and mold spores for five or six decades. That’s not a scare tactic. That’s what the camera shows us.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Is West Hollywood’s Preferred HVAC Cleaning Company
We’re independently owned and operated under the Haven Standard, established in 2013, with 52,000+ homes served since then. Every one of those jobs started with a written price before work began and ended with a documented photo record of every duct run. West Hollywood homeowners tell us that’s the difference maker. You don’t have to trust that the work was done. We show you the inside of every run, before and after, on camera.
Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before arrival. They operate under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. The equipment they bring includes Rotobrush and Abatement Technologies systems, brands you can look up independently. We don’t do shop-vac duct cleaning. Negative-pressure extraction, the method we use, pulls debris out of the system rather than pushing it around, and it’s the only approach that actually removes what’s stuck to the duct walls.
The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs every job in writing. If the work isn’t right, we make it right. That’s not a policy subject to manager approval. It’s a written guarantee on every West Hollywood job, including coil treatment, blower cleaning, and evaporator coil cleaning.
BeforeAfterOur HVAC Cleaning Services in West Hollywood
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
In West Hollywood’s 75%+ year-round humidity, the evaporator coil sits wet almost constantly. Dust that makes it past the filter sticks to that moisture and hardens into a biofilm that insulates the coil and chokes heat exchange. A typical evaporator coil cleaning in West Hollywood runs $120-$240, depending on whether we can access the coil in place or need to pull the panel and treat it directly. We photograph the coil before and after. If it was fouled, you’ll see it.
Air Handler Cleaning
The air handler in a West Hollywood ranch is usually a closet unit or garage-mounted system pulling return air from the living space. When return ducts are unsealed or the filter hasn’t been changed, the blower wheel and cabinet interior collect a gray paste of dust and humidity-fed microbial growth. Air handler cleaning, including the blower wheel, blower housing, and cabinet interior, runs $150-$290 in West Hollywood. This is where the musty smell usually comes from.
Blower Cleaning
A fouled blower wheel moves less air, which means rooms farther from the handler starve. In a 1,400-square-foot West Hollywood ranch, that’s the back bedroom that’s always five degrees warmer. Blower cleaning as a standalone service runs $100-$180, but we typically fold it into a full system cleaning since the blower has to come out anyway. We use a Nikro blower puller when clearance is tight in those 1950s closet air handler installations.
Condenser Cleaning
The outdoor condenser in West Hollywood fights a different enemy: landscaping debris, grass clippings, and the fine gray dust that blows off Federal Highway and Stirling Road corridors. When the condenser coil is blocked, head pressure climbs and the compressor works harder than it should. Condenser coil cleaning runs $90-$160 in West Hollywood. We brush, then flush with a coil-safe cleaner and rinse at low pressure so fins don’t bend. Coil treatment after cleaning helps delay re-fouling in this climate.

Trusted Brands We Service in West Hollywood

No second dispatch fee.
Common HVAC Cleaning Problems We See in West Hollywood Homes
- Attic flex duct inner-liner delamination: Repeated 150°F+ summer heat cycles cause the inner liner of older flex duct to separate from the insulation layer. The liner collapses inward, airflow drops, and damp insulation fibers can enter the living space. We find this constantly in 1950s-1970s West Hollywood ranch homes. Camera inspection is the only reliable way to identify it without cutting into the ceiling.
- Condensate pan and coil biofilm from year-round humidity: South Florida’s 75%+ average relative humidity means the coil never really dries out. Unsealed return ducts pull warm, wet attic air across the coil, feeding microbial growth upstream. We treat the pan, clean the coil, and recommend sealing the return side so the problem doesn’t recur in six months.
- Rodent and gecko intrusion through duct-board seams: Original 1950s duct board in West Hollywood unconditioned attics develops gaps at the seams. Rodents and geckos get in, leave nesting debris and urine odors, and die inside the runs. Cleaning removes the debris, but without sealing the seams afterward, the problem returns. We photograph every access point we find and note it in your job record.
- Crushed or kinked flex runs starving distant rooms: On a 1960s ranch off Johnson Street, our crew found a 14-foot supply run that had kinked at the plenum takeoff and torn along its foil-backing seam. The dead zone trapped a decade of pet dander and fiberglass insulation fragments while starving two bedrooms of airflow. We camera-inspected the full run with our Rotobrush system, cut out the collapsed section, rebuilt it with new R-8 flex, and sealed all connections with mastic to restore balanced supply and return duct pressure. That’s the difference between cleaning a duct and fixing the system.

FAQs - HVAC Cleaning in West Hollywood
Because the original ductwork in West Hollywood’s slab-on-grade ranches runs entirely through unconditioned attics with no sealed return path, pulling hot, damp attic air across the coil every time the system cycles. Newer Davie construction typically has tighter ductwork, higher-efficiency filtration, and better sealed returns. A West Hollywood coil can develop biofilm in a single rainy season. After cleaning, we recommend a Guardsman coil treatment to extend the interval between cleanings, and we photograph the coil so you can see the difference. Call (806) 606-6902 to schedule.
Source removal means extracting debris from inside the duct run itself, not just brushing what’s reachable from the register. On a West Hollywood ranch, that means working from the plenum and each register with a negative-pressure extraction system that pulls debris to the vacuum while our Rotobrush agitates the duct walls. Because there’s no basement, every access point is in the attic or through ceiling registers. We photograph inside every run before and after, so you see exactly what was removed. The photo record is yours to keep.
No. If the foil-backed flex duct’s inner liner has delaminated or collapsed, cleaning it won’t help, and in some cases the agitation will make things worse by dislodging damp, mold-saturated insulation. On West Hollywood ranches with original 1950s-70s flex, camera inspection identifies liner failure before we start. If a section has failed, we quote replacement with new R-8 flex and mastic-sealed connections as a separate written line item. You’ll see the damaged section on camera before you decide. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll schedule an inspection.
Cleaning removes the mold that’s there. Prevention requires addressing why it grew. In West Hollywood’s year-round 75%+ humidity, the answer is almost always unsealed return ducting pulling moisture-laden attic air into the system. We clean the air handler components with antimicrobial treatments, then camera-inspect the return side for gaps and seal them with mastic. We also check the condensate drain line and pan slope, because standing water in the pan is a mold incubator. The combination of cleaning, sealing, and drainage correction is what stops recurrence.
Because the problem isn’t the AC unit. It’s the ductwork feeding that room. In West Hollywood’s post-WWII ranch homes, we frequently find that a flex run has kinked at the takeoff, torn along its seam, or collapsed entirely in the attic. The room at the end of that run starves for air no matter how powerful the new system is. Our documented photo record shows you the exact failure, and the repair is quoted in writing before work starts. If you’re tired of living with a hot back bedroom, call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll find the actual problem.
