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 in Wellington, FL
Dryer vent cleaning in Wellington addresses a problem most homeowners don’t see until it’s serious: years of lint accumulation inside the vent pipe that connects your dryer to the outside. In Wellington’s climate, that lint absorbs humidity, cakes against the pipe walls, and turns a routine laundry load into a slow-drying, hot-running fire hazard. Our crews work throughout Wellington’s neighborhoods, and we document what we find with before-and-after photos of every vent run. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price before any work begins.
Why Wellington Homes Are Different
Wellington was developed primarily from the late 1970s through the 2000s as a master-planned community, which means most homes here have flex duct systems that are now 20 to 40 years old. Those ducts sit in attics that regularly exceed 140°F in summer. Flex duct liner breaks down under that kind of sustained heat, and once the liner goes, the duct starts shedding particles into the air you breathe while also leaking conditioned air into the attic. Humidity compounds the problem. Wellington’s relative humidity averages above 70% year-round, so condensation forms inside ductwork every time the AC cycles off. That moisture feeds mold inside the flex ducts and turns accumulated debris into a damp, organic mat. Homes in Paddock Park, Palm Beach Point, and Mallet Hill face a second, less obvious challenge: their proximity to the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center means airborne arena dust, hay chaff, and horse dander get pulled into return registers and distributed through the whole house. We see filters and duct interiors with a contamination signature you won’t find in Boca Raton or Royal Palm Beach: fine silica-based sand mixed with organic barn material. No other area in Palm Beach County deals with this exact seasonal load, which peaks from January through April during the Winter Equestrian Festival.
Our Main Wellington Services
Two services account for most of the calls we receive from Wellington homeowners, each with its own detailed page covering local conditions and pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Wellington
Full-system duct cleaning removes the accumulated debris inside your ductwork: arena dust, pet dander, construction particles, and the fine gray lint that finds its way past the filter. In Wellington’s older flex-duct homes, this is the single most direct way to stop particles from recirculating through bedrooms and living spaces. Every job includes a documented photo record of each duct run before and after, plus written pricing before a panel comes off. Full details on Air Duct Cleaning in Wellington.
HVAC Cleaning in Wellington
HVAC cleaning goes beyond the ducts to the evaporator coil, blower motor, and plenum. In Wellington’s humidity, the coil collects moisture continuously, and that moisture traps whatever is passing through the air handler. A fouled coil reduces system efficiency and sends musty air through the house. We clean and photograph the entire air handler as part of the documented record.

BeforeAfterDryer Vent Cleaning in Wellington
Dryer vent cleaning in Wellington removes the lint pack that builds up inside the vent pipe over years of laundry cycles. Homes here were built from the late 1970s through the 2000s, and many still use their original vent runs, often long or multi-elbowed paths from the laundry room to an exterior wall. In Wellington’s humidity, lint absorbs moisture and sticks to pipe walls instead of blowing through, so a vent that would stay functional in a dry climate becomes restricted here. Our written price covers the full vent run, and the photo record shows you exactly what we pulled out. Learn more about the full scope on our Dryer Vent Cleaning page.
Dryer Vent Inspection
Signs you need it
Clothes take more than one full cycle to dry, the dryer exterior gets hot to the touch, or you notice a burning smell while it runs.
What it costs in Wellington
A standalone camera inspection of the full vent run typically runs $85-$160 in Wellington.
How we do it
We send a push camera down the entire vent run from the dryer connection to the exterior termination and record the footage as part of your written report.
Vent Cleaning
Signs you need it
The dryer runs longer than it used to, the exterior vent flap never fully opens, or visible lint is collecting around the exterior hood between loads.
What it costs in Wellington
A full dryer vent cleaning in Wellington ranges from $120-$220 depending on vent length and number of elbows.
How we do it
We run a rotating brush and negative-pressure extraction from the exterior hood back to the dryer, then verify airflow with before-and-after photos.
Lint Removal
Signs you need it
You can see packed lint built up inside the vent opening behind the dryer, or the dryer has been used heavily for months without a vent cleaning.
What it costs in Wellington
Heavy lint removal for severely packed vents runs $150-$250 in Wellington, depending on the degree of restriction.
How we do it
We pull the packed lint in sections using a stiff-bristle auger, clear the elbows by hand, and photograph the difference at each stage.
Vent Rerouting
Signs you need it
Your current vent runs longer than 25 feet, makes more than two elbows, or terminates in a soffit or roof cap that traps humidity and lint.
What it costs in Wellington
Vent rerouting in Wellington ranges from $300-$650 depending on run length, wall penetrations, and accessibility.
How we do it
We map the shortest legal route to an exterior wall, replace the pipe with rigid metal venting, and seal every joint with foil tape before testing airflow.
Bird Guard Installation
Signs you need it
You hear scratching or chirping near the exterior vent hood, or you’ve found nesting material inside the vent opening.
What it costs in Wellington
Bird guard installation adds $45-$90 to the job when done alongside a vent cleaning in Wellington.
How we do it
We remove any nesting material, clean the vent, and install a metal guard over the exterior termination that blocks birds while allowing full airflow.
What Dryer Vent Cleaning Costs in Wellington
| Item | Typical range in Wellington |
|---|---|
| Camera inspection of vent run | $85-$160 |
| Full dryer vent cleaning | $120-$220 |
| Bird guard installation | $45-$90 |
How often should dryer vents be cleaned in Wellington?
Most Wellington homes need dryer vent cleaning every 12 to 18 months. The combination of long vent runs in older homes, high humidity that makes lint stick, and year-round AC operation that keeps laundry loads heavy through every season shortens the interval compared to drier climates. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll give you a written price before any work begins.
Why does my dryer vent clog faster in Wellington than it did up north?
Wellington’s humidity averages above 70% year-round, which means lint absorbs moisture instead of staying dry and blowing through the vent. That damp lint adheres to pipe walls, especially at elbows, and the clog builds faster than in drier regions. It’s a documented local pattern, not your dryer’s fault.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Wellington
Duct repair and sealing in Wellington targets the leaks, tears, and collapsed sections inside aging flex duct systems that were installed when most of this city was built, primarily from the late 1970s through the 2000s. In attics that hit 140°F in summer, flex duct liner breaks down, connections separate, and every leak sends conditioned air into the attic instead of your rooms. We seal what can be sealed, replace what can’t, and photograph each repair before closing up. Full service details are on our Duct Repair & Sealing page.
Duct Sealing
Signs you need it
Some rooms never reach the thermostat temperature, your electric bill climbs through summer, or you can feel weak airflow at registers far from the air handler.
What it costs in Wellington
Basic duct sealing at accessible connections runs $250-$450 per system in Wellington.
How we do it
We locate each leaking connection, apply mastic sealant or foil tape to every joint, and photograph the sealed connections before we leave.
Flex Duct Repair
Signs you need it
You see crushed or sagging flex duct in the attic, or a specific room suddenly lost airflow while the rest of the house stayed comfortable.
What it costs in Wellington
Flex duct repair or replacement runs $175-$400 per run depending on length, diameter, and attic accessibility in Wellington.
How we do it
We cut out the damaged section or run, install new R-8 insulated flex duct, secure it to the collars with proper fasteners, and seal everything with mastic.
Metal Duct Repair
Signs you need it
You hear metal-on-metal rattling when the system starts or stops, or visible rust and separation appear at metal duct seams in the attic.
What it costs in Wellington
Metal duct repair and reinforcement runs $300-$700 per section in Wellington depending on gauge and access.
How we do it
We repair or replace the damaged sheet metal section, reinforce separated seams with mechanical fasteners, and seal each connection with mastic before photographing the work.
Duct Insulation
Signs you need it
Condensation forms on the outside of ducts in the attic, or the attic-side duct surface feels cold to the touch while the AC runs.
What it costs in Wellington
Adding or replacing duct insulation in Wellington runs $2-$4 per linear foot depending on duct size and existing wrap condition.
How we do it
We wrap the duct with fiberglass insulation at the proper R-value for Florida attics, seal the vapor barrier seams, and secure the wrap at intervals so it cannot shift.
What Duct Repair & Sealing Costs in Wellington
| Item | Typical range in Wellington |
|---|---|
| Duct sealing at accessible connections | $250-$450 per system |
| Flex duct repair or replacement | $175-$400 per run |
| Metal duct repair | $300-$700 per section |
How do I know if my Wellington ducts are leaking?
The clearest signal is a temperature gap between rooms with the same thermostat setting, or a cooling bill that rises every summer while the AC runs longer. In Wellington’s attic heat, a leaking duct sends expensive conditioned air into a 140°F space. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written diagnosis.
Can flex ducts be repaired or do they always need replacement?
Small tears can be patched and sealed with mastic, but flex duct that has lost its liner integrity or collapsed usually needs replacement. In Wellington’s attic conditions, liner breakdown is the norm after 20 years. We’ll show you the photo evidence before any repair decision is made.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Wellington
Air quality and sanitizing in Wellington addresses the mold, bacteria, and odor problems that come from subtropical humidity and equestrian-particulate exposure. When humid air condenses inside flex ducts every time the AC cycles off, the resulting moisture feeds mold growth, and Wellington’s year-round humidity means that moisture never fully dries. We document the interior condition, treat what’s there, and show you the before-and-after. Full service details live on our Air Quality & Sanitizing page.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
You smell a persistent musty odor when the AC runs, or visible mold appears on registers, grilles, or the inside of duct openings.
What it costs in Wellington
Mold treatment for ducts and air handler surfaces runs $450-$850 per system in Wellington depending on severity.
How we do it
We apply an EPA-registered antimicrobial to affected duct surfaces and the air handler, then photograph the treated areas and provide a written record of the product used.
Odor Removal
Signs you need it
The house smells stale or musty when the air first turns on, or a specific odor returns within hours after cleaning.
What it costs in Wellington
Odor removal for duct systems runs $200-$450 per system in Wellington.
How we do it
We clean the duct interior first to remove the odor source, then apply a deodorizing treatment through the ductwork and photograph the process at each step.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Mold keeps returning on the evaporator coil despite cleaning, or someone in the home has chronic respiratory issues that worsen indoors.
What it costs in Wellington
UV light installation for the air handler or return plenum ranges from $350-$650 in Wellington depending on the system.
How we do it
We mount the UV lamp at the coil or plenum location where moisture and mold activity are worst, wire it to run with the blower, and verify operation before documenting the installation.
Air Purifier Install
Signs you need it
Household members experience allergy symptoms indoors, or you want to reduce the equestrian dust that rides in from outdoors during the winter season.
What it costs in Wellington
Whole-home air purifier installation runs $500-$1,200 in Wellington depending on the unit and integration required.
How we do it
We install the purifier into the existing ductwork or air handler, wire it, verify airflow, and photograph the final installation.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Wellington
| Item | Typical range in Wellington |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment for ducts and air handler | $450-$850 per system |
| Odor removal | $200-$450 per system |
| UV light installation | $350-$650 |
Does sanitizing actually kill mold in Wellington ducts?
EPA-registered antimicrobials kill surface mold on contact, but the moisture source must be controlled or mold returns. In Wellington’s humidity, that means sealing duct leaks and keeping the coil clean. We’ll show you the treated surfaces in the photo record. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written assessment.
Will UV lights work in Wellington’s humid attics?
UV lights target mold on the coil and surrounding surfaces, but they don’t remove moisture. They’re most effective in Wellington when paired with proper duct sealing and airflow. We install UV lamps where they have direct line-of-sight to the coil.
