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.
Trusted Air Duct Cleaning for Boca Raton Homeowners
If your vents are pushing out dust, musty odors, or that faint smell of old construction, the problem usually starts deeper than the register you can see. Boca Raton homes run their air systems hard most of the year, and a Florida house that stays closed up with the AC on recirculates the same debris through the same ductwork month after month. Our technicians have up to 8 years of experience and use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to physically agitate and extract what’s built up inside the system, not just vacuum at the surface. We’re licensed and insured, we set one flat price per system before work starts, and we can often get you scheduled same-day. Call (888) 894-0255 to book an estimate.
Air Duct Cleaning Services
Air Duct Cleaning Services cover the full run of supply and return ductwork connected to your air handler, from the trunk lines to the branch runs feeding each room. You need this when you’re seeing dust settle faster than usual, when a recent move-in left you unsure what the previous owners’ system has been through, or when allergy season hits harder indoors than out. Ashton Air Duct Cleaning cleans the whole system rather than spot-treating one vent, using Rotobrush and Nikro tools that agitate debris loose before extraction. Whole-home cleaning typically runs $350 to $700 depending on square footage and how many runs your system has. We also handle air duct repair when cleaning turns up torn or disconnected sections.
Source Removal and Agitation
Source removal means getting the debris out of the system instead of blowing it back into the room. We agitate each run with a rotary brush and follow with negative-pressure extraction so loosened material leaves the duct and doesn’t settle downstream.
Supply and Return Coverage
Return ducts often carry heavier buildup than supply runs because they pull air from the whole house, including floor-level dust and pet hair. We treat both sides of the system so the air handler isn’t pulling from a dirty return and pushing into clean supply lines.

HVAC Duct Cleaning
HVAC Duct Cleaning addresses the ductwork as part of the whole heating and cooling system, which means looking at how the air handler, coil, and duct runs interact. It’s the right call when you’ve had HVAC work done and debris from the install got left behind, or when the system has been running with a neglected filter and the coil side looks worse than the vents. Ashton Air Duct Cleaning works alongside equipment from Honeywell and Aprilaire and knows where those components collect buildup. Pricing for HVAC-focused cleaning runs $400 to $750 for most Boca Raton homes, and the written estimate sets the final number.
Air Handler and Coil Access
Dust that passes a cheap filter lands on the coil and the blower wheel, and from there it feeds back into the supply side. We check that area as part of the job so cleaning isn’t limited to the ducts and the coil isn’t recontaminating what we just cleaned.
Filtration and Air Quality Equipment
Homes with whole-home filtration or media cabinets need the ducts cleaned with that equipment in mind. We service and work around Honeywell and Aprilaire filtration components rather than treating them as an obstacle.
Vent Cleaning
Vent Cleaning focuses on the individual registers and branch runs that deliver air to each room, which is where most homeowners first notice a problem. If one bedroom always smells stale, or a vent blows visible dust when the system kicks on, those branch lines are usually holding debris that the main trunk doesn’t. Ashton Air Duct Cleaning cleans each run individually with Rotobrush equipment so every vent gets real attention rather than a single pass from the trunk. Vent cleaning as part of a full system job typically adds $50 to $150 to the base range, depending on the number of runs. For a broader overview of how we approach the whole job, see our Ashton Air Duct Cleaning page.
Register and Boot Cleaning
The boot, the angled fitting behind each register, is a common collection point because debris settles where the duct changes direction. We clean through the boot so the register cover isn’t hiding a pocket of buildup.
Room-by-Room Verification
Every vent gets checked after cleaning, and we document what came out with before-and-after photos of your own ducts. That’s how you know the work happened, not just that a truck showed up.
Ductwork Cleaning
Ductwork Cleaning goes after the full network of rigid and flex duct in the home, including runs that are hard to reach and joints that have worked loose over time. It matters most in older Boca Raton homes where ductwork has been added to or rerouted, and in any house where you’ve noticed a musty smell that doesn’t go away when the AC cycles off. Ashton Air Duct Cleaning uses Nikro and Rotobrush systems to clean flex and rigid duct without damaging the liner or the insulation jacket. Ductwork cleaning typically runs $450 to $800 depending on the layout and how accessible the runs are.
Flex Duct Handling
Flex duct is easier to damage than rigid pipe, and a torn liner becomes a permanent debris trap. We use equipment and technique suited to flex runs so cleaning doesn’t create a new problem in the process.
Seal and Joint Assessment
Loose joints leak conditioned air into attics and wall cavities, which wastes money and pulls dust in through the gaps. We flag those spots during cleaning so you know what needs repair before it becomes a bigger job.
Air Duct Inspection
Air Duct Inspection is a look inside the system before anyone quotes a cleaning, and it’s the step that keeps you from paying for work you don’t need. You want an inspection if you’re buying a home in Boca Raton, if a previous contractor’s work is in question, or if you’ve had water intrusion or pest activity anywhere near the ductwork. Ashton Air Duct Cleaning inspects with camera and visual access points, checks the air handler, and gives you a straight answer about what’s actually in there. Inspections are included with a cleaning estimate at no extra charge and typically run $75 to $150 if booked on their own.
Camera and Visual Access
A camera through the trunk and key branch runs shows the condition of the duct interior, not just the vent opening. We use what we see to decide where cleaning needs to focus and whether repair is warranted.
Findings You Can Use
You get an explanation of what’s in the system, what it means, and what the options are. If the ducts are in decent shape, we’ll tell you that instead of selling a cleaning you don’t need.
Residential Air Duct Cleaning
Residential Air Duct Cleaning is built around a single-family home’s system, from a one-story ranch to a two-story house with multiple zones. It’s the right service when you’re moving into a Boca Raton home and want a clean starting point, when pets or kids have made indoor air a real concern, or when the system has simply gone years without attention. Ashton Air Duct Cleaning uses Rotobrush and Nikro equipment sized for residential ductwork, and we set one flat price per system so you’re not charged per vent. Most residential jobs in Boca Raton land between $350 and $700, and the estimate you get in writing is the price you pay.
Homes With Pets and Allergies
Pet dander and pollen accumulate in return ducts faster than most people realize, especially in a house that stays sealed up. Cleaning removes the reservoir, and a better filter afterward helps keep it from rebuilding as fast.
Move-In and Pre-Listing Cleaning
Buying or selling a home is one of the most common reasons people call us. A documented cleaning gives a buyer confidence and gives a seller one less thing to negotiate.
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning covers offices, retail spaces, and small multi-tenant buildings where the HVAC system serves more people and runs longer hours than a house ever does. You need it when occupants complain about stale air or odors, when a tenant improvement or remodel left debris in the system, or when a landlord is preparing a space for a new tenant. Ashton Air Duct Cleaning handles commercial ductwork with the same Rotobrush and Nikro equipment and can work around occupied hours so business isn’t disrupted. Commercial pricing depends on system size and runs $700 to $1,500 or more for larger spaces, quoted per job.
Scheduling Around Occupancy
Commercial work gets planned so the system is back in service when people arrive. We coordinate timing with property managers rather than assuming the space can sit closed.
Documentation for Property Managers
Property managers get before-and-after documentation of the work, which is useful for tenant communication and for keeping maintenance records complete.
Brands We Service
We service and work alongside Honeywell equipment, including whole-home media filtration and the controls that tie into it. We know where those components collect debris and how to clean around them without disturbing the setup.
We also work with Aprilaire filtration and humidity equipment, and Abatement Technologies systems where abatement-level contaminant control is part of the picture. Whether you have Honeywell, Aprilaire, or any other make, we can help.

AfterSigns You Need a Pro Right Now
- Dust settles within a day of cleaning. If surfaces you just wiped are dusty again by tomorrow, the system is actively distributing debris. That’s a sign the reservoir is inside the ductwork, not on your furniture.
- A musty or stale smell when the air kicks on. Odor that appears only when the system runs usually means moisture or organic buildup somewhere in the duct or air handler. It won’t clear on its own.
- Visible debris blowing from a register. Particles coming out of a vent mean the duct is loaded enough that airflow is carrying material loose. That’s past the point where a filter change will solve it.
- Uneven airflow room to room. A run that barely moves air may be blocked, crushed, or disconnected. Cleaning alone won’t fix a broken run, which is where our air duct repair work comes in.
- Recent renovation or water intrusion. Drywall dust, sawdust, and moisture all end up in the ducts after a remodel or a leak. If either happened in the last year, an inspection is worth doing before the system spreads it further.
Our Process, Step by Step
- 1
Walkthrough and inspection. We look at the system layout, count the runs, and check the air handler before quoting. You get an honest read on what’s needed, and the flat price per system is agreed before any work starts.
- 2
Protect the space. Drop cloths and corner guards go down so cleaning doesn’t leave a mess behind. We treat your home the way we’d want ours treated.
- 3
Agitate and extract with Rotobrush and Nikro equipment. Each duct run gets mechanically brushed to break debris loose, then negative-pressure extraction pulls it out of the system. Suction alone doesn’t get what’s bonded to the duct walls, which is why the agitation step matters.
- 4
Clean the air handler and accessible components. We check the blower, coil access, and filtration housing so the system isn’t pulling clean air through a dirty component. Brand equipment like Honeywell or Aprilaire filtration gets handled with the manufacturer’s setup in mind.
- 5
Document and review. You get before-and-after photos of your own ducts and a rundown of anything we found that needs attention, including any duct repair needs. Then we’re out of your way.
How Much Does Air Duct Cleaning Cost in Boca Raton?
Air duct cleaning in Boca Raton typically runs $350 to $700 for a standard single-family home, depending on square footage, the number of runs, and whether repair work comes into it. That’s a whole-system price, not a per-vent number, and the written estimate sets the final figure.
A typical residential cleaning in Boca Raton runs $350 to $700 depending on system size and how many supply and return runs your home has. Ductwork cleaning that includes flex runs, tight attic access, or a larger two-story layout runs $450 to $800. HVAC-focused cleaning that includes air handler and coil access runs $400 to $750. Commercial work starts around $700 for a small space and climbs with square footage and system complexity.
What affects the price most: the number of duct runs, how accessible the system is, whether the ductwork is rigid or flex, and whether any sections need repair. A home with an easy attic layout and a clean air handler costs less than a house with a maze of flex runs and a disconnected supply line.
How to avoid overpaying: get a written, whole-system estimate, not a per-vent quote or a teaser coupon that grows once the technician is on site. Ask what’s included and whether the air handler and registers are part of the price. The estimate we give is free, we agree one flat price per system before work starts, and before-and-after photos of your own ducts are part of every job so you know what you paid for.

Frequently Asked Questions About Air Duct Cleaning in Boca Raton
Air duct cleaning is the process of removing built-up dust, debris, and contaminants from the supply and return ductwork connected to your HVAC system. It uses mechanical agitation and negative-pressure extraction, not just surface vacuuming, to clear the interior of the ducts and the air handler components. The goal is to eliminate the reservoir of material the system has been recirculating through your Boca Raton home.
Most residential jobs in Boca Raton take three to five hours depending on the size of the home and how many runs the system has. Commercial jobs and homes with complicated duct layouts can run longer. We’ll give you a realistic time estimate when we book, so you can plan your day.
