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 Sandy Springs, GA
Full-system HVAC cleaning in Sandy Springs typically runs $450-$850 for homes with multi-zone forced-air systems, with air quality and sanitizing treatments adding $200-$500 depending on contamination level. We’re CleanRun Duct Repair & Cleaning, and we dispatch crews to Sandy Springs from our Atlanta office to handle the specific challenges of this city’s aging executive housing stock: original flex ductwork baked in 130°F attics, decades of compacted pollen, and humidity-driven microbial growth that newer suburbs simply don’t face. Every job starts with a written price before any panel comes off, and every duct run is photographed before and after. Call (470) 516-9337 for a free estimate.
Why Sandy Springs Homes Are Different
Sandy Springs sits on some of the most densely packed executive housing in metro Atlanta, with large traditional and colonial-style homes - many 3,500-5,500 sq ft - built during the 1970s-1990s northern suburban boom. These properties run original fiberglass-lined flex ductwork through unconditioned attic spaces where Georgia summer heat routinely pushes temperatures past 130°F. That decades-long thermal stress degrades the flex duct liner material, releasing particulates into the air supply while the region’s high humidity promotes microbial growth inside the system.
The western edge along the Chattahoochee River corridor adds localized humidity influence, and Atlanta’s heavy spring pine pollen season loads return-air grilles with fine particulates that compact into duct lining over time. Along Riverside Drive and in older subdivisions off Hammond Drive, we regularly find aging flex duct joints that have separated from thermal cycling, drawing unconditioned attic air directly into living spaces. These homes are old enough to have never seen professional cleaning, and their sheer size means more linear feet of duct, more registers, and longer job times than typical metro Atlanta work.
Our Main Sandy Springs Services
Most Sandy Springs homeowners who call us need one of these three services. Each has its own dedicated Sandy Springs page with deeper detail.
Air Duct Cleaning in Sandy Springs
We clean the complete supply and return network in Sandy Springs homes, from the main trunk lines through every register, using negative-pressure extraction - a vacuum system that pulls debris out while agitation tools loosen it from duct walls. The camera often shows 2-3 inch debris build-ups at first elbows in these 40-year-old systems. Every run is photographed before and after, and the written price is set before work begins.

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Sandy Springs
Dryer vent blockages are common in Sandy Springs’s larger homes where vent runs extend 25-40 feet through multiple stories to exterior walls. We remove lint accumulation with rotary brushes and high-velocity air tools, then verify airflow with a manometer reading. The job includes a written price upfront and photo documentation of the vent interior. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Sandy Springs
Duct Repair & Sealing in Sandy Springs
Along Riverside Drive and Hammond Drive corridors, we regularly find separated flex duct joints and partial collapses from decades of thermal cycling. Our crews repair or replace damaged sections, seal connections with mastic and metal tape, and test static pressure to verify the system draws conditioned air only. Written price before work starts, photo record after. Duct Repair & Sealing in Sandy Springs

BeforeAfterHVAC Cleaning in Sandy Springs
HVAC cleaning in Sandy Springs addresses a specific problem set: multi-zone forced-air systems in 3,500-5,500 sq ft homes that have run continuously from April through October for decades without component-level cleaning. The evaporator coils, blowers, and condensers in these systems accumulate pollen, dust, and microbial growth that standard filter changes never reach, reducing airflow and forcing compressors to run longer. We clean the full mechanical system, not just the ducts, with documented photo records of each component. HVAC Cleaning covers our full methodology.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Ice formation on refrigerant lines, weak airflow from registers, or cooling that can’t keep up on 95°F Sandy Springs afternoons.
What it costs in Sandy Springs
Evaporator coil cleaning typically runs $180-$340 in Sandy Springs, with access difficulty in tight attic spaces pushing toward the higher end.
How we do it
We remove the coil assembly when accessible, apply foaming cleaner, rinse with low-pressure water, and photograph the fin condition before reassembly.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Vibration or noise from the air handler, uneven airflow between rooms, or dust streaking from supply registers.
What it costs in Sandy Springs
Blower motor and wheel cleaning ranges $150-$280 in Sandy Springs, with multi-speed variable blowers requiring additional disassembly time.
How we do it
We remove the blower assembly, clean the wheel blades and housing with compressed air and solvent, balance the wheel, and test amperage draw before reinstalling.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Sandy Springs
| Item | Typical range in Sandy Springs |
|---|---|
| Evaporator coil cleaning | $180-$340 |
| Blower cleaning | $150-$280 |
| Condenser cleaning | $120-$220 |
How do I know my HVAC components actually need cleaning?
We photograph every component before quoting - you’ll see the coil fin condition, blower wheel debris, or condenser fin blockage before deciding. No cleaning happens without your approval of the written price and scope.
Can HVAC cleaning reduce my summer electric bills in Sandy Springs?
Clean coils and blowers move air more efficiently, which can reduce compressor run time during Sandy Springs’s six-month cooling season. We measure static pressure before and after to document improvement. Call (470) 516-9337 for a free system inspection.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Sandy Springs
Air quality and sanitizing in Sandy Springs targets the microbial growth that humid subtropical conditions create inside 40-year-old ductwork, particularly in homes along the Chattahoochee corridor where river-influenced humidity keeps relative humidity elevated even when thermostats read comfortable. The combination of original fiberglass duct liner, 130°F attic temperatures, and continuous HVAC operation from April through October produces conditions where mold and bacteria colonize supply plenums and trunk lines. We treat these contaminants with application-specific methods, not generic fogging, and document every surface with before-and-after photography. Air Quality & Sanitizing details our full protocol.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Musty odor when the system cycles, visible discoloration at registers, or allergy symptoms that worsen when home.
What it costs in Sandy Springs
Whole-system mold treatment ranges $400-$750 in Sandy Springs, with extent of colonization and accessibility determining final scope.
How we do it
We apply EPA-registered antimicrobial directly to affected surfaces using controlled application tools, then HEPA-vacuum debris and verify with post-treatment surface sampling.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring microbial growth after cleaning, or a system in a damp crawlspace or basement with chronic moisture.
What it costs in Sandy Springs
UV-C light installation runs $300-$550 in Sandy Springs, including the lamp assembly, power supply, and mounting at the supply plenum.
How we do it
We mount a Honeywell or Aprilaire UV-C lamp at the coil and plenum intersection, wire to the air handler circuit, and verify irradiance levels with a meter.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Sandy Springs
| Item | Typical range in Sandy Springs |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment | $400-$750 |
| UV light installation | $300-$550 |
| Bacteria sanitizing | $250-$450 |
Is the antimicrobial treatment safe for my family and pets?
We use EPA-registered products applied only to interior duct surfaces, with a controlled dwell time and full ventilation before system restart. The written scope specifies exact products used.
How long does mold treatment take in a large Sandy Springs home?
Most 4,000+ sq ft Sandy Springs homes require a full day for complete mold treatment and verification, longer than standard cleaning due to extended flex duct runs. Call (470) 516-9337 for a written timeline with your estimate.
