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 Alpharetta, GA
Complete HVAC cleaning for Alpharetta homes typically runs $380-$680 for a standard two-zone system, with HVAC Cleaning and Air Quality & Sanitizing as the two services we deliver most often here. Alpharetta’s concentration of 1990s-2010s build homes with original flex duct, multi-zone systems, and heavy spring pollen loads creates a specific maintenance profile that differs from newer or older neighboring markets. Call (470) 516-9337 for a written estimate before any work begins.
Why Alpharetta Homes Are Different
Alpharetta’s growth along GA-400 produced a dense cluster of large single-family homes now hitting 20-35 years of age, most with original flex duct systems across multiple HVAC zones that have never been professionally cleaned. These homes, typically 3,000-5,500 square feet in master-planned communities like Windward, were built with flexible ductwork prone to sagging, kinking, and interior liner degradation.
The local climate compounds the problem. Georgia’s long cooling season keeps conditioned air cycling continuously through ductwork from May through September, creating moisture conditions where mold and mildew establish inside flex duct liners. Alpharetta’s preserved tree canopies produce some of the highest spring pollen counts in metro Atlanta, and return-air intakes pull those loads indoors during March through May, depositing layers year after year.
In summer, flex duct runs laid across unconditioned attic space routinely see surface temperatures above 140-150°F, accelerating degradation of the inner liner and causing it to shed fibrous particles into the airstream. Homeowners who assumed a 25-year-old home was “new enough” to skip maintenance are often surprised by what our cameras show.
Our Main Alpharetta Services
These are the three services Alpharetta homeowners schedule most often with CleanRun:
Air Duct Cleaning in Alpharetta
We clean the complete duct system in Alpharetta homes, including supply and return runs, registers, and the plenum, using negative-pressure extraction with Rotobrush and Nikro equipment. Every run is photographed before and after. The combination of aging flex duct and heavy pollen loads here means we regularly find significant debris accumulation at elbows and sag points. Air Duct Cleaning in Alpharetta
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Alpharetta
Dryer vent cleaning removes lint buildup from the transition duct through the exterior termination, inspected with a camera and cleaned with professional brushes and negative-pressure tools. In Alpharetta’s larger homes, longer vent runs through multi-story walls create more friction points where lint collects. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Alpharetta
Duct Repair & Sealing in Alpharetta
We repair disconnected runs, seal leaks with mastic and metal-backed tape, and replace degraded flex duct sections. Alpharetta’s original flex duct from the 1990s-2000s build era is now at the age where liner degradation and sag-related separations are common, particularly in attic runs across unconditioned space.

BeforeAfterHVAC Cleaning in Alpharetta
Complete HVAC Cleaning in Alpharetta addresses the full air-handling system, not just ductwork. The city’s concentration of 20-35 year old homes with multi-zone systems, combined with continuous summer operation and high pollen loads, creates conditions where evaporator coils clog with biological growth and blower assemblies accumulate fine debris that standard filter changes cannot reach. Our crews document every component with before-and-after photos.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Ice formation on the coil, reduced airflow from vents, or the system running longer to reach set temperature.
What it costs in Alpharetta
Evaporator coil cleaning typically runs $180-$320 as a standalone service, or $120-$220 when bundled with full HVAC cleaning.
How we do it
We access the coil through the plenum, apply foaming cleaner, rinse with low-pressure water, and verify fin integrity with a borescope camera.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Vibration noise from the air handler, uneven airflow between rooms, or dust puffing from registers when the system cycles on.
What it costs in Alpharetta
Blower assembly cleaning ranges $150-$280, depending on whether the motor requires removal for full access.
How we do it
We remove the blower assembly, clean the squirrel cage and housing with compressed air and solvent, balance the fan, and photograph reassembly.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Alpharetta
| Item | Typical range in Alpharetta |
|---|---|
| Full HVAC cleaning (2-zone system) | $380-$680 |
| Evaporator coil cleaning (standalone) | $180-$320 |
| Blower assembly cleaning | $150-$280 |
| Condenser cleaning (outdoor unit) | $120-$200 |
How do I know the HVAC cleaning was actually done?
Every component is photographed before and after, and those images are delivered as part of your job record. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires written pricing before work starts; Clause 4 requires the Documented Photo Record on every visit.
How often should HVAC cleaning be done in Alpharetta?
Every 3-5 years for typical homes, or every 2-3 years if you have heavy pollen sensitivity, pets, or visible debris at registers. Call (470) 516-9337 for a written assessment of your system.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Alpharetta
Air Quality & Sanitizing targets biological contamination inside Alpharetta’s aging flex duct systems, where Georgia’s humid cooling season creates moisture conditions for mold and bacteria growth. The combination of 20-35 year old duct liners, continuous summer operation, and heavy spring pollen deposits produces a specific contamination profile that surface cleaning cannot address. We apply EPA-registered treatments and can install permanent UV or air purifier solutions.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Musty odor when the system runs, visible discoloration at registers, or allergy symptoms that worsen indoors during cooling season.
What it costs in Alpharetta
Whole-system mold treatment ranges $280-$480, depending on contamination extent and duct accessibility.
How we do it
We apply an EPA-registered fungistatic treatment to all interior duct surfaces using a fogging system, with before-and-after swab documentation.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring mold after treatment, chronic allergy symptoms, or a system located in a damp basement or crawl space.
What it costs in Alpharetta
UV-C light installation at the coil or air handler runs $320-$580 including hardware and labor.
How we do it
We mount a Guardsman or Honeywell UV lamp at the coil or return plenum, wire to the blower circuit, and verify irradiance with a meter.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Alpharetta
| Item | Typical range in Alpharetta |
|---|---|
| Whole-system mold treatment | $280-$480 |
| Bacteria sanitizing (fogging) | $220-$380 |
| UV-C light installation | $320-$580 |
| Whole-home air purifier (Aprilaire) | $680-$1,200 |
Does mold treatment damage flex duct liners?
No. We use pH-neutral, EPA-registered solutions formulated for polymer duct liners, applied as a fine mist that saturates without pooling or dripping. The Documented Photo Record shows coverage on every surface.
How long does UV light installation take?
Most installations finish in 2-3 hours, including electrical connection and testing. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers all UV hardware and installation labor. Call (470) 516-9337 for a written price.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Alpharetta
Most Alpharetta master-planned communities require 24-48 hour notice for any service vehicle entry, and some Windward-area associations restrict truck parking to designated loading zones. We handle HOA notification when you provide contact details, and our uniformed, background-checked technicians carry Haven Standard Clause 3 identification for gate access.
Typical lead time is 3-5 business days, with flexibility for morning or afternoon windows. We do not promise same-day dispatch, duct cleaning is a scheduled job requiring proper equipment loadout and time allocation per system size.
Minor sealing and repair inside the conditioned envelope generally do not require permits in Alpharetta. If we encounter conditions requiring structural modification or new duct runs, we identify the need in your written estimate and coordinate permitting through the city before work proceeds.
