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 Lisle, IL
HVAC cleaning in Lisle typically runs $350-$650 for a full system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. The combination of 30-50 year old ductwork and the extraordinary pollen load from the Morton Arboretum means Lisle systems collect debris faster than neighboring suburbs. Call (708) 683-3974 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Why Lisle Homes Are Different
Lisle’s housing stock was built largely between the late 1960s and early 1990s, which puts most original ductwork at 30-50 years old. Flex duct and sheet-metal trunk lines from that era were installed without accessible cleanouts, and plenum connections degrade predictably over decades. Many of these homes have never had professional duct cleaning, so first-service jobs often reveal heavy debris loads and deteriorated joints that need sealing.
The Morton Arboretum borders eastern Lisle neighborhoods along Route 53, and its 1,700 acres of woody plants generate exceptional pollen, cottonwood, and organic debris. Technicians working Arbor Avenue corridors regularly find filters blanketed within 2-3 weeks of installation in late May. DuPage County’s humid continental climate drives year-round HVAC use, and summer humidity raises condensation risk in poorly insulated crawl-space duct runs.
Our Main Lisle Services
These are the services Lisle homeowners request most often, with dedicated pages for full details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Lisle
We clean the full duct network, from return plenum to every register, using negative-pressure extraction with Rotobrush and Nikro equipment. In Lisle, first-time cleanings often remove decades of accumulated pollen and debris from the Arboretum zone. Every run is photographed before and after. Air Duct Cleaning in Lisle
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lisle
Dryer vent blockages are a leading cause of house fires. We clear the full vent run from appliance to termination, test airflow, and photograph the results. Lisle’s mature trees mean exterior vent hoods clog with lint and organic debris faster than in newer subdivisions. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lisle
Duct Repair & Sealing in Lisle
Aged ductwork in Lisle’s 1960s-1990s housing stock develops leaks at plenum connections and flex duct tears. We seal with mastic and metal-backed tape, then pressure-test to verify. Many Lisle jobs pair cleaning with sealing after the camera reveals gaps. Duct Repair & Sealing in Lisle

BeforeAfterHVAC Cleaning in Lisle
HVAC cleaning in Lisle addresses systems that run continuously through humid summers and long winters, cycling Arboretum pollen and dust through components that were never designed for this debris load. We clean evaporator coils, blowers, condensers, and air handlers using equipment from Abatement Technologies and Rotobrush, with a written price before any panel comes off. HVAC Cleaning details our full process.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Ice buildup on the coil, weak airflow from registers, or AC running constantly without cooling the home.
What it costs in Lisle
Evaporator coil cleaning in Lisle typically runs $180-$320.
How we do it
We access the coil through the plenum, apply foaming cleaner, rinse with low-pressure water, and photograph the before and after condition.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Vibration or noise from the air handler, uneven airflow between rooms, or dust puffing from registers at startup.
What it costs in Lisle
Blower cleaning in Lisle typically runs $150-$280.
How we do it
We remove the blower assembly, clean the wheel and housing with compressed air and solvent, balance the assembly, and reinstall with torque to spec.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Lisle
| Item | Typical range in Lisle |
|---|---|
| Evaporator coil cleaning | $180-$320 |
| Blower cleaning | $150-$280 |
| Full HVAC system cleaning | $350-$650 |
How often should HVAC cleaning happen in Lisle?
Every 3-5 years for most Lisle homes, but homes near the Arboretum may need coil and blower attention every 2-3 years due to pollen load. Call (708) 683-3974 and we’ll inspect and quote in writing.
Does HVAC cleaning help with summer humidity?
Clean coils transfer heat properly, so the system dehumidifies efficiently; dirty coils in Lisle’s muggy summers leave homes clammy even when the thermostat reads 72.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Lisle
Air quality and sanitizing in Lisle targets the mold, bacteria, and odors that thrive in 30-50 year old ductwork during humid summers, especially in crawl-space runs with poor insulation where condensation collects. We treat with EPA-registered products and install Honeywell and Aprilaire equipment, with every step documented in the photo record. Air Quality & Sanitizing covers our full methods.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Musty odor from registers, visible growth on vent covers, or family members with worsening allergies when the HVAC runs.
What it costs in Lisle
Mold treatment in Lisle typically runs $400-$800 depending on affected duct length.
How we do it
We apply antimicrobial fog through the duct network, treat the plenum and affected runs, and verify with post-treatment photos.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring mold despite cleaning, or a home with chronic moisture issues in the HVAC cabinet.
What it costs in Lisle
UV light installation in Lisle typically runs $300-$550 per unit.
How we do it
We mount a UV-C lamp in the supply plenum, wire to the blower circuit, and show the customer the installed position in the photo record.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Lisle
| Item | Typical range in Lisle |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment | $400-$800 |
| UV light installation | $300-$550 |
| Whole-system sanitizing | $250-$450 |
Is mold treatment safe for pets and kids?
We use EPA-registered, low-toxicity products that are safe for occupied homes; the system is flushed and tested before we leave.
How do I know the mold is actually gone?
Our photo record shows every treated run before and after, and Haven Standard Clause 1 requires the written scope to document what was found and what was treated.
