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 Company in West Haven, CT
Air duct cleaning in West Haven runs between $390 and $690 for a typical single-system home, depending on home size, duct condition, and whether shoreline corrosion or Sandy-era contamination is present. West Haven jobs are different from inland Connecticut work: homes along Captain Thomas Boulevard and the beach streets carry salt-air corrosion and moisture loads that demand a closer inspection before any cleaning begins. Call (980) 447-2498 to get a written price before any work starts.
Why West Haven Homes Are Different
West Haven sits directly on Long Island Sound, and that shoreline position changes what we find inside ductwork. The post-WWII Cape Cods and ranch homes built through the 1950s and 1970s still hold original galvanized steel ductwork now 50 to 70 years old. Galvanized steel and salt air do not get along. We regularly find corrosion at the seams, pitting along the interior walls, and rust scale that sheds into the airflow. Homes a few miles inland in Orange or Woodbridge rarely show the same failure pattern.
The Savin Rock beach corridor adds another layer. Many seasonal cottages were converted to year-round residences over the past few decades. Those homes originally had no central HVAC, so duct systems were retrofitted later, often routed through uninsulated crawl spaces just inches above the water table. Persistent humidity and storm flooding, most notably Hurricane Sandy in 2012, left many of those systems moisture-saturated and biologically contaminated. Homeowners who pumped out basements but never had post-flood duct remediation done are still circulating that a decade later. We see fine silt and mold growth sealed inside duct liners on beach-side streets that inland systems never develop.
Our Main West Haven Services
West Haven homeowners call us most about two things: cleaning the ductwork that runs through their aging homes, and clearing dryer vents that coastal humidity makes clog faster than expected. Each service has its own West Haven page with local pricing and job details.
Air Duct Cleaning in West Haven
Whole-system duct cleaning in West Haven means more than running a vacuum through the registers. Older galvanized ducts hold corrosion scale, and beach-side homes hold humidity-driven mold inside the liner. We use negative-pressure extraction with professional-grade equipment from Nikro, pulling contaminants out rather than pushing them into the living space. Every job gets a written price before work begins. Air Duct Cleaning in West Haven
Dryer Vent Cleaning in West Haven
Dryer vents in West Haven clog faster because coastal humidity makes lint stickier and heavier. We clean the full vent run from dryer to exterior termination, including the lint trap bypass where the real restriction hides. For homes with long vertical rises common in Cape Cod builds, this is a safety issue as much as a performance one. Dryer Vent Cleaning in West Haven
Air Duct Repair in West Haven
Older galvanized ductwork eventually fails at the seams, and West Haven’s salt air accelerates that timeline. We repair and reseal duct runs, replace damaged sections, and correct retrofitted beach-cottage systems that were never engineered properly. Every repair comes with a written guarantee and a free second visit if the repair does not hold. Air Duct Repair in West Haven
