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 Keene, TX
Air duct cleaning in Keene, TX runs between $310 and $795 for a whole-home system, with most homes landing in the $400 to $550 range. Keene jobs look different from work we do anywhere else in Johnson County because the city’s housing stock skews heavily toward mid-century university faculty homes, and that changed everything about what we find inside the ducts. If you’re calling about dust coming from your vents or a system that hasn’t been touched since it was installed, call (980) 447-2498 and we’ll give you an honest read before anyone schedules a visit.
Why Keene Homes Are Different
Keene is essentially built around Southwestern Adventist University, and the neighborhoods closest to campus are filled with ranch-style and modest two-story homes from the 1960s through the 1980s. Many of those houses still have their original sheet-metal ducts or early flex-duct runs, and a surprising number have never been professionally cleaned. Inside those systems we routinely find deteriorated duct liner shedding fibers, decades of settled dust, and return-air plenums loaded with fine grain dust that traces back to the wheat fields and hay operations on Keene’s south and west edges. That agricultural dust spikes noticeably after dry, windy spring harvest periods, and it works its way into return-air systems through separated duct joints.
The terrain plays a role too. Keene sits on the Blackland Prairie, where expansive clay soil shifts between wet winters and 100°F-plus summers. That movement pulls duct connections apart at floor and wall penetrations, letting unconditioned, dusty air into the system. Combine that with near-continuous HVAC runtime from June through September, and particulate buildup happens faster here than in more temperate parts of the metro. This is not a generic dust problem. It’s a Keene problem with a Keene solution.
Our Main Keene Services
Keene homeowners call us most about two things: getting years of accumulated debris out of their ducts, and clearing dryer vents that have become a fire hazard. Here’s what each job involves here, with a dedicated page for each service.
Air Duct Cleaning in Keene
For Keene homes, air duct cleaning means a full negative-pressure extraction of the supply and return sides, including the trunk lines and branch runs feeding each room. In the older campus-area homes, we also inspect for deteriorated duct liner and separated joints that pull attic or crawlspace air into the system. Every job gets a written price before work begins, and you’ll see the before-and-after photos of your own ducts before we hand you the invoice. Full details on our Air Duct Cleaning in Keene page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Keene
Dryer vents in Keene’s older homes often run long distances through walls or floor cavities, and lint accumulation in those runs is a genuine fire hazard. We clean the full vent path from the dryer connection to the exterior termination, using equipment that removes compacted lint without damaging the duct. For homes with a lint trap bypass or roof termination, we verify airflow at both ends. See what’s involved on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Keene page.
Air Duct Repair in Keene
Keene’s shifting clay soil separates duct joints over time, especially at floor and wall penetrations. When that happens, your system pulls unconditioned attic or crawlspace air into the home, and your HVAC works harder for no reason. We repair or replace damaged duct sections, reseal joints, and address deteriorated duct liner in older sheet-metal systems. Every repair carries a written guarantee with a free second visit if the repair doesn’t hold. Read the specifics on our Air Duct Repair in Keene page.

What Keene Customers Say
"Thorough job on all eleven vents and the main trunk. Took longer than the three hours they quoted, but he told me early and kept working. Air feels fresher."
- Meredith L."Tech arrived with a badge and a printed sheet of what he'd be doing. Ran a camera through the main trunk before and after so I could see the dust difference. Vents smell cleaner already."
- Gina R."Priced by the system, not by the vent, and he told me up front. No pressure to add the sanitizer and I said no without any fuss."
- Faith N.
