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 Kennesaw, GA
HVAC cleaning in Kennesaw typically runs $350-$650 for a whole-system job, with air quality and sanitizing services adding $200-$500 depending on whether mold treatment or UV installation is needed. The 1985-2005 subdivision homes that dominate Kennesaw’s housing stock were built with flex duct routed through unconditioned attics, and those systems now show accelerated degradation from Cobb County’s heat and pollen loads. CleanRun crews coordinate dispatch from our Atlanta office and serve Kennesaw with background-checked, uniformed technicians who deliver a written price before any work starts - call (678) 679-7540 for a free estimate.
Why Kennesaw Homes Are Different
Kennesaw’s explosive residential buildout along Barrett Parkway and the Town Center corridor from the mid-1980s through the early 2000s left tens of thousands of homes with original flex-duct systems now 25-40 years old. These run through unconditioned attic spaces that routinely exceed 130°F in summer, degrading the inner liner and causing it to shed fibrous particles into the airstream - a failure mode far more prevalent here than in older Atlanta neighborhoods with hard-pipe systems.
Proximity to Kennesaw Mountain’s heavily forested slopes drives exceptionally high oak and pine pollen loads each spring. That pollen infiltrates return-air systems and packs into flex duct bends. Combined with muggy summers, HVAC systems cycle through high humidity for months, making mold colonization inside neglected duct systems a realistic and common finding. Technicians working subdivisions off Jiles Road or Stilesboro Road regularly find flex duct partially collapsed at interior joints from cheap 1990s clamps, turning sections into debris traps standard brush cleaning cannot fully clear.
Our Main Kennesaw Services
Most Kennesaw homeowners who call CleanRun need one of these three services. Each has its own dedicated Kennesaw page with full pricing and scope details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Kennesaw
We clean the full duct run - supply and return - using negative-pressure extraction (a vacuum system that pulls debris out while agitation tools loosen it) and photograph every section before and after. In Kennesaw’s 1990s subdivisions, we often find pollen-packed debris at flex-duct elbows where sagging has created low points. The job concludes with a Documented Photo Record delivered to you, and every price is written before work begins. Air Duct Cleaning in Kennesaw covers full pricing and what’s included.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kennesaw
Dryer vent cleaning removes lint accumulation from the transition duct and exterior termination point, reducing fire risk and improving drying efficiency. Kennesaw’s mature oak canopy contributes debris that combines with lint in vents with screen-style terminations. We use rotary brush systems and verify airflow improvement with before-and-after measurements. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Kennesaw has full details.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Kennesaw
When flex-duct inner liners have degraded or joints have separated, cleaning alone is insufficient. We re-secure collapsed sections, replace damaged flex runs, and seal plenum connections with mastic. Kennesaw’s attic heat makes this work especially critical - separated ducts dump conditioned air into 130°F spaces and draw attic air into the return. Duct Repair & Sealing in Kennesaw explains when repair replaces cleaning.

AfterHVAC Cleaning in Kennesaw
HVAC cleaning in Kennesaw addresses the components air moves through after it leaves the ductwork - the evaporator coil, blower, condenser, and air handler - where pollen and humidity create biological growth and efficiency losses. Our crews use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment on these jobs, and every system receives a written scope and price before a panel comes off. HVAC Cleaning covers our full equipment and methodology.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Ice formation on the coil, reduced airflow from registers, or a musty odor when the AC cycles on in Kennesaw’s humid summer months.
What it costs in Kennesaw
Evaporator coil cleaning typically runs $180-$320 in Kennesaw, with pulled-and-cleaned pricing at the higher end when the coil is deeply fouled with pollen and biological growth.
How we do it
We access the coil through the plenum (the main air distribution box), apply foaming cleaner, rinse with low-pressure water, and photograph the coil condition before and after treatment.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Vibration or noise from the air handler, uneven airflow between rooms, or dust accumulation visible at the blower compartment access panel.
What it costs in Kennesaw
Blower cleaning and wheel balancing typically costs $150-$280 in Kennesaw, depending on whether the motor requires removal for thorough cleaning.
How we do it
We remove the blower assembly, clean the wheel and housing with compressed air and solvent, balance the wheel, and document motor amp draw before reassembly.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Kennesaw
| Item | Typical range in Kennesaw |
|---|---|
| Evaporator coil cleaning | $180-$320 |
| Blower cleaning | $150-$280 |
| Full HVAC cleaning (coil + blower + condenser) | $350-$650 |
How do I know if my HVAC components need cleaning or just the ducts?
If you smell must when the AC starts, see ice on the coil, or feel weak airflow despite clean ducts, the components need attention. Call (678) 679-7540 and we’ll inspect both the ductwork and the air handler to scope what’s actually needed.
Can HVAC cleaning improve my energy bills in Kennesaw’s climate?
A fouled coil or blower can reduce system efficiency 15-25%, which adds up across Cobb County’s long cooling season. We measure static pressure and airflow before and after so you can see the mechanical difference, not just take our word for it.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Kennesaw
Air quality and sanitizing in Kennesaw targets the biological load that builds in flex-duct systems exposed to attic heat and mountain-driven pollen - mold colonization in sagging duct sections, bacterial growth on wet coils, and the persistent odors that result. We apply Abatement Technologies and Guardsman products on these jobs, and every treatment is scoped in writing with before-and-after photo documentation. Air Quality & Sanitizing details our full treatment protocols.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Visible mold at registers, a persistent earthy odor when the system runs, or recent water intrusion into the ductwork from a roof leak or condensation overflow.
What it costs in Kennesaw
Whole-system mold treatment typically runs $400-$800 in Kennesaw, with localized spot treatment starting at $200 for single duct runs with limited colonization.
How we do it
We apply EPA-registered antimicrobial through the duct system using fogging equipment, treat the evaporator coil and plenum directly, and collect post-treatment samples to document reduction.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring mold or biological growth despite previous cleaning, or a household member with respiratory sensitivity to airborne microbial load.
What it costs in Kennesaw
UV-C light installation at the coil or in the return plenum typically costs $300-$600 in Kennesaw, including the lamp, ballast, and electrical connection.
How we do it
We mount a Honeywell or Aprilaire UV lamp at the coil face or in the return air stream, wire to the air handler’s 24V circuit, and provide lamp replacement scheduling.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Kennesaw
| Item | Typical range in Kennesaw |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment (whole system) | $400-$800 |
| Bacteria sanitizing | $200-$400 |
| UV light installation | $300-$600 |
Is mold in my ducts actually dangerous, or just unpleasant?
Active mold colonization releases spores into occupied space; for most people this causes irritation, but for sensitive individuals it can trigger significant respiratory response. We photograph what we find and explain the condition in plain terms - no alarmism, just documented evidence.
How long does sanitizing treatment last?
Antimicrobial treatment suppresses existing growth but does not prevent recurrence if moisture conditions persist. UV lamps require annual bulb replacement; we schedule this automatically as part of the installation record.
Brands We Service in Kennesaw
We stock parts and service equipment from Honeywell, Aprilaire, Abatement Technologies, and Guardsman, with filters and UV lamps carried on our Kennesaw-area trucks for same-visit replacement when possible. See our brands for the full equipment roster.
