Air Duct Cleaning Company in Los Angeles, CA
Air duct cleaning in Los Angeles runs most homeowners between $285 and $490, depending on the number of systems and how long it’s been since the last cleaning. We’re Kestrel Air Duct Los Angeles, and the work here is shaped by two things: decades-old ductwork in homes that predate modern filtration, and a semi-arid climate where dust and wildfire ash bake onto duct walls instead of washing away. Call (213) 733-0665 for a written quote before any work begins.
This page is the Los Angeles overview. Our two main services each have their own detailed Los Angeles page, linked below.
Why Los Angeles Homes Are Different
Most of Los Angeles’s housing stock was built between the 1920s and 1960s, which means galvanized steel ducts wrapped in asbestos-era paper insulation, sharp 90-degree elbows, and decades of accumulated debris. In neighborhoods like West Adams, Silver Lake, and the Fairfax District, we routinely open return plenums that haven’t been touched since the house was wired for knob-and-tube. The ducts themselves are often solid enough, but the mastic seals have dried and cracked, pulling dust from crawlspaces and attics into the conditioned air path.
Then there’s the climate. Los Angeles gets roughly 14 inches of rain a year, and none of it rinses the inside of a duct. Dust from the 10, the 110, and the 405 settles continuously. When the Santa Ana winds kick up in September and October, fine particulates from the San Gabriels and the high desert get pulled into homes through soffit vents and leaky return plenums. After a major wind event, calls from East Los Angeles and South LA triple, and the dust color tells us the source. Los Angeles duct work needs cleaning that’s calibrated to this specific environment, not a generic once-over.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Los Angeles Services
Los Angeles homeowners call us for two jobs more than anything else. Each service has its own detailed page with pricing, process, and local specifics.
Air Duct Cleaning in Los Angeles
Our Air Duct Cleaning in Los Angeles service starts with a camera inspection of the return and supply sides. In older Los Angeles homes, we often find original fiberglass-lined plenums that are shedding into the air stream. We use Rotobrush rotary brush agitation to break debris loose from the duct walls, paired with Nikro negative-air extraction to pull it out of the home rather than pushing it into living spaces. An Abatement Technologies HEPA unit runs throughout the job to capture what the agitation kicks up. This is the deep clean for homes where filters have been neglected or renovations left drywall dust in every trunk line.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Los Angeles
Los Angeles dryer vents run longer than they should, especially in older single-story homes where the laundry room sits on an interior wall and the vent shoots up through the roof or snakes across the attic. That lint builds up fast, and in our semi-arid climate it dries into a fire-ready tinder. Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Los Angeles service clears the full run from the lint trap to the exterior termination point, including the lint trap bypass where most clogs actually sit. We check for kinked foil, bird guards that have collapsed, and proper termination caps.

What pushes a Los Angeles price toward the higher end is the age of the home. A 1948 bungalow in Highland Park with original returns and a crawlspace plenum takes longer than a 2008 build in Playa Vista with flex lines and accessible registers. Either way, the number we write down is the number you pay, and it’s backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Los Angeles
Most Los Angeles appointments get scheduled within 2 to 4 business days. Neighborhoods east of downtown and south of the 10 tend to have the highest call volume after Santa Ana wind events, so windows may stretch slightly during those weeks. Call (213) 733-0665 for the soonest available slot.
Generally no, because the work happens entirely inside your unit’s duct run. But some Los Angeles HOAs require a certificate of insurance on file before any vendor enters the building. We can provide that same day, and if your building has a shared roof termination for dryer vents, the HOA may need to approve access. We’ll walk you through it.

What Los Angeles Customers Say
"Set up an appointment for the whole house plus the dryer line. They called the morning of to confirm, showed up in the window, and showed me pictures of the gunk they pulled out. Worth it."
- Terrence Boyd"Our dryer was taking two cycles to dry a load. They cleaned the vent and pulled out a frightening amount of lint. Dries in one cycle now and honestly I feel better about the fire risk."
- Marcus Lee"Air smells cleaner and the work was good. One tech tracked a little dirt in near the back door, but he noticed it himself and wiped it up before leaving. Would use again."
