Pricing guide
What Does Air Duct Cleaning Cost in Utah County?
Mostly it comes down to five things: the size of the home, how many HVAC systems it has, how hard the ducts are to reach, how dirty they are, and what you add on. Here is how each one moves the price, and what our instant quote asks so you can see your own number in a couple of minutes.

The short answer
There is no honest single price for “a house”, because a two-furnace home with a finished basement is roughly twice the work of a one-system condo. Companies that advertise one price for every house tend to make it up on the day. We quote your home instead: answer a few questions online and the price you see is the price you pay. Prefer to talk? Call or text and we’ll go through it with you.
Five things that set the price
| What | Takes less time | Takes more time | Common in Utah County |
|---|---|---|---|
| Size and vent count | A condo or rambler with a dozen vents | A large two-story with twenty or more supply and return vents | Both. New builds tend to run big. |
| Number of systems | One furnace | Two or three furnaces. Each one is its own set of ducts, cleaned separately. | Two systems in larger newer homes |
| Access | An open basement and short runs | Ducts in an attic or crawlspace, or above finished ceilings | Finished basements, everywhere |
| How dirty | Ordinary household dust | Construction debris, heavy pet hair, evidence of rodents | Construction dust in Lehi, Saratoga Springs and Eagle Mountain |
| Add-ons | Ducts only | Dryer vent, blower and coil, sanitizing, bathroom exhaust fans | The dryer vent is the usual add-on |
How duct cleaners price a job
Most companies use one of four models, and the model tells you a lot about the job you’ll get:
- Per vent. Cheap-sounding, and it quietly rewards skipping vents. Count yours before you compare.
- Per square foot. A rough proxy for vent count. Fine for a quote, but it says nothing about access or how many systems you have.
- Per system, by home size. What we do. The number of furnaces and the size of the home are what actually set the hours on site.
- Flat “whole-house special”. The bait in most duct cleaning complaints. See below.
What a fair price should include
- Every supply and return duct, and the main trunk lines they branch from, not just the vent covers.
- The whole system under negative pressure, so loosened dust goes into the vacuum instead of your rooms.
- Registers and grilles cleaned.
- Care inside your home, and a clean work area afterward.
- Before and after photos of your own ducts.

What’s extra
Some things are separate jobs, and a fair quote says so up front rather than adding them at the door:
- Dryer vent cleaning. A yearly job on its own; easy to add to the same visit. What it includes.
- Blower and coil cleaning. The furnace blower and the AC coil are inside the equipment, not the ducts, so they’re a paid add-on. Blower and coil cleaning.
- Sanitizing. Optional, for lingering odors, and only after a cleaning. The EPA says research hasn’t shown duct biocides to be effective, so we don’t push it. When it makes sense.
- Bathroom exhaust fans. Separate short ducts to the roof; cleaned on request.
How long it takes
Most homes take about 2–3 hours per HVAC system. Each furnace counts as a system. Bigger homes, hard-to-reach ducts and heavy buildup run longer, which is most of what you’re paying for.
What the instant quote asks
Our online quote runs on Housecall Pro, the software that also schedules and invoices the job. It asks six things:
Your ZIP code
To confirm you’re in our service area.
Which service
Air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, or both.
Rough square footage and number of systems
Pick a size range and how many heating and cooling systems the home has. These two set most of the price.
Any add-ons
Dryer vent, sanitizing, coil cleaning, bathroom fans. Optional.
What prompted it
A line about why you’re looking, and photos if you have them, so we arrive prepared.
A time that suits you
Then you see the price and pick a slot. That price is what we charge on the day.
Why "$99 whole-house" is a red flag
Cleaning a whole system properly takes specialized equipment and time. Rock-bottom flat prices are a well-known bait-and-switch: the ad gets the crew in the door, then the price climbs, often with a sudden "mold problem". NADCA lists "whole-house specials for $100 or less" as a warning sign (NADCA). More on how to choose a duct cleaner.
What customers say about the price
“Getting the vents cleaned was so worth the money. Brock was punctual, professional, and informative of the services.”
“Our dryer duct was almost completely plugged and I liked receiving the photos showing before and after; it was money well spent.”
The price in your online quote is the price you pay. It won’t change on the day, and we go over what’s included before we start. If you’re booking air duct cleaning, you can add dryer vent cleaning to the same visit.
