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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Aurora
Air duct cleaning for a typical Aurora home runs $380-$650 for a full system, with older west-side properties sometimes reaching $720-$950 if degraded duct board requires containment protocols. We’re CleanRun Duct Repair & Sealing - Aurora, and our crews serve Aurora from our Denver office - dispatching to neighborhoods from Hoffman Heights to Tallyn’s Reach with background-checked, uniformed technicians who arrive named and on time. Call (719) 259-4520 for a written estimate before any work starts.
Aurora’s position on the exposed High Plains edge of the Front Range creates a ductwork environment we don’t see in Denver’s more sheltered urban core. Persistent wind-driven prairie dust from the east, periodic wildfire smoke from the mountains to the west, and the city’s enormous inventory of 1960s-1980s ranch homes with original unsealed sheet-metal ductwork mean local systems clog measurably faster and require different cleaning protocols than standard suburban jobs.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Parker Is Aurora’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve served Aurora since expanding our Denver-area operations, and the pattern is consistent: homeowners here research thoroughly before calling. They want documented evidence, not promises. Our Air Duct Cleaning in Aurora customers receive a written price before any panel comes off, a photo record of every duct run before and after, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise backed in writing on every job - Haven Standard Clause 1, no exceptions.
Our reputation in Aurora is built on what we can show. The photo records from jobs in Aurora Hills, Hoffman Heights, and Southshore are specific: 3-inch debris build-up at the first elbow, crumbling duct board seams, construction dust packed into new flex runs. Customers verify our equipment independently - Rotobrush agitation tools, Nikro and Abatement Technologies negative-pressure systems, Honeywell and Aprilaire filtration components - because we name the brands on every quote.
Response time to Aurora neighborhoods is same-day scheduling for estimates, with work typically completed within 48-72 hours of written approval. Our Denver office coordinates dispatch; crews are already familiar with Aurora’s street grid, from the older west-side loops to the eastward sprawl past E-470. Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews means every technician is background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before arrival.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Aurora
Residential Duct Cleaning
Aurora’s housing stock splits into two distinct categories, and our residential protocol adapts to each. In the 1960s-1980s ranch tracts of western and central Aurora - Aurora Hills, Hoffman Heights, the original Colfax corridor - we regularly encounter original single-layer sheet-metal ducts with minimal sealing that draw unconditioned, particulate-laden air from crawlspaces and attics. The clay-rich High Plains dust stays suspended in low humidity, coating interiors faster than in more humid climates. Our Air Duct Cleaning crews establish negative-pressure containment at the air handler, brush with Rotobrush tools, and extract with HEPA-filtered source removal - not shop vac recirculation.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Aurora’s commercial base includes medical offices along Iliff, retail at Southlands, and industrial facilities near I-70 and E-470. Commercial systems here face the same dual-particulate load as residences - prairie dust plus wildfire smoke - but at higher volume and with stricter occupancy requirements. We quote commercial jobs with a written scope and price before work begins, photograph every duct run, and deliver the documented photo record as a standard deliverable for facilities maintenance files.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply runs in Aurora’s older homes demand particular attention. The fibrous duct board installed in 1960s-70s west-side ranches fragments into the airstream as it ages. Without negative-pressure containment established before brushing, cleaning itself releases fiberglass particles into living areas. This failure mode comes up far more often in Aurora’s older stock than in comparable Denver suburbs. Our protocol: Abatement Technologies HEPA containment at the plenum, verified before any agitation begins.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts are the intake lungs of the system, and in Aurora they work overtime. High-wind events keep fine clay dust airborne; low humidity prevents settling. The return pulls this load continuously, and standard 1-inch filters don’t catch the ultrafine fraction. We inspect returns with video camera first - part of our standard assessment - then clean with negative-pressure extraction that removes rather than redistributes the debris.
Full System Cleaning
A full system cleaning in Aurora addresses supply ducts, return ducts, the plenum (the central distribution box), registers, and the air handler cabinet. For rural properties on unpaved roads with wood heat, this is the standard we recommend. Wood-heat ash, road dust, and pollen create a combined loading that isolated component cleaning won’t address. The full system price range of $480-$720 for most Aurora homes includes the documented photo record of every run.
Video Inspection
Our video inspection service uses camera-equipped tools to show the interior condition of ductwork before any cleaning decision. In Aurora, this is particularly valuable for older homes where duct board degradation or sheet-metal seam separation may affect the recommended approach. The video becomes part of the job record, and customers see exactly what we see - no interpretation required.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Aurora
CleanRun crews arrive with professional-grade equipment from trade-recognized brands: Rotobrush agitation systems for mechanical brushing, Nikro and Abatement Technologies negative-pressure extractors for source removal, and Honeywell and Aprilaire filtration components. Aurora customers can verify these specifications independently - we name the equipment on every written quote, not in marketing copy but as part of the documented scope. Parts and consumables are stocked at our Denver office, so replacement filters, HEPA bags, and brush heads don’t delay scheduled work.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Aurora Homes
- Degraded duct board in west-side ranches. In Aurora Hills and Hoffman Heights, we regularly open returns to find original 1960s-70s fibrous duct board crumbling at seams. Without negative-pressure containment with HEPA filtration established before brushing, the cleaning process itself releases fiberglass particles into living areas.
- Shop-vac “cleaning” that recirculates prairie dust. Some providers set up only a vacuum and brush with no source removal or HEPA containment. The fine, clay-rich High Plains dust that Aurora’s wind keeps airborne gets stirred up and pulled right back through the return intake.
- Construction dust in newer east-side developments. Tallyn’s Reach, Southshore, and the continuous adjacent development along Aurora’s eastern edge produce brand-new duct systems contaminated by fine construction particulates. Standard filter changes don’t remove packed drywall dust and silica from flex runs.
- Ignored outbuilding systems on rural properties. Longer service drives tempt crews to rush the main house and skip detached garages, workshops, and guest quarters. These outbuilding ducts collect wood-heat ash and lint on their own schedule and feed contamination back into the main system if connected.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Aurora
Every 2-3 years for properties with unpaved road access and supplemental wood heat, versus the 3-5 year interval typical for filtered suburban systems. The combined loading of clay-rich road dust, wood-heat ash, and pollen overwhelms standard filtration. Call (719) 259-4520 and we’ll assess your specific system load with a video inspection included in the estimate.
Original 1960s-70s fibrous duct board in west-side neighborhoods like Aurora Hills and Hoffman Heights degrades and sheds fiberglass into the airstream. Without negative-pressure containment established at the air handler before brushing, the cleaning itself releases those fibers into living areas. Our protocol requires HEPA containment verification before any agitation begins.
Yes. Ultrafine combustion particulates from summer wildfire events penetrate standard HVAC filters and deposit deep into duct systems. Ordinary filter maintenance doesn’t remove these deposits; negative-pressure source extraction with HEPA filtration does. We’ve documented this residue in Aurora returns after every major smoke event since 2013.
NADCA ACR-2021 requires source removal - debris must be extracted from the system, not just dislodged - with mechanical agitation and negative-pressure collection at the point of disturbance. In Aurora’s context, this means HEPA-filtered containment, not shop-vac recirculation, and documented verification that the system was left intact. Our photo record of every run provides that documentation.
Yes, if they’re ducted to the main system or have independent HVAC. Outbuilding ducts collect wood-heat ash, vehicle exhaust particulates, and workshop dust on their own timeline. Ignoring them leaves a contamination source that affects the whole property. We price outbuilding add-ons at $145-$245 and include them in the documented photo record.
