Air Duct Cleaning Company in Florence-Graham, CA
Most Florence-Graham homes were built between the 1940s and 1960s, which means the ductwork that exists today is either original, patched together from retrofitted additions, or improvised around converted garages and added rooms. Air Duct Repair is the service we get called for most often here, because these older duct runs crack, separate, and pull away from wall furnaces under decades of South LA heat and freeway vibration. We handle the repair, the cleaning, and the dryer vent work with commercial-grade equipment, and you can call (855) 382-4682 for a straight answer about what’s going on in your ductwork. Eastgate Air Duct Cleaning has served Florence-Graham since 2015.
Why Florence-Graham Homes Are Different
Florence-Graham sits hemmed in by the 110 and I-105 freeways, so the air moving through these streets carries a constant load of diesel soot, brake dust, and tire grit. That stuff gets pulled into return grilles and settles inside duct runs much faster than in neighborhoods further from the freeway corridors. A technician working in Florence-Graham will routinely pull gray-black residue out of registers that look clean from the outside. The long, dry, low-rainfall stretches and Santa Ana wind events push even more grit and pollen into ducts and wall furnaces, and when winter heating kicks on, the accumulated dust inside old wall furnaces compresses and burns off as a distinct smell.
The housing stock here is overwhelmingly small stucco bungalows, duplexes, and backyard units. Very few have central HVAC. Most homes rely on original or retrofitted wall furnaces, and many added rooms or converted garages have improvised, non-sealed ducting that was never properly connected to begin with. That changes the job. A typical central-air duct cleaning assumes a sealed system with a blower and a main return. In Florence-Graham, we are often working on undersized furnace ducts, disconnected sections behind walls, and flex runs that were squeezed into tight attic spaces decades ago. Repair comes before cleaning far more often here than in newer suburban tracts.
Small landlords in Florence-Graham face a particular challenge: tenant turnover brings complaints about dust, smells, and rooms that never heat evenly, and the cause is usually a duct system that was never properly sealed or has failed behind the wall. We diagnose those problems directly instead of layering a cleaning on top of a broken system.

Our Main Florence-Graham Services
Two services drive most calls from Florence-Graham homeowners and property managers: air duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Both are shaped by the local conditions here, and both are covered by our Florence-Graham-specific pages below.
Air Duct Cleaning in Florence-Graham
In Florence-Graham, duct cleaning means working around wall furnaces, undersized older ducts, and retrofitted runs rather than a sealed central-air system. We use the same Rotobrush and Nikro equipment on these smaller systems that professional HVAC contractors use on large central installations, sized down for the duct dimensions common in 1950s bungalows. The freeway soot load near the 110 and I-105 means we clean registers, boots, and the full accessible duct run, not just the trunk line. Read the full service breakdown on our Air Duct Cleaning in Florence-Graham page.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Florence-Graham
Dryer vent cleaning in Florence-Graham is a fire-risk reduction job first. Many of these older homes have long, narrow, or oddly routed dryer vents that were added years after the house was built, and lint packs tight in the elbows. Given the dry air and dust load off the freeways, vents here plug faster than homeowners expect. Read the full service detail, including how we handle long runs and rooftop terminations, on our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Florence-Graham page.
Air Duct Repair in Florence-Graham
Air Duct Repair in Florence-Graham usually means addressing ductwork that has failed in one specific way: sections have pulled apart at the joints, flex duct has collapsed, or boots have detached from registers behind walls. The houses themselves are mostly 1940s-1960s stucco bungalows and duplexes, and many have added rooms or converted garages whose duct runs were improvised and never sealed properly. Decades of dry heat baking the materials, combined with the vibration and soot load from the bordering 110 and I-105 corridors, leaves joints loose and gaps opening where conditioned air escapes into attics, crawlspaces, and wall cavities. On this page you will find the sub-jobs we perform, what they cost in Florence-Graham, and the signs that tell you whether you have a cleaning problem or a repair problem. For a broader look at how we approach these failures, see our Air Duct Repair hub.
HVAC Duct Installation
Signs you need it
You need new duct installation when the existing runs are so undersized, damaged, or improvised that sealing and repair cannot restore proper airflow.
What it costs in Florence-Graham
HVAC duct installation in Florence-Graham typically runs $850 to $2,100 depending on the number of runs and the accessibility of the attic or crawlspace.
How we do it
We measure each room’s heating load, size the duct runs properly, and install sealed, insulated duct sections connected to the existing wall furnace or blower, then verify airflow at every register.
Air Duct Replacement
Signs you need it
You need duct replacement when sections have collapsed, torn, or separated so badly that they cannot hold air pressure, or when the material itself is crumbling from age.
What it costs in Florence-Graham
Air duct replacement in Florence-Graham typically runs $650 to $1,900 depending on how many sections have failed and whether the runs run through an attic, crawlspace, or wall chase.
How we do it
We cut out the failed sections, match the replacement material and diameter to the surviving system, install new sealed connections, and confirm airflow and static pressure at the end of the job.
Ductwork Repair
Signs you need it
You need ductwork repair when specific rooms never reach temperature, when registers rattle or leak, or when you can feel air escaping at joints and seams in an exposed attic or crawlspace.
What it costs in Florence-Graham
Ductwork repair in Florence-Graham typically runs $280 to $650 per affected section, with most small to moderate repairs landing between $400 and $900 for a typical bungalow’s accessible runs.
How we do it
We locate the failing joints and gaps, pull the sections back into alignment, seal the seams with mastic and metal tape, re-insulate where needed, and re-check airflow at the register.
Duct Replacement
Signs you need it
You need full duct replacement when the system is original to a 1940s-1960s Florence-Graham home, has never been sealed, and is losing enough air that heating rooms is impossible without constant furnace runtime.
What it costs in Florence-Graham
Full duct replacement in Florence-Graham typically runs $900 to $2,500 depending on the number of rooms and the condition of the existing registers and boots.
How we do it
We remove the failed ductwork, replace it with properly sized sealed runs, reconnect all boots and registers, and verify the wall furnace or blower is pushing air evenly to every room.
Ductwork Installation
Signs you need it
You need ductwork installation when a converted garage or added room has no duct connection at all, or when a wall furnace was added without proper distribution runs.
What it costs in Florence-Graham
Ductwork installation for a new room or converted space in Florence-Graham typically runs $800 to $2,200 depending on the length of the run and the need to cut new register openings.
How we do it
We run sealed, insulated duct from the existing furnace or blower to the new room, install a properly sized register and boot, and equalize airflow so the rest of the home does not lose pressure.

Does air duct repair require a permit in Florence-Graham?
Most duct repair and replacement work inside an existing wall furnace system does not require a standalone permit, but any modification to the furnace itself may. We tell you upfront if your specific job crosses that line.
How do I know if my Florence-Graham ducts can be cleaned or need repair?
If the ducts are connected and sealed, cleaning is enough. If sections are loose, crushed, or blowing air into the attic, you need repair first. We inspect before quoting either one. Call (855) 382-4682.

What Florence-Graham Customers Say
"Two guys, about three hours, plastic down at every register, and they wiped the vent covers before putting them back."
- Andres Castillo"Did the dryer vent while they were here for a small add on price. The dryer now finishes a load in one cycle instead of two."
- Emily Yang"Job was done well and the house smells better. There was some dust knocked loose around a couple of the registers that I had to wipe down afterward."
