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 Englewood
Air duct cleaning in Englewood typically runs $380-$720 for a full residential system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. We dispatch crews to Englewood from our Denver office, and we’ve been working on the specific duct configurations found in this city’s mid-century housing stock since 2013.
Englewood sits on a tight 3.4-square-mile grid of post-WWII ranch homes and bungalows, many with original sheet metal ductwork that has never been professionally cleaned in 50-70 years. The hybrid duct geometry in these houses, retrofitted from gravity furnaces to forced air, demands equipment and technique that differ from what works in newer suburbs. Our Air Duct Cleaning team arrives with Rotobrush and Nikro systems sized for irregular trunk lines, and every job starts with a written price before a single panel comes off. Call (720) 315-7291 for a free estimate.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Littleton Is Englewood’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve served over 52,000 homes since 2013, and a significant concentration of that work has been in Englewood’s 80110, 80113, and 80150 zip codes. The density of 1945-1970 housing here means we’ve documented more retrofitted gravity-furnace systems in this small footprint than in most surrounding cities combined. That repetition matters. A technician who has cleaned fifty Englewood crawl spaces recognizes the joint-separation pattern before the camera goes in.
Our reviews from Englewood customers consistently cite the photo record as the deciding factor. One homeowner near Belleview Park wrote that seeing the 3-inch debris build-up at the first elbow, photographed and time-stamped, made the need obvious in a way that verbal claims never could. Another near Hampden Avenue noted that the written price matched the final invoice exactly, Haven Standard Clause 1, with no per-vent add-ons after the crew arrived.
Response time to Englewood is typically same-week, with scheduling coordinated from our Denver office. Crews are background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before arrival, per Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies to every Englewood job in writing, not as a policy subject to manager approval.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Englewood
Residential Duct Cleaning
Englewood’s ranch homes and bungalows present a specific challenge: original sheet metal ductwork running through unconditioned crawl spaces, often with six-plus decades of accumulated Colorado silt. Our residential service covers every duct run, register (the vent cover you see), and the plenum (the main distribution box attached to your furnace). We use negative-pressure extraction, HEPA filtration, and Rotobrush agitation systems sized for the irregular geometry common in Englewood’s retrofitted systems.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Englewood’s commercial corridor along South Broadway and the smaller professional buildings near Swedish Medical Center require scheduled cleaning that doesn’t disrupt operations. We work after-hours and weekends, with the same written-price protocol and documented photo record applied to commercial systems. Rooftop units and multi-zone systems in these buildings often show accelerated fouling from the same Front Range particulate load that affects residential intakes.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts carry heated or cooled air to your rooms. In Englewood’s mid-century homes, these branch runs were often added during gravity-furnace retrofits, tied into oversized trunk lines with non-standard fittings. The result is dead-end pockets where debris collects beyond the reach of standard single-hose equipment. Our supply duct service includes video inspection to locate these bypassed sections before cleaning begins.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to the furnace for reconditioning. In Englewood, these run especially dirty. Chinook winds carry fine silty particulates from the eastern plains directly into HVAC intakes, and increasingly severe wildfire smoke seasons cause residents to seal homes and run systems continuously for days, dramatically increasing particulate load. Return duct cleaning here isn’t cosmetic. It’s load reduction on the blower motor.
Full System Cleaning
This is our most called-for service in Englewood. A full system cleaning addresses supply ducts, return ducts, the plenum, registers, and the blower assembly as one integrated job. Given the joint separation and debris accumulation patterns we find in this city’s older housing, cleaning components in isolation often misses the real problem. The full system approach includes reconnection and sealing of separated runs where found, documented before and after.
Video Inspection
Our crew was called to a 1950s ranch near the 3400 block of South Bannock in Englewood where the homeowner complained that one back bedroom never got warm. Under camera inspection we found the branch run had separated at a crawl-space joint, and the abandoned octopus-furnace trunk was packed with decades of Colorado silt. We reconnected and sealed the run, then cleaned the supply and return ducts under negative pressure with HEPA filtration, and the room finally heated evenly. Video inspection in Englewood routinely reveals what surface cleaning misses.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Englewood
Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro negative-pressure extractors, Honeywell media filters, and Aprilaire whole-home air cleaners. These are professional-grade tools customers can look up independently, not proprietary names with unverifiable claims. We stock common replacement components for Englewood’s prevalent mid-century systems, including flex-duct transition fittings and sheet metal joint sealants, so repairs found during cleaning don’t require a second visit. Parts availability matters in a city where original ductwork is still in service after seven decades.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Englewood Homes
- Joint separation in crawl-space branch runs. Original sheet metal branch runs in Englewood crawl spaces have separated at joints, so cleaning without reconnecting and sealing just re-dirties the system on the next cycle. We find this in roughly half the 1950s-1960s ranches we inspect.
- Dead-end debris pockets in retrofitted trunk lines. Retrofitted gravity-furnace trunk lines in these mid-century homes are oversized and irregular, and a standard single-hose clean bypasses the dead-end pockets where silt actually sits. Only equipment capable of navigating irregular geometry reaches these areas.
- Accelerated return duct fouling from Front Range particulates. Chinook-driven Front Range dust and wildfire-smoke seasons load Englewood return ducts faster than registers show, so homeowners assume a clean is overdue only when the blower motor starts straining. The visible vents look fine. The hidden ductwork doesn’t.
- Crushed or kinked flex-duct additions from DIY repairs. Previous homeowners in Englewood’s aging stock often added flex-duct sections themselves, running them through tight crawl spaces with improper support. These crimped sections restrict airflow and trap debris at the kink point.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Englewood, CO
A typical residential Full System Cleaning in Englewood runs $380-$720, depending on system size and accessibility. Video Inspection alone, when booked as a standalone diagnostic, runs $180-$260.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Englewood
Original sheet metal ductwork in Englewood’s 1945-1970 housing was designed for gravity furnaces and later retrofitted for forced air, creating irregular geometry where debris accumulates in dead-end pockets that modern duct systems don’t have. Combined with six-plus decades of Colorado silt and crawl-space joint separation that lets debris bypass the filter entirely, these systems foul faster than the smooth, sealed ductwork in homes built after 1990. Call (720) 315-7291 for a video inspection to see your specific accumulation.
Video inspection finds disconnected branch runs at crawl-space joints, debris-packed abandoned trunk lines from the original gravity system, and crushed flex-duct additions from previous DIY repairs, none of which are visible from the registers. In our field experience near South Bannock and throughout Englewood’s mid-century grid, roughly half of the airflow complaints we diagnose trace to separation or blockage found only under camera. The inspection takes 20-30 minutes and the footage is yours to keep.
Most Englewood crawl spaces already have access panels from prior HVAC work, and our Rotobrush and Nikro equipment is designed to navigate through existing openings without new cuts. Where access is genuinely insufficient, we note this during the pre-work walkthrough and include any necessary panel addition in the written price before starting. Haven Standard Clause 1 means no surprise charges for access issues discovered mid-job.
Cleaning removes accumulated particulate load already inside your ductwork, but the real benefit for wildfire smoke is identifying and sealing the gaps in retrofitted systems where unfiltered outside air is drawn in during pressurization cycles. Englewood’s older ductwork, with its joint separation and incomplete sealing at the plenum, often pulls crawl-space air directly into the supply stream. We document these leaks during video inspection and include sealing in the scope when found.
The Documented Photo Record shows the inside of every duct run, before and after, time-stamped and delivered as part of your job record. You see what the camera saw, not what a technician claims. The 365-Day Done Right Promise, backed in writing on every job, means if the work is not right, we make it right. No manager approval required. Haven Standard Clause 5: Accountable Work.
