What it costs
The same price book as our air duct cleaning page, for a home up to 2,000 square feet on one system. We look first: the tech takes a cover off, puts a camera in and photographs what’s in your ducts, then shows you, so you see their current condition before you decide. No charge, including when yours are fine. Then you get the price in writing, then we clean.

A second system bills at 90 percent of the tier, because it’s isolated and cleaned on its own. The calculator on our air duct cleaning page does the arithmetic for a bigger house.
The dryer vent cleaning is the yearly one, and it’s in Comfort+ membership at $199 a year along with a water heater flush with a sewer camera inspection, a heating maintenance visit and a cooling maintenance visit.
What’s different in Reston
Reston is heating-and-cooling country for us: HVAC is a bigger share of our work here than in any other town where we work regularly, and so is duct cleaning. Most of it happens in attached homes. Single-family houses are the minority here, about two in ten homes; townhouses make up about three in ten, and condo and apartment buildings are the biggest single group.
Each of those keeps its system somewhere different, and that decides where the work is. A Reston condo usually has a compact air handler behind a closet door feeding a handful of short runs, and the building’s shared pieces, like a common return or an exhaust shaft, are the condo association’s. A cluster townhouse tucks its air handler into a closet, up in the attic or down in the basement, and leans on one or two oversized returns per floor, which is where dust piles up first. The single-family houses are bigger, and a house with two systems gets two cleanings, one per air handler.
Heating splits nearly down the middle. Gas warms about half of Reston’s owner homes and electricity nearly all the rest, and in Reston’s townhouses and condos electric heat usually means a heat pump. That machine moves air through your ducts twelve months a year, in long, slow cycles, so the ductwork here never gets an off season.
Ages are mixed as well: roughly four of every ten homes predate 1980, a similar share arrived in the 1980s and 1990s, and around two in ten are newer than 2000. The older clusters usually still run their original sheet metal, which has carried more than forty years of air through every renovation and air handler swap since. The newer homes lean on flexible duct, which needs a gentler brush than metal.
Neighborhood by neighborhood
Census figures for each place, and what that usually means when we open the system. Median year built and heat count owner-occupied homes only.
| Place | Median home built | Most homes are | Heated with | What we usually find |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reston | 1981 | condo and apartment buildings, about 4 in 10 | gas, about 5 in 10 | 1980s and 90s houses: sheet-metal trunks, flexible runs and one big return. |
| Great Falls Crossing | 1993 | single-family houses, about 9 in 10 | gas, about 8 in 10 | 1980s and 90s houses: sheet-metal trunks, flexible runs and one big return. |
By the numbers
From the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 survey. Median year built and heat count owner-occupied homes only.
When it’s worth doing
Because a heat pump runs the blower in both seasons, the filter and the return side handle more air in a year than they would behind a gas furnace. If a new filter is grey within a month, the returns are worth a camera before the next one goes in.
Which is most houses. Nobody opens a duct, so it never comes up until somebody looks.
You don’t know whether the last owners had three cats or ever took a register cover off. Most new owners want it done once, early, so they know what they’re starting with.
The dryer vent, locally
Fairfax County Fire and Rescue tells every household to clean the lint out of the dryer vent pipe once a year, sooner if clothes are taking longer to dry, and to have a gas dryer checked by a professional. Source.

Choosing who cleans them
Questions to ask anybody who quotes you, us included.
In a Reston condo, the shared parts of the building belong to the condo association, and in a cluster the common areas belong to the cluster association. A duct cleaner who works here should know that line, clean everything on your side of it and tell you who to call about the rest.
Ask whether they’ll put a camera in and show you photos of what’s inside first. A price given at the door, sight unseen, is a price for the average house, not yours.
The returns are the big grilles that pull air back to the system, and they’re the side that collects dust. A job that only counts supply registers leaves half the system alone.
Ask what it covers: every supply and return, the main trunk, the blower compartment. The $59 mailbox coupon covers getting somebody into the attic.

Questions
No. RA’s design guidelines cover changes to the outside of your home, and duct cleaning is all inside. Its general rule is that exterior alterations need approval unless a guideline or your cluster’s standards say otherwise, so an outside change, like a new dryer vent hood in a different spot, is the thing to check first.
Yes. In most Reston buildings the unit’s ductwork and air handler belong to the owner, and a condo system cleans up faster than a house. Let us know the building name when you book, so we can sort out parking and the elevator, and look through your condo documents for anything shared, like a common exhaust.
That’s usually the electric backup heat: coils inside the air handler that sat idle all summer collecting dust, and cook it off the first time they switch on. It should clear the same day. If it lingers, or smells electrical rather than dusty, turn the system off and call us; that’s a repair visit, not a duct cleaning.
$598 for Whole Home Air Duct Cleaning, regularly $798, on a home up to 2,000 square feet with one system, $298 for Return Air Duct Cleaning, and $1,798 with an ActivePure air scrubber installed. Dryer vent cleaning is $199 added to a duct cleaning; on its own it’s $199, normally $298, with a year of Comfort+ membership included.
Sometimes, and the camera photos are how you find out. If the duct walls are furred over, cleaning takes that out of the loop your air runs through, and the before and after are obvious. If the metal is clean, it isn’t worth doing and we’ll say so. The EPA’s position is that routine cleaning hasn’t been shown to prevent health problems, so we don’t sell it that way.
