We’re Bellows Air Duct & Vent Co., and we’ve been driving the Kendall corridor to homes in 33173 since 2012.

Call (844) 685-6342 and you’ll reach a live person, not a menu.
Sunset’s not like drier parts of the Sun Belt. The humidity here is relentless, and the 1970s ranch homes that define this ZIP have flex-duct systems that never get a break. We know what to look for because we’ve cleaned thousands of them.
Why Bellows Air Duct & Vent Co. Is Sunset’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been serving the Kendall-area communities for over 14 years, and Sunset’s 33173 ZIP has been part of our route since the first tract homes went up. Our customers here are homeowners who’ve been in the same house for twenty, thirty, sometimes forty years. They don’t want a coupon bait-and-switch. They want the job done right, verified with a camera, and backed in writing.
Our 90-Day Done Right Promise applies to every Sunset job: if it’s not right, we come back at no charge, no paperwork, no arguing. That’s stamped on every invoice. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and they answer to a live person at our office 24 hours a day. Most Sunset calls are same-day or next-day. We don’t make you wait a week for something your family’s breathing every minute.
We know the local housing stock. The split-levels off Kendall Drive, the ranches with Florida Room additions, the homes where original 1970s ductwork is still in place. That knowledge changes how we approach the job.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Sunset
Residential Duct Cleaning in Sunset
Most of our Sunset calls are for single-family homes built during Miami-Dade’s westward expansion, 1970s through early 1990s. These houses run AC year-round, and their flex-duct systems in hot attics never dry out. We use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to agitate and extract buildup from the full duct run, not just the vents you can see. Every residential job includes camera inspection before and after, so you see what was in there and what isn’t anymore.
Commercial Duct Cleaning in Sunset
Sunset’s commercial base is smaller than central Miami’s, but the medical offices, retail strips, and professional buildings along Sunset Drive and SW 72nd Street have the same humidity challenges. Commercial systems here often combine older rooftop units with added-on ductwork from multiple renovations. We clean the full system, document with video, and work around your hours so you’re not losing business.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts carry cooled air to your rooms. In Sunset homes, we regularly find that supply lines have separated at ceiling boots, dumping conditioned air into attics and pulling humid, spore-laden air back through gaps. Cleaning supply ducts without checking those connections is half a job. Our Air Duct Cleaning team inspects every boot and seals what needs sealing.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to your handler, and they’re the first place we see filter bypass and microbial growth in 33173 homes. Because returns run at negative pressure, any leak draws in attic air. In Sunset’s humidity, that means continuous moisture injection and mold colonization. We clean the full return path and check for leaks that simple vent cleaning misses.
Full System Cleaning
This is what most Sunset homes actually need. Full system cleaning covers supply ducts, return ducts, the plenum, and the evaporator coil area. Given Sunset’s year-round AC run times, coil condensate issues upstream readily spread contamination through the entire duct network. We address the system as a whole, not just the parts that are easy to reach.
Video Inspection
Every Bellows job starts and ends with camera verification. For Sunset’s older homes, this is especially critical. We feed a camera through the duct run to document separated boots, moisture staining, and microbial growth before we start. After cleaning, we verify the results. You see the record, not just our word.

Trusted Brands We Service in Sunset
We clean and service systems with equipment from Rotobrush, Abatement Technologies, and Aprilaire, the same brands serious HVAC contractors specify. For Sunset customers, this means we don’t need to order parts from across the county. We carry what we need to complete most jobs in that single visit, including replacement boots, sealants rated for South Florida humidity, and antimicrobial treatments. If your system uses Honeywell or Guardsman components, we service those too.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Sunset Homes
- DIY-grade duct extensions from Florida Room retrofits. A significant share of 33173 homes had screen-enclosure or Florida Room additions added after original construction. The flex-duct extensions installed by homeowners or unlicensed contractors often use unsupported sag runs and unsealed connections. These create condensation hotspots where mold colonizes continuously.
- Original duct boots separated from registers. After decades of humidity cycling, the original 1970s duct boots in Sunset’s ranch homes pull away from subfloor and ceiling registers. Loose boots don’t just leak conditioned air; they actively draw in attic air laden with mold spores and fiberglass particles. Simple vent cleaning won’t fix this. The boots need re-sealing.
- Year-round AC preventing any seasonal dry-out. In most of the country, duct systems get a few months of rest when heating season ends. Sunset’s cooling loads run essentially 12 months a year. Evaporator coil condensate issues that would self-limit in a drier climate instead spread microbial contamination through the entire duct system without interruption.
- Evaporator coil contamination spreading downstream. Because Sunset’s humidity stays in the 80-90% range even during the “dry” season, minor coil drainage issues create continuous moisture injection into the airstream. That contamination travels through supply ducts faster than in less humid South Florida ZIP codes closer to Biscayne Bay’s moderating sea breezes.

Commercial quotes depend on system size and access, but most small professional buildings in the Sunset Drive corridor fall between $800-$1,400.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Sunset
Sunset’s 33173 ZIP sits in one of the highest ambient-humidity corridors in any U.S. metro, with relative humidity averaging 85% year-round due to its proximity to the Everglades drainage basin. Flex-duct systems in unconditioned attics never get a seasonal dry-out period, so mold colonization inside ductwork is a continuous baseline condition rather than a seasonal risk. In drier markets like Phoenix or Las Vegas, ducts might see dangerous microbial growth only during monsoon season; here, it’s a year-round reality that accelerates with every minor duct leak. Call (844) 685-6342 for a free estimate and camera inspection.
Cleaning restores airflow and removes buildup, but original 1970s fiberglass flex-duct in Sunset homes often has separated boots and deteriorating insulation that cleaning alone won’t fix. On a Kendall Drive ranch off SW 68th Street, our crew found original 1970s fiberglass flex-duct with separated boots at ceiling registers pulling in attic air laden with mold spores. Using a Rotobrush system and re-sealing every boot connection, we restored airflow and removed the microbial contamination that a simple vent cleaning would have missed. We assess boot condition during our video inspection and will show you what we find. Call (844) 685-6342 to schedule.
Yes. Our camera inspection clearly reveals separated boots, gaps between duct and register, and moisture staining that indicates active air leakage. In Sunset’s 33173 homes, we find boot separation in roughly half the houses built before 1990. The camera record becomes part of your job documentation, and we review it with you before recommending any additional sealing work. Call (844) 685-6342 to book an inspection.
Very likely. Florida Room and screen-enclosure additions in Sunset’s 1970s-1980s housing stock were often served by DIY-grade flex-duct extensions with unsupported sag runs and unsealed connections. These extensions create condensation hotspots in Sunset’s persistent humidity, making them common locations for mold colonization that spreads to the main duct system. Our full system inspection includes these add-on runs. Call (844) 685-6342 for an assessment.
Given Sunset’s unique humidity profile, we recommend every 3-4 years for homes with well-maintained systems, and every 2-3 years for houses with original 1970s-1980s flex-duct or any history of microbial growth. Homes with Florida Room additions, recent water intrusion, or visible vent discoloration should be inspected annually. The $89 Seasonal Tune-Up includes a basic duct assessment that can catch problems early. Call (844) 685-6342 to set up a schedule that fits your home.
