Why Bellows Air Duct & Vent Co. Is Calabasas’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
Ray Castillo founded Bellows Air Duct & Vent Co. in 1984 on a simple principle: one honest price, shown before we start, and work we stand behind with no paperwork and no arguing. That 90-Day Done Right Promise is stamped on every job we do in Calabasas, whether it’s a seasonal tune-up in a Mountain View Estates townhome or a full system cleaning after wildfire season.
Our reputation here is built on showing up. Not an app. Not a voicemail. A live person answers our phones at 2 PM or 2 AM. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, and every job gets camera-inspected before and after. Calabasas homeowners have told us for years that this matters more than a coupon.
We understand the local response patterns, too. Traffic on the 101, the winding canyon roads off Las Virgenes, and the gated entry protocols in communities like The Oaks are familiar territory. We plan for it. Most Calabasas appointments are completed in a single visit because our trucks carry Rotobrush and Abatement Technologies equipment, plus the camera systems to verify the work on site.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Calabasas
Residential Duct Cleaning
Calabasas homes are different. The typical house here spans 3,000-6,000+ square feet with multi-zone HVAC systems and extensive flex-duct runs through attics and crawlspaces. That scale means more surface area collecting debris, and more return-air pathways pulling in outdoor particulates. Our residential cleaning targets the full network, from main trunks to branch lines, using Rotobrush agitation with HEPA containment. We clean homes in The Oaks, Calabasas Park Estates, and throughout the 91302 and 91372 ZIP codes.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Businesses near the 101 Freeway interchange and along Agoura Road face a specific challenge: constant vehicle particulate loading combined with Santa Ana wind events that drive fine dust through rooftop intakes. Our commercial crews work after hours when needed, with equipment scaled to larger buildings. We handle office parks, medical suites, and retail spaces with the same upfront pricing and camera verification as our residential jobs.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts push conditioned air into your living spaces. In Calabasas, these lines often run through unconditioned attics where summer temperatures exceed 140°F, baking accumulated debris onto duct walls. After the Woolsey Fire, we found that smoke particulates had bonded to supply duct interiors in homes that were never directly threatened. Our supply duct cleaning uses mechanical agitation and negative air pressure to remove material that standard filter changes cannot touch.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts are the intake side, and in Calabasas they work overtime. Santa Ana winds funnel chaparral pollen, road dust from the 101, and wildfire ash directly into these pathways. Large homes have multiple return grilles and lengthy trunk lines that accumulate debris out of sight. We camera-inspect every return run before cleaning, so you see what we see.
Full System Cleaning
This is our most comprehensive service for Calabasas properties. We clean supply ducts, return ducts, main trunks, branch lines, and register boots in one coordinated visit. For multi-zone systems common in Calabasas Park Estates and Mountain View Estates, we isolate and clean each zone sequentially to prevent cross-contamination. Most full system cleanings take 4-6 hours and are completed in a single day.
Video Inspection
Every job starts and ends with video. Our technicians feed high-resolution cameras through your ductwork to document condition before work begins and verify results after. In Calabasas, this has proven especially valuable for homeowners concerned about residual Woolsey Fire contamination. The footage doesn’t lie. You’ll see exactly what was in your ducts and exactly what we removed.

This means no waiting for parts, no return trips, and no surprises on the bill.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Calabasas Homes
- Woolsey Fire residue in “unaffected” homes. Homeowners in The Oaks and Calabasas Park Estates often believe their ducts are clean because their property was not directly burned. In reality, the sustained smoke plume that hung over Calabasas for days in November 2018 was pulled through running HVAC systems, baking particulates onto duct walls that standard filter changes never reached.
- Santa Ana wind particulate loading. These dry, high-velocity wind events funnel concentrated chaparral pollen and road dust through the Las Virgenes corridor multiple times per year, overwhelming standard filters and embedding fine debris in attic flex-duct runs.
- Hidden contamination in large multi-zone systems. The 3,000-6,000+ sq ft homes common in Calabasas have extensive duct networks with long attic runs that escape visual inspection. Ash deposits from 2018 can sit undisturbed for years, recirculating when the system cycles.
- Remodeling debris in high-end properties. Frequent renovation work in gated Calabasas enclaves introduces construction dust into return pathways, compounding existing wildfire contamination with fresh particulate loads.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Calabasas, CA
A typical residential duct cleaning in Calabasas runs $450-$650 for homes under 3,500 square feet with a single HVAC system. Larger properties in The Oaks or Mountain View Estates, with multi-zone systems and extensive duct runs, typically range from $750-$950. Commercial duct cleaning for offices and retail near the 101 starts around $1,200 and scales with system complexity.
What moves the number: square footage, number of HVAC zones, accessibility of attic ductwork, and contamination severity. Woolsey Fire residue removal requires additional HEPA containment and negative air setup, which we quote upfront. No bait coupons. No price changes at the door.
We offer a permanent 5% Senior and Veteran discount, plus our $89 Seasonal Tune-Up for systems that need inspection and light maintenance rather than full cleaning. Every estimate is free. Call (844) 685-6342.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Calabasas
Yes. The sustained smoke plume that hung over Calabasas for days in November 2018 was drawn into running HVAC systems across the city, including gated communities like The Oaks that were never directly threatened. We have camera footage from homes in your neighborhood showing grey-brown ash film baked onto duct walls years after the fire. Call (844) 685-6342 for a free video inspection and we’ll show you exactly what’s in your system.
Santa Ana winds drive concentrated loads of chaparral pollen, fine dust, and wildfire particulates through the Las Virgenes corridor directly into your HVAC intake system, overwhelming standard filters and embedding debris in attic flex-duct runs multiple times per year. This is a chronic maintenance issue for Mountain View Estates homes that filter changes alone cannot address. A full system cleaning with HEPA containment removes accumulated material and restores designed airflow.
We use Rotobrush mechanical agitation with HEPA filtration, paired with Abatement Technologies negative air machines for containment, specifically sized for the extended duct runs and multiple zones in Calabasas Park Estates homes. Each zone is isolated and cleaned sequentially to prevent cross-contamination. Most 4,000-6,000 sq ft properties are completed in a single 4-6 hour visit.
Yes. Our high-resolution camera systems document the interior condition of supply ducts with clarity sufficient to identify ash deposits, particulate film, and contamination patterns characteristic of wildfire smoke exposure. We provide before-and-after footage for every job. If you’re concerned about residual 2018 contamination, request a standalone video inspection for a clear assessment of your supply duct condition.
Yes. Businesses near the 101 Freeway interchange face elevated particulate loading from vehicle traffic compounded by Santa Ana wind events that drive fine dust through rooftop HVAC intakes. Our commercial crews use larger-capacity Nikro HEPA vacuums and extended-reach equipment for bigger ductwork, with scheduling flexibility for after-hours work to minimize business disruption. Upfront pricing and camera verification apply to commercial jobs exactly as they do for residential.
