Air duct cleaning in Lafayette typically runs $350-$650 for a standard residential system and is usually completed in a single visit with before-and-after camera verification.

We know the difference between a quick suburban job and the heavy-duty work Lafayette’s acreage properties demand. One trip. The right equipment. No callbacks. Call (844) 685-6342 for a free estimate.
Lafayette sits at the edge of Boulder County’s farm belt, and that geography shapes what we find in its ducts. The eastern subdivisions and rural properties here put real hours on their systems. Agricultural dust loads up faster. Workshop HVAC runs harder. When we schedule Lafayette, we load the truck for a full day’s work, not a quick in-and-out. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and carry Rotobrush and Nikro equipment sized for the job.
Why Bellows Air Duct & Vent Co. Is Lafayette’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been serving Colorado’s Front Range since 2012. That’s 42 years of showing up when we say we will, pricing the job before we start, and standing behind it with our 90-Day Done Right Promise. No paperwork, no arguing. If it’s not right, we make it right.
Lafayette homeowners call us because they’ve already dealt with the alternative. The coupon companies that advertise one price and invoice another. The crews that vacuum for twenty minutes and call it clean. We do the opposite. Every Lafayette job gets a camera inspection before and after, so you see what was in there and what came out. Our office answers calls 24 hours a day, live, not voicemail.
We know Lafayette’s housing stock. The 1920s bungalows near Simpson Street with original sheet-metal trunk lines. The 1980s subdivisions with flex-duct crawling through crawl spaces. The acreage properties with detached workshops and secondary HVAC systems. Each needs a different approach, and we adjust before we arrive.
Our response time to Lafayette is typically same-day or next-day. We route technicians from our Boulder County corridor schedules, so you’re not waiting for a crew to drive down from Fort Collins or up from Denver. When you call (844) 685-6342, you’ll speak to a live person who can confirm availability and give you an upfront price range.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Lafayette
Residential Duct Cleaning
Lafayette’s homes run the full spectrum, and so do our residential cleans. We serviced a 1950s bungalow near Simpson Street where the original sheet-metal trunk lines had decades of fine reddish-tan agricultural dust lodged in the branches. Using a Rotobrush and HEPA-filtered Nikro vacuum, we restored airflow while the homeowner watched the dust plume exit, proof that one dedicated trip with heavy-duty gear is all it takes. Whether you’re in a historic craftsman or a 1990s tract home off Arapahoe Road, we size the equipment to the system, not the other way around.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Lafayette’s commercial base includes light industrial shops, medical offices along South Public Road, and retail spaces in the downtown corridor. These systems accumulate particulate faster than residential, particularly when they’re pulling in agricultural dust from the farm belt east of town. We schedule commercial work to minimize disruption, often early morning or after hours, and we bring Abatement Technologies equipment built for larger static pressure and longer duct runs.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts push conditioned air into your rooms. In Lafayette’s older homes, we’ve found supply branches partially blocked by collapsed flex-duct or decades of settled dust. In newer construction, poor initial sealing lets attic or crawl-space air leak in before it ever reaches your vents. We clean supply lines with brush-and-vacuum agitation, then verify airflow improvement with visual inspection. If we find seal failures, we’ll show you on camera and quote repair before proceeding.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to your HVAC unit for reconditioning. This is where Lafayette’s unique contamination shows up most visibly. The fine reddish-tan agricultural dust from the Boulder County farm belt, blown in by Chinook winds and drawn through gaps in crawl-space chases, accumulates in return plenums faster than typical suburban dust. We’ve opened return-air systems in eastern Lafayette subdivisions where the buildup was thick enough to restrict airflow measurably. Cleaning returns restores system balance and reduces the load on your blower motor.
Full System Cleaning
For Lafayette’s acreage properties and larger homes, we recommend full system cleaning: supply and return ducts, trunk lines, plenums, and the air handler cabinet. These properties often have secondary systems in detached workshops or guest quarters that run hard and collect dust fast. One visit. One crew. Everything cleaned and camera-verified. We don’t leave until the full system is documented.
Video Inspection
Every Lafayette job starts and ends with video inspection. We run a camera through your ductwork before cleaning to show you the condition, and again after to prove the result. This matters especially in Lafayette given the Marshall Fire legacy. Smoke and ash from the December 2021 fire infiltrated HVAC systems across the city, and hidden contamination in flex-duct chases is easy to miss without visual verification. Skipping inspection after a smoke event is a mistake we’ve seen other services make. We don’t.

Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Lafayette Homes
- Marshall Fire smoke residue in flex-duct chases. The December 2021 fire drove severe wildfire smoke and ash infiltration into HVAC systems across Lafayette, even though the fire itself burned in adjacent Superior and Louisville. Homeowners who sheltered in place or returned to smoke-saturated homes still face lingering contamination in hidden duct branches that standard cleaning can miss without camera verification.
- Agricultural dust accumulation in eastern subdivisions. Lafayette’s semi-arid climate and strong Chinook winds pull fine reddish-tan dust from the active farmland east of the city. This particulate loads return-air systems faster than typical suburban dust, particularly during spring planting and fall harvest. Technicians regularly pull distinctive buildup from plenums that homeowners can see for themselves on camera.
- Rodent intrusion in crawl-space return-air chases. Crawl-space foundations are common throughout Lafayette, and gaps in return-air chases let rodents enter, nest, and contaminate ducts with droppings and debris. We find this repeatedly in homes across the city, from older neighborhoods near downtown to 1990s subdivisions.
- Duct-seal failures in 30-40-year-old tract systems. Lafayette’s 1980s and 1990s subdivisions have ductwork reaching end of functional life. Flex-duct insulation degrades. Mastic seals crack. The result is conditioned air leaking into attics and crawl spaces before it reaches your rooms, driving up utility bills and overworking equipment.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Lafayette
Wildfire smoke and ash traveled miles beyond the burn perimeter and infiltrated HVAC systems across Lafayette through intake vents, gaps in ductwork, and open windows during evacuation and return. Homeowners who sheltered in place or came back to smoke-saturated houses often have residual contamination in flex-duct chases and air handler cabinets that standard filter changes won’t remove. We recommend camera inspection to assess whether dedicated smoke remediation with HEPA sanitizing is needed. Call (844) 685-6342 to schedule, estimates are free.
That’s agricultural particulate from the Boulder County farm belt, a mix of dryland soil and grassland dust blown in by Chinook winds and drawn into your return system. It accumulates faster than typical suburban dust and is a visible sign your ducts are loading up. We’ve pulled thick deposits from return plenums in eastern Lafayette homes where airflow was measurably restricted. One thorough cleaning with brush agitation and HEPA vacuuming clears it out, and camera proof shows you the before and after. Call for a free estimate.
Yes. We regularly work on 1920s-1950s homes near the Simpson Street corridor and similar historic areas. Original sheet-metal trunk lines are actually more durable than modern flex-duct when properly maintained. We use equipment adjusted for metal ductwork, brush sizes that won’t damage seams, and inspection cameras that navigate tight branch connections. We also check for asbestos insulation on very old systems and advise accordingly before disturbing anything. Call (844) 685-6342 to discuss your specific home.
We don’t service garage doors or workshop door openers. Our work is strictly air duct, dryer vent, and HVAC system cleaning. If you need garage door service, we can refer you to a qualified local contractor. For your workshop’s ductwork or HVAC, we’re equipped for that. Call (844) 685-6342 and we’ll clarify what we can do.
We include it on every job, no exceptions. In Lafayette, this is particularly important given the Marshall Fire contamination risk and the agricultural dust patterns unique to the area. Hidden contamination in flex-duct chases, rodent debris in crawl-space returns, or smoke residue in branch lines can’t be confirmed without visual documentation. The camera protects you from paying for incomplete work and protects us from callbacks. You’ll see exactly what was there and what came out. Call (844) 685-6342 to book, estimates are free.
