Searching for air duct cleaning in Clearwater, FL? Bastion Duct Solutions is a veteran-owned, residential-focused team serving every Pinellas County ZIP — including Clearwater Beach, Sand Key, Island Estates, Belleair, and Countryside. Clearwater HVAC ductwork takes a beating from beach vacation rentals, 55+ community HVAC systems, and Gulf-side humidity-driven mold inside flex duct, which is why our local crews recommend a cleaning cycle of every 2–3 years here. Every Clearwater job uses truck-mounted negative-air HEPA vacuums, NADCA-style agitation whips, and before/after photos of every register — not the $59 shop-vac job advertised on local coupon mailers. Tampa Bay's duct cleaning market is dominated by national chains and franchise operators — Bastion is the local, residential-only, veteran-owned alternative for Clearwater and surrounding Pinellas homes.

Clearwater FAQs
How much does air duct cleaning cost in Clearwater, FL?
A standard 3-bed, 2-bath Clearwater home with one HVAC system and 10–12 vents runs $399–$549 for a complete air duct cleaning. Larger 4-bedroom homes in Clearwater Beach or other Pinellas County estate areas with two HVAC systems run $599–$899. Dryer vent cleaning is $99–$179. We give a firm written quote before any work starts — no $59 coupon bait-and-switch.
How often should air ducts be cleaned in Clearwater?
Most Clearwater homes need cleaning every 2–3 years. Coastal humidity, salt air, and 9+ months of AC runtime drive dust, mold, and biofilm buildup inside Pinellas County ductwork faster than the national NADCA average. Homes with pets, allergies, or recent renovations should stay on the shorter end.
Do you clean dryer vents in Clearwater?
Yes — dryer vent cleaning is one of our most-requested services in Clearwater. Clogged lint is the leading cause of residential dryer fires, and humid Pinellas County air makes lint stick faster. Annual cleaning is the standard recommendation; book it alone or bundle with a duct cleaning to save.
Are you licensed and insured in Clearwater, FL?
Yes — Bastion Duct Solutions is fully licensed and insured in the state of Florida, veteran-owned, and residential-focused. We can show proof of insurance and our Florida business license before any Clearwater job begins.
How long does a Clearwater duct cleaning take?
Most single-family Clearwater homes take 2–4 hours from the moment we arrive to the before/after photo handoff. Multi-system estate homes in Clearwater Beach or other large Pinellas County properties may take longer — we always confirm a firm time window before we start.
What does 'real' duct cleaning look like in Clearwater?
A real Clearwater air duct cleaning means: truck-mounted negative-air HEPA vacuum (not a shop vac), NADCA-style rotating agitation in every supply and return, optional EPA-registered antimicrobial fog for the coil, and before/after photos of every vent. If a Clearwater company quotes you under $200 without any of that gear on the truck, it's a vent vacuum — not a duct cleaning.
