Hollis Air Duct Henderson works on base and in the surrounding Nellis AFB community every week. We understand the access procedures, the noise restrictions near flight operations, and the fact that base housing maintenance cycles don’t wait. The trucks carry professional-grade Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines. Every job gets a written price before work starts, every technician is background-checked and uniformed, and every job is backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.
Why Hollis Air Duct Henderson Is Nellis AFB’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’re not the cheapest bid in Nellis AFB, and we won’t pretend to be. We compete on showing up inside the quoted window, pricing the job before the first tool comes off the truck, and standing behind the work for a full year. Roy Castellanos runs the operation with a simple standard: if it’s not done right, we make it right at no charge. That’s not a slogan. It’s written on every invoice.
Homeowners in Capehart and Wherry housing call us because they’ve been burned before. A crew quoted one number, showed up and found “problems,” and the price tripled once the van was parked in the driveway. That doesn’t happen with us. The price is written down before we touch anything. It does not move at the door. And if a housing inspector flags something after we’ve cleaned, we come back free within 365 days. Call (775) 383-5847 and a live person answers, day or night.
Our crews know the mid-century duct systems on base. We’ve worked in 1950s-1960s ranchers with original galvanized ductwork, underneath-slab return runs, and decades of fine Mojave silt packed into every bend. That local experience matters when you’re staring down a move-out date.
Styles & brands we work with
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Nellis AFB
Commercial Air Duct Cleaning in Nellis AFB means cleaning the HVAC systems that serve the base’s administrative buildings, support facilities, classrooms, and common areas. These systems run almost continuously during summer months, pulling in the same fine desert dust that fills residential ducts, but at a much higher volume. Commercial jobs in Nellis AFB typically run $1,800 – $5,000 depending on square footage, duct configuration, and the number of rooftop units involved. The written price covers the entire system before we begin.
For commercial work on base, access coordination and security clearances add a layer of scheduling discipline. Our crews arrive prepared, with documentation ready, and we schedule around flight operation noise windows so work doesn’t stall mid-job.
Building Maintenance and Move-Out Compliance
Many base facilities maintain strict HVAC cleanliness documentation. We provide before and after video inspection so you can show exactly what was found and what was removed. That record matters when maintenance budgets get reviewed or when a facility changes hands.
High Volume System Restoration
When a commercial system hasn’t been cleaned in years, the dust load isn’t just unsightly, it’s a measurable airflow restriction. We use negative-air containment systems to pull debris out without circulating it through occupied areas, and we seal access points afterward so the system runs tight.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Nellis AFB
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Nellis AFB cover the full range: residential duct cleaning, supply and return duct cleaning, full system cleaning, and video inspection. A typical residential full system cleaning in Nellis AFB runs $350 – $600 on base housing, depending on the number of returns and the condition of the ductwork. That’s the honest range. We give you a written number before we start, and that number holds.
The process uses a negative-air machine connected to the duct system, which puts the ducts under negative pressure while rotary brush agitation dislodges debris from the walls. It’s the same principle commercial crews use on large facilities, sized for residential ductwork. For homes with brittle 1950s-1970s ducting, we adjust the agitation speed and inspect first with a camera so we don’t damage aging materials.
Full System Cleaning
Supply and return ducts, registers, the air handler, and the blower compartment. We clean it as a complete system, not just the runs you can see. The return side is often the worst offender in Nellis AFB homes because it pulls unfiltered air from living spaces, including whatever the dog dragged in and whatever the desert blew through the windows.
Video Inspection
Before we clean, we send a camera through the ducts. We’re looking for crushed runs, disconnected joints, and the kind of debris that a brush alone won’t remove. If we find a collapsed return under the slab, you’ll see it on screen before we recommend a repair plan.

Trusted Brands We Service in Nellis AFB
We work with the equipment that’s already in your home, not against it. Our crews service systems built around Honeywell and Aprilaire filtration components, and we use Rotobrush rotary brush systems and Nikro negative-air machines for source removal cleaning. If your Nellis AFB home has an older Aprilaire filter housing that needs attention during the clean, we’ll show you what we found and what it takes to get it right. For Nellis AFB customers, we keep common replacement filters and sealants stocked in the truck so a simple fix doesn’t turn into a second appointment.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Nellis AFB Homes
- Fine Mojave silt packed into return runs. This dust is finer than typical household dust and settles deep in ductwork. It’s often the first thing housing inspectors look for during move-out.
- Crushed or disconnected runs under slab foundations. Many 1950s-1970s base homes have ductwork running under the slab. Decades of settling crushes these runs, and a standard cleaning without camera inspection misses the real airflow failure.
- Inadequate or missing sealing on supply plenums. Air leaks in the duct system pull unfiltered attic air into your living space, which is how dust reappears on furniture days after a cleaning. Sealing is often the actual fix.
- Clogged blower wheels and evaporator coils. Continuous summer operation in Nellis AFB means the blower never rests. Dust builds up on the blower wheel until airflow drops, and the system runs longer to hit the same temperature.

AfterPricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Nellis AFB, NV
A full residential duct cleaning in Nellis AFB runs $350 – $600 for most base homes. Supply-only or return-only jobs run $175 – $300. Video inspection adds $75 – $150. Duct sealing, if required, typically runs $400 – $900 depending on access and how many leaks we find. Commercial systems on base run $1,800 – $5,000. Every number is written down before work starts, and it does not move at the door. Call (775) 383-5847 for a free estimate.
What affects the price: the number of returns in the home, whether ductwork is accessible from a crawlspace or attic, and whether the system has been sealed previously. If you’re in one of the older Capehart ranchers with original ductwork, expect the cleaning itself to be straightforward but the inspection to reveal more issues than a newer home.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Nellis AFB
Yes. Housing inspections on Nellis AFB treat duct cleanliness as a chargeable move-out item, and inspectors do check. The fine Mojave silt that accumulates in base housing ducts is one of the first things they look for because it’s visible evidence of deferred maintenance. Cleaning before your final inspection is not elective if you want to avoid a chargeback. Call (775) 383-5847 and we’ll schedule around your inspection date.
The dust on Nellis AFB is finer and more pervasive than what you see in most Las Vegas neighborhoods. Constant wind brings sand and silt from the dry lake beds and open desert, and it infiltrates duct systems year-round. The dust particles are small enough to stay suspended and work their way past basic filters, settling into return runs and the blower compartment. A standard cleaning removes it; sealing the duct system keeps it from coming back within months.
Yes, but only with the right approach. We send a camera through the duct system before we start to assess the condition. Older galvanized ductwork can be brittle, especially at the joints. We run the rotary brush and negative-air system at speeds that remove the debris without tearing at the seams. If the ductwork is too fragile, we’ll tell you before we risk it, and we’ll show you the video.
In Nellis AFB, we recommend a full cleaning every 3 – 5 years for most base homes, more often if you have pets, allergies, or if you’ve done remodeling. The continuous Mojave dust load means ducts fill faster here than in greener climates. If you’re in base housing and approaching a move-out, skip the calendar and schedule based on your inspection date. Cleaning before move-out is the practical standard that protects your deposit.
It can, but only if the duct system is sealed. In Nellis AFB homes, the dust on furniture often comes from leaky return ducts pulling unfiltered air from the attic or crawlspace. Cleaning removes what’s already in the ducts. Sealing the leaks stops new dust from entering the air stream in the first place. A full cleaning combined with duct sealing usually makes the most visible difference. Call (775) 383-5847 and we’ll inspect before quoting, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
