In September 2026, Green Ductors cleaned the air ducts and dryer vents in three apartments in Tribeca, Lower Manhattan. The property team arranged the work for all three units in one visit.
The tenants had not reported a problem. Their dryers were still running, and the heating and cooling systems appeared to be working. During our inspection, though, we found one dryer vent almost blocked with lint. Dust and debris had also collected inside the main HVAC ductwork, beyond what anyone could see through a vent cover.
What we found inside the vents and ducts
In one apartment, lint had nearly blocked the dryer vent. The deposits had left very little space for air to pass through, even though the dryer was still in use. The photographs below show that vent before and after cleaning.
Inside the HVAC system, dust and debris had settled along the main duct. This was another area the residents could not assess from the room. We photographed the duct before cleaning and again afterward so the property team could compare its condition.
The work completed in one visit
Each apartment had its own central forced-air HVAC system and dryer exhaust. Our crew inspected and cleaned both systems in all three units. The work covered:
- Air duct cleaning for three HVAC systems. We cleaned the supply and return vents and the main ducts in each apartment.
- Dryer vent cleaning for three units. We cleaned the exhaust runs and the transition hoses behind the dryers.
The property team received one invoice for the combined work.
A photo record for the property manager
We delivered the before-and-after photographs in a digital report. The manager could keep it with the building’s maintenance records and share it with the owner or board.
We also set a 12-month service reminder for this project. It gives the property team a date to review the next visit, rather than waiting for a tenant complaint.
What this Tribeca project cost
The air duct cleaning scope covered up to 14 supply and return vents and two main ducts per HVAC system. For each dryer, the scope covered an exhaust run of up to 20 feet plus the transition hose.
For this September 2026 job, air duct cleaning was $799 per HVAC system and dryer vent cleaning was $250 per vent. The invoice covered all three apartments:
| Service | Total |
|---|---|
| Air ducts: 3 systems | $2,397 |
| Dryer vents: 3 vents | $750 |
| Job total | $3,147 + tax |
That worked out to $1,049 per apartment before tax for both services. Promotional pricing saved the client $600 on this project. These figures describe this particular order; the systems, vent routes and access at another property may call for a different scope and quote.
