Air Duct Cleaning in San Antonio, TX

• You can see dust or debris blowing out of supply vents
• Dust returns to furniture soon after cleaning
• You recently finished a remodel or construction project
• You moved into a home and do not know when the ducts were last cleaned
• There are signs of pests or rodents in the duct system
• A musty smell comes from the vents when the system starts

We inspect the supply and return ducts first and show you what we find. If cleaning is needed, we protect your floors and furniture, seal off the vents, and use negative-pressure equipment to pull debris out of the system instead of pushing it into your home. We clean the registers and return grilles and replace the filter before we leave.

Dirty ducts are often a symptom of another problem, such as leaky return ducts pulling attic dust into the system or a filter that does not fit its slot. While we are on site we look for those causes, so the ducts stay clean longer. If your ducts are torn, crushed or poorly insulated, we can also handle ductwork repair and sealing.

You can verify our license on the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation website: TACLB27872E.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency advises cleaning air ducts only as needed, not as routine maintenance. Air duct cleaning may be worth it when:

• You can see substantial mold growth inside ducts or on HVAC components
• There are signs of insects or rodents in the ductwork
• Ducts are clogged with dust and debris, or particles blow out of the supply registers
• You have finished a remodel that left construction dust in the system
• You moved into a home and have no record of the ducts being cleaned

If none of these apply, we will tell you, and we may recommend a better filter or a duct inspection instead.

1. Inspection of supply and return ducts, registers and the air handler
2. Negative-pressure cleaning to pull debris out of the duct system
3. Cleaning of registers, grilles and accessible blower components
4. A check for leaks, crushed sections and loose connections
5. A filter check and recommendations for your system

Cleaning removes what is inside the ducts. It does not fix leaks, crushed sections or poor design. In many San Antonio homes, attic ductwork loses cooled air through gaps and loose connections, which cleaning will not solve. If we find damage during air duct cleaning, we will show you and explain your options for ductwork repair.

• Be careful with very low “whole house” prices that grow once the crew arrives
• Ask whether the company will show you before-and-after photos
• Avoid companies that push chemical treatments without a clear reason
• Choose a licensed HVAC contractor who can also inspect the system itself

• Change your air filter every one to two months during cooling season
• Keep return grilles clear of furniture and rugs
• Schedule regular HVAC maintenance so the blower and coil stay clean
• Seal attic and garage duct leaks that pull in dust
