Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

AfterFast, Reliable HVAC Cleaning Across Schertz
HVAC cleaning in Schertz typically costs $425-$780 for a full system, including evaporator coil cleaning, blower cleaning, and air handler service. Most jobs are booked within 3-5 business days, not because we’re slow, but because we photograph every duct run before and after and write the price down before a single panel comes off. If you own a home in Crossvine, The Villages of Schertz, or along Roy Richard Drive built between 2000 and 2015, your system is at the exact age where builder-grade flex duct starts holding construction debris and caliche dust. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll tell you what it costs before we schedule anything.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Is Schertz’s Preferred HVAC Cleaning Company
Schertz has a specific kind of housing stock. Thousands of homes went up fast during the 2000s boom, and most of them share the same problem: flex duct stapled in a hurry, sagging at mid-span in attics that hit 130°F every August. Our technicians know to look for those sag points first because we’ve seen them in Fairways at Scenic Hills, along Borgfeld Road, and in nearly every production build we’ve cleaned in Guadalupe County. No national call-center script teaches that. Walking attics here does.
Our HVAC Cleaning crews run Rotobrush and Nikro negative-pressure equipment, not shop-vac attachments, and every homeowner gets the before-and-after photo record as a standard deliverable. That’s been our practice since our first job in 2013, and it’s why readers of this page in Schertz can check our claims against what the camera shows. We don’t ask you to trust us. We show you the inside of your ducts.
Tomas Reyes, who leads our teams, writes the warranty language on every Schertz job himself: if it’s not done right, we make it right, in writing, for 365 days. No manager approval required. That’s the Haven Standard, clause one.
Our HVAC Cleaning Services in Schertz
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
A dirty evaporator coil in a Schertz home is a humidity problem as much as an airflow problem. Your system cycles Gulf air 8-10 months a year, and a coated coil can’t pull latent heat efficiently, so your house stays sticky at 74°F while the unit runs constantly. Evaporator coil cleaning in Schertz runs $225-$385 as a standalone service, and we use a commercial coil cleaner that cuts the biofilm without eating the fins. We photograph the coil before and after, and you keep the photos.
Blower Cleaning
The blower wheel is where caliche dust and drywall grit accumulate fastest in Schertz homes. A wheel caked with debris moves less air at every speed, which means the rooms at the end of the longest duct runs never quite cool. Blower cleaning in Schertz typically runs $180-$275, and we remove the blower assembly to clean the wheel properly rather than blowing compressed air through a running unit and hoping for the best. That’s what a filter never catches.
Condenser Cleaning
Your outdoor condenser in Schertz sits in limestone dust from ongoing construction and whatever the wind carries off I-35. The coil fins clog, head pressure climbs, and the compressor works harder than it should. Condenser cleaning in Schertz runs $150-$230, including fin combing and a coil condition report. If we find damage from hail or corrosion, we document it and put the repair number in writing before you decide anything.
Air Handler Cleaning
Air handler cleaning in Schertz matters more than in dryer climates because the condensate pan and cabinet interior stay damp for months on end. That’s where microbial growth starts, and it’s what pushes odors into the supply air. Air handler cleaning runs $250-$400 depending on access and the amount of biological material present. We sanitize the pan, clean the coil and cabinet, and treat the surfaces with a antimicrobial product. The photo record covers every step.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Schertz
We service whatever you have, but we see a lot of Carrier, Trane, Lennox, and Goodman in Schertz tract homes, with Honeywell controls on most of them. Our techs keep Guardsman coil treatment and Rotobrush HEPA extraction units on every truck that rolls into Schertz, so we’re not running back to San Antonio for anything standard. For HVAC Cleaning in Schertz, parts and treatment chemicals arrive with the crew, not three days later.
Common HVAC Cleaning Problems We See in Schertz Homes
- Builder-spec flex duct sagging at mid-span. In 2000s production builds across Schertz, staples pull loose in attic heat and the duct droops between supports. Every low point becomes a debris trap that no filter ever sees.
- Construction dust left in ducts at handover. Builders rarely perform a post-construction clean to NADCA standards. We routinely pull drywall mud, sawdust, paint stir sticks, and cut zip ties out of duct runs in homes less than five years old.
- Caliche limestone dust infiltration. Ongoing development around Schertz kicks up fine caliche that gets pulled into return ducts. It settles in the blower wheel and evaporator coil, cutting airflow and efficiency long before you notice it on furniture.
- Zero maintenance history from prior owners. Military family turnover near JBSA-Randolph means homes change hands frequently. New owners inherit duct systems that may never have been cleaned once, and the first sign is usually uneven cooling in the back bedrooms.
Last month, our crew ran a negative-pressure source removal on a 2014 build in The Villages of Schertz where the original flex duct had pulled loose from its builder staples in three separate attic runs. The sag points held drywall dust, a dropped paint stir stick, and enough caliche grit to cut airflow by nearly a third. We re-supported the runs, treated the evaporator coil with our coil cleaner, and left the homeowner with HEPA-filtered supply and return ducts that finally moved air the way the plan called for.

FAQs - HVAC Cleaning in Schertz
You don’t, unless someone left a receipt. But the camera will tell us in about ten minutes. We run a Rotobrush inspection scope into your supply and return plenums before any cleaning starts, and we’ll show you exactly what’s sitting in the duct runs. If the first owners never cleaned, you’ll see construction debris, caliche dust, and likely a sagging flex run or two. The written photo record we deliver at the end becomes the maintenance baseline for however long you own the home. Call (806) 606-6902 to schedule an inspection.
Yes, and it’s more common than most builders will admit. Post-construction duct cleaning to NADCA standards is rare in production builds; most crews sweep the visible dust and call it done. We often pull drywall mud, sawdust, and insulation fragments out of ducts in Schertz homes that have never had a single occupant. The best time to clean is before furniture and rugs start competing with the return air for dust. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll quote the job before you unpack another box.
That pattern almost always points to a sagging or partially collapsed flex duct in the attic, and it’s the single most common issue we find in 2000s-era Schertz homes. Builder staples let go in attic heat, the duct droops at mid-span, and the debris it collected becomes a choke point. Rooms at the end of the longest runs suffer first. We re-support the affected runs, then clean the full system so the airflow is even across registers. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll find the sag with a camera, not a guess.
Caliche limestone dust is extremely fine, so it bypasses most standard fiberglass filters and settles in the blower wheel, evaporator coil, and low points of flex duct. It attracts moisture and binds with other debris to form a paste that’s tough to remove without professional negative-pressure extraction. Left alone, it cuts airflow and makes the coil work like an insulating blanket rather than a heat exchanger. In Schertz, ongoing development means this dust is a chronic condition, not a one-time event. Call (806) 606-6902 for a system check if you’re near any active construction.
No, provided the cleaning uses negative-pressure source removal rather than aggressive brush systems. Flex duct from the 2000s has a plastic liner that holds up fine to HEPA vacuum extraction when done correctly. We clean at safe negative pressures and inspect every run before and after. If any run is too degraded to clean without damage, we’ll photograph it and quote the repair as a separate, written line item before touching anything. We don’t create problems to sell repairs. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll walk you through what your specific ducts can handle.
