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 Air Duct Cleaning Across Tualatin
Air duct cleaning in Tualatin typically runs $380-$690 for a full system on a 1,500-2,500 sq ft home, with most jobs completed in 4-7 hours. The price holds before work starts because we write it down first, under Haven Standard Clause 1. No per-vent pricing, no add-ons discovered after a panel comes off. If you live near the Tualatin River corridor, along Boones Ferry Road, or in subdivisions off Sagert Street, you already know the valley floor traps damp air that changes how fast contamination builds inside ductwork. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll give you a written number before anyone touches a register.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Is Tualatin’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
CleanRun has been documenting the inside of duct runs with cameras since 2013. What that means for a Tualatin homeowner is straightforward: you see the before photo, you see the after photo, and you get both as part of your job record. We built the company on the premise that a written price and photographed evidence matter more than a friendly van wrap. Every one of our 52,000+ completed jobs ended with the same two deliverables: a written price agreed before work began and a documented photo record of the work actually performed.
Our crews work in Tualatin regularly, not occasionally. That means the tech who arrives at your door in the Ibach neighborhood or up near the Tualatin Country Club already knows what the valley floor’s winter inversions do to supply duct runs and return boots. Tomas Reyes, our owner, sets the standard for every job: background-checked, uniformed technicians identified by name before arrival, operating under the H.A.V.E.N. Standard. We don’t send a salesperson with a clipboard. We send a technician with a camera.
Our Air Duct Cleaning Services in Tualatin
Residential Duct Cleaning
Full system cleaning for houses and townhomes across Tualatin. We pull the registers, clean each supply and return run under HEPA-filtered negative pressure, and photograph every section the camera can reach. For a 1970s ranch off Sagert Street or a 1990s two-story near the high school, the work is the same: source removal, not blowing debris further into the system.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Offices, retail spaces, and property management work throughout Tualatin’s commercial corridors, including the Nyberg Road and Lower Boones Ferry areas. We schedule around business hours where possible and deliver the same written scope and photo record we provide on homes. Building owners get documentation their tenants can rely on.
Supply Duct Cleaning
The supply side is where the nursery pollen and inversion-season damp air leave their mark first. We remove each register, clean the full run to the plenum, and photograph the elbow points where debris accumulates. In Tualatin, supply ducts in crawl-space homes near the river often carry biological growth at the lowest runs; this is the exact condition a camera inspection confirms or rules out.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return runs pull air from living spaces back to the air handler. When returns are dirty, the entire system recontaminates faster. We clean return boots, runs, and the return plenum, then document the after condition. For homes near the Tualatin River floodplain where crawl-space moisture rises into duct boots, return cleaning and source removal often prevent a much larger replacement bill.
We also perform Air Duct Cleaning work that includes video inspection as a standard part of full system cleaning. If you’re not sure whether cleaning will solve the problem or replacement is required, the camera answer is the only answer we trust.

Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Tualatin Homes
- Biological growth at the lowest flex-duct runs. In crawl-space homes near the Tualatin River, the water table keeps the space under the house damp even in August. Duct boots at the lowest point of the system pull that moisture in, and condensation inside the duct promotes growth that a register-only cleaning never touches.
- Nursery and greenhouse pollen loading. Washington County’s nursery operations enclose Tualatin rather than sitting upwind of it. Winter inversions hold that particulate load at the valley floor, so HVAC intakes pull in heavier pollen and mold spore volumes than elevated suburbs like Lake Oswego or Sherwood experience.
- Deteriorating fiberglass-lined flex duct. Homes built in the mid-1970s through early 1990s often have flex duct with interior fiberglass liners breaking down. Cleaning can remove surface debris, but it cannot repair embedded moisture damage. Our camera inspection distinguishes those conditions before work starts.
- Post-flood confusion between cleanable and replaceable. After a flood event near Nyberg Road or the river floodplain, homeowners often get told two different things by two different contractors. CleanRun provides the documentation that shows which is correct, so you don’t pay for a replacement you didn’t need or a cleaning that won’t hold.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Tualatin, OR
A straightforward full-system cleaning for a Tualatin home between 1,500 and 2,500 square feet runs $380-$690. Smaller condos and single-story homes with fewer duct runs come in lower, typically $280-$380. Larger properties or systems with extensive biological growth - especially those near the river corridor with crawl-space contamination - can reach $800 or more, but you’ll know that number in writing before any work begins. We don’t quote per vent, and we don’t hold a low teaser price that inflates once the tech has a look at the system. You get one flat price per system, agreed before the first panel comes off. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll put a written number in front of you.

FAQs - Air Duct Cleaning in Tualatin
The inversion season from October through April keeps damp, cold air trapped on the valley floor, which drives indoor humidity up and condensation inside ductwork. If the contamination is surface-level biological growth on cleanable metal duct, HEPA-filtered cleaning resolves it. If moisture has embedded into fiberglass-lined flex duct, cleaning won’t fix the underlying condition, and our camera documentation will show exactly that. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written assessment.
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Flex duct with floodwater exposure often wicks moisture into the insulation layer, where it cannot be cleaned away. If the camera inspection shows surface contamination only, we clean and document it. If the insulation is waterlogged, we write and photograph the replacement recommendation so your insurer can see the evidence directly.
Tualatin’s high water table keeps crawl spaces damp year-round, and the lowest duct boots sit in that moisture. Condensation forms inside the boots, and biological growth follows. We see this most often along the Nyberg Road corridor and subdivisions near the river floodplain. Full system cleaning addresses the boots and the runs, not just the registers.
Tualatin sits inside Washington County’s nursery belt, historically one of the highest nursery-crop-producing regions in the country. Greenhouse and field operations release pollen and mold spores that settle into the valley’s stagnant air during inversions. Your HVAC intake draws that particulate load in, and it accumulates in duct runs faster than in elevated suburbs like Lake Oswego, where drainage and airflow differ.
We deliver a written scope of work, pre- and post-cleaning camera inspection stills for every accessible duct run, and a written assessment stating whether cleaning is sufficient or replacement is necessary. This is the documentation insurers accept because it shows the condition directly rather than just telling a story. Call (806) 606-6902 and ask about our Documented Photo Record, included on every visit.
