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 Hurst
HVAC cleaning in Hurst typically costs $380-$850 for a full system, depending on how much of your ductwork and coil surface has been neglected since the house was built. Most Hurst homes we service sit in neighborhoods that went up between the late 1950s and mid-1970s, and a lot of that original ductwork has never been touched. That’s not a sales line. It’s what our camera shows before we start. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price on your system, no exceptions and no vague ballparking over the phone.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Is the HVAC Cleaning Team Hurst Homeowners Call
We’re independently owned and operated under the Haven Standard, which means one thing in practice: every Hurst job starts with a written price delivered before the first panel comes off. No technician shows up and “finds” problems that weren’t discussed. Tomas Reyes, our owner, built CleanRun in 2013 around a simple rule: if you can’t photograph it, don’t claim it. That’s why every visit ends with a Documented Photo Record of the inside of every duct run we service, before and after, delivered to you as a standard part of the job record.
Hurst homeowners tend to research before they call, and that suits us. We’d rather show you the photo of a 1970 return boot pulled apart from slab movement than describe it. The 365-Day Done Right Promise means if the work isn’t right, we make it right, in writing, not as a slogan but as a clause in your job record. We’re not a franchise operation running a van route through twenty North Texas suburbs. We coordinate scheduling from our Dallas-Fort Worth office and our crews know Hurst neighborhoods by name, from the ranch houses off Harwood Road to the split-levels south of Pipeline Road.
Our HVAC Cleaning Services in Hurst
HVAC cleaning means more than ducts. The system that moves air through your Hurst home includes the coil, blower, air handler, and condenser. Dirty ductwork with a clean coil just recirculates filtered air through dirty channels. Here’s what we actually do:
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
In Hurst’s long cooling season, your evaporator coil runs wet for months. That moisture catches pollen from mountain cedar in winter and oak in spring, then bakes into a film during the 140°F attic afternoons. A fouled coil costs you cooling capacity every hour it runs. We clean it with professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, and we photograph the coil before and after so you can see the difference in heat transfer surface, not just hear about it.
Blower Cleaning
The blower wheel is where the air actually moves. In homes around Hurst’s older subdivisions, a blower that’s been pulling attic dust for four decades can lose 15-20% of its airflow simply from blade buildup. That’s uneven cooling, longer run times, and higher bills. We remove the blower assembly, clean the wheel and housing, and document the work with photos.
Condenser Cleaning
Your outdoor condenser sits in Tarrant County weather all year: hot sun, wind-driven soil, cottonwood in the spring. A clogged condenser coil makes the whole system work harder. We clean the condenser fins on every HVAC cleaning visit, and we check the line-set and disconnect for signs of wear that older Hurst systems commonly show.
Air Handler Cleaning
The air handler is the box that houses the blower and coil, and in Hurst’s slab-foundation ranch homes, it’s often in a hall closet or the attic. We open it, clean the interior surfaces, check the condensate pan and drain line (a clogged line on a hot July afternoon in a Hurst home is a flooded closet waiting to happen), and apply coil treatment where needed. Every step gets photographed.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Hurst
Hurricane-force attic heat doesn’t discriminate by brand, but the way systems fail does. We work on everything from Honeywell and Aprilaire filtration setups to Guardsman and Abatement Technologies air-quality add-ons commonly installed in Hurst’s mid-century homes. Because we service the whole system, not just the ducts, we keep a running inventory of common replacement parts for the coil housings, drain pans, and plenum accessories we see most in Hurst. That means when we open a 1968 air handler and find a cracked drain pan, we’re not telling you we’ll “call around and get back to you.” We can usually address it same visit, same written scope.
Common HVAC Cleaning Problems We See in Hurst Homes
- Degraded duct-board liner. Hurst’s original 1960s fiberglass duct board sheds its interior facing after decades in hot attics. The result is fiberglass particles in the airstream and on your vent grilles. We see this in nearly every pre-1975 home we open.
- Return boot separation from slab movement. Tarrant County’s expansive black-clay soil doesn’t just crack sidewalks; it shifts foundations by fractions of an inch. That’s enough to open gaps at return boots, pulling 140°F attic air and loose insulation directly into your return side. Cleaning alone won’t fix that. Sealing will.
- Collapsed or disconnected flex runs. First-generation flex duct from the 1960s and 70s degrades, collapses, or pulls apart at joints. A run that’s disconnected in the attic means one bedroom gets nothing while the thermostat screams for more cooling.
- Condensation-driven mold on duct-board insulation. Hurst’s high summer humidity creates condensation cycles inside attic-run ducts. When that moisture hits degraded duct-board insulation, it promotes biological growth. Our source removal process with HEPA-filtered negative pressure addresses this at the surface level, and we document every step.
Pricing for HVAC Cleaning in Hurst, TX
Here’s the honest range for Hurst’s market:
- Basic HVAC cleaning, single system, modest buildup: $380-$520
- Full HVAC cleaning with coil treatment and air handler service: $550-$720
- Full HVAC cleaning plus sealing of return boots and minor duct repair: $650-$850
What moves the price is access, system age, and how much of the ductwork has reached a point where cleaning alone isn’t the right answer. A 1965 ranch on Harwood Road with original duct board and separated return boots is a different job than a 2005 home off Norwood Drive. You get one written price, delivery of the full scope before anything starts, and no per-vent upcharging. That’s Haven Standard Clause 1. If a competitor gives you a written estimate, bring it to us. We’ll put our number next to theirs, in writing, at no cost. Call (806) 606-6902.

FAQs - HVAC Cleaning in Hurst
A basic cleaning addresses surface debris in the duct runs themselves. What Hurst’s older homes often need is sealing: return boots that have separated from slab movement, collapsed flex runs, and degraded duct-board liner that keeps shedding particles even after cleaning. That’s why our written scope for a 1968 home will sometimes include duct repair and sealing as a separate line item. It’s not an upsell. It’s what the camera shows.
Expansive clay soil expands when wet and shrinks when dry, which moves slab foundations by fractions of an inch over decades. That movement opens gaps at return boots, especially in the post-WWII slab-foundation ranch homes that dominate Hurst. Those gaps pull unfiltered attic air into your system, which means more dust on your registers and a shorter life for your filter. Cleaning the ducts is part of the fix, but sealing those gaps is what stops the problem at the source. Call (806) 606-6902 and ask for a written scope that includes sealing.
Off Precinct Line Road, our tech opened a 1972 ranch-style home’s attic return and found the original fiberglass duct board shedding its interior facing into the airstream. The return boot had separated from the slab, pulling attic dust and insulation directly into the system. We performed source removal with HEPA-filtered negative pressure, then sealed the gap, restoring proper pressure and cutting attic dust pull-in. That’s not a rare find in Hurst; it’s the modal find.
Hurst’s residential build-out happened almost entirely between the late 1950s and mid-1970s. That means most systems are 45-70 years old, often with original fiberglass duct board and first-generation flex duct. Newer suburbs at the DFW fringe have systems that are 10-20 years old with modern duct materials. The accumulation timeline in Hurst is three times longer, and the materials themselves degrade differently under Tarrant County’s attic heat.
Cleaning removes the built-up particulate load, but if the duct-board liner has degraded to the point where it’s actively shedding, the permanent fix is sealing or replacing that section. We’ll show you the photo of the degraded liner, give you a written price for the fix, and let you decide. No pressure, no technician standing in your hallway with a clipboard and a sliding scale. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written price on your system.
