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 Medina
HVAC cleaning in Medina means getting inside the system, not just waving a vacuum at a vent. For most homes here, that work runs $425-$890 depending on what we find once the panels come off. Our crews work the blocks around Medina Square, the ranch rows off Fenn Road, and the subdivisions past Reagan Parkway every week, so we know what hides in this town’s ductwork. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll give you a written price before a single panel is pulled.
Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Is Medina’s Preferred HVAC Cleaning Company
Medina’s housing stock is unlike anything a generic cleaning outfit from the outer suburbs is used to. The homes ringing the Square were built for gravity heat, not forced air. When those systems were converted, the original trunks stayed. That means odd angles, dead-end branches, and debris that a standard cleaning wand never touches. Our technicians have spent the years since 2013 learning exactly how to agitate and extract from those runs, and our photo record shows the difference.
We work under the H.A.V.E.N. Standard, which means a written price before work starts, background-checked and uniformed technicians, and a 365-Day Done Right Promise on every job. Tomas Reyes, our owner, set that policy from day one. If the work isn’t right, we make it right. No manager approval required.
Every Medina job ends with a Documented Photo Record of every duct run, inside, before and after. You see what we saw. That’s the whole point of hiring us instead of a $79 coupon crew.
Our HVAC Cleaning Services in Medina
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
In Medina, the evaporator coil takes the brunt of late-summer humidity and spring field dust. A coil matted with a season’s worth of pollen and silt won’t transfer heat, which means your AC runs longer and your electric bill climbs. We clean coils with professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush and Nikro, then treat the coil to prevent microbial buildup through the next freeze-thaw cycle.
Air Handler Cleaning
The air handler is where Medina’s lake-effect humidity condenses. Moisture collects in the cabinet, mixes with the dust pulled from retrofitted returns, and creates a paste that coats the blower wheel and housing. We open the handler, clean the blower assembly, and document the interior with photos. In older Medina homes where the handler sits in a damp basement near the Square, this is often the most contaminated component in the entire system.
Condenser Cleaning
Outdoor condensers in Medina fight cottonwood in June, farm dust in September, and every deciduous leaf in between. We wash the coil fins, clear the cabinet, and check airflow across the refrigerant lines. A clogged condenser forces the whole system to work harder, and with Medina’s older compressors, that’s a repair bill you don’t want.
Coil Treatment
After cleaning, we apply a coil treatment that resists the specific contaminants Medina throws at HVAC equipment: fine agricultural dust, lake-effect moisture, and the mold spores that follow both. This isn’t a spray-and-go. We treat the coil after it’s clean, which is the only way the treatment bonds properly.

BeforeAfterTrusted Brands We Service in Medina
We service and maintain equipment from Honeywell, Guardsman, and every major HVAC brand installed in Medina homes since the 1970s. Our truck stock includes the fittings, filters, and sealants needed for older forced-air conversions near the Square, so we’re not making a second trip across town for a part. If your system uses a builder-grade flex run from a 1990s subdivision off Reagan Parkway or an original metal trunk from a 1920s Craftsman on West Liberty Street, we’ve worked on it before.
Common HVAC Cleaning Problems We See in Medina Homes
- Retrofitted gravity trunks that trap debris at every transition. The original runs near Medina Square weren’t designed for forced air. Air moves slower through the oversized passages, dropping dirt at every elbow and joint. A basic clean leaves those deposits in place, and within weeks the debris redistributes through the house.
- Condensation-fueled microbial growth in uninsulated metal trunks. Medina’s freeze-thaw cycles and Lake Erie humidity create moisture inside duct runs that sit in cold basements or crawl spaces. Dry vacuum extraction alone won’t address the film that builds on duct walls. We inspect for moisture during every cleaning and treat it when we find it.
- Crushed or disconnected flexible duct in 1980s-2000s subdivisions. In the tract homes off Fenn Road and out toward Reagan Parkway, the original builder-grade flex runs often sag, kink, or separate at the takeoff. We camera-inspect runs during cleaning to find these failures. A disconnected return pulling crawl-space air is a common find, and it’s the real reason some Medina homes stay dusty no matter how often the vents get wiped.
- Dead-end branch runs that recirculate debris within weeks. Gravity conversions left branches that no longer carry active airflow. Debris settles in those dead ends, then gets re-entrained whenever the blower kicks on. We agitate and extract those runs specifically, which is the difference between a cleaning that lasts and one that doesn’t.
Pricing for HVAC Cleaning in Medina, OH
A whole-system HVAC Cleaning in Medina typically runs $425-$890. Evaporator coil cleaning alone is usually $180-$320 when done as part of a full system clean. Air handler cleaning adds $150-$275 depending on cabinet access and blower configuration. Coil treatment runs $95-$150 per coil. The homes around Medina Square with retrofitted gravity trunks tend to land at the higher end because those runs require non-standard agitation tools and more time per linear foot. The tract homes off Reagan Parkway are usually mid-range. Every quote is written and agreed before work begins, under Haven Standard Clause 1. No per-vent pricing, no climb-on-the-roof upcharge. You know the number before we start.

FAQs - HVAC Cleaning in Medina
Retrofitted gravity systems have trunks that taper oddly, turn through finished walls, and dead-end in branches that no longer carry active airflow. Those dead ends trap debris that a standard rotating brush never reaches. In homes around Medina Square, we use non-standard agitation tools sized for those legacy runs and camera-inspect every branch to confirm extraction. Most companies skip the dead ends entirely, which is why the homeowner thinks duct cleaning “doesn’t work.” Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll explain what your specific system needs.
Two reasons: Medina’s agricultural surroundings push heavy pollen and field dust into outdoor intakes every spring and fall, and retrofitted gravity systems re-entrain debris from dead-end branch runs that weren’t cleaned in the first place. If a prior cleaning left those branches untouched, the debris recirculates within weeks. A proper cleaning on a Medina retrofit includes agitating and extracting those dead ends, which is time-consuming but necessary.
Yes, regularly. In the 1920s Craftsman homes off West Liberty Street and the 1980s-2000s tract subdivisions alike, we find runs that have separated at the takeoff, sagged under their own weight, or been crushed during unrelated work. A disconnected return pulls unfiltered crawl-space or wall-cavity air into the supply side, which means dust even after the ducts are clean. We document these findings with photos and provide a written scope for the sealing or repair work needed to actually fix the problem. Call (806) 606-6902 for an estimate.
Medina sits in the outer lake-effect snow belt, which means more freeze-thaw cycling and elevated winter humidity pulled off Lake Erie. That combination drives condensation inside uninsulated metal trunks, especially in older homes where the basement or crawl space stays cold. Mold needs moisture to grow, and Medina’s older systems provide it. We inspect for moisture and microbial contamination during every cleaning and recommend treatment only when the evidence supports it, with before-and-after photos included.
Yes, and for most Medina homes, the air handler and evaporator coil are the most contaminated components in the system. We include coil and handler cleaning in our whole-system service, with a separate line item on the written quote so you see exactly what you’re paying for. The coil treatment is optional but recommended for Medina’s humidity profile. Call (806) 606-6902 and we’ll give you a written price for your specific system.
One thing we see again and again in Medina: a cleaning crew comes through, makes a lot of noise, and leaves the actual problem untouched. The disconnected run behind the dining room wall, the dead-end branch packed with decades of field dust, the coil matted with the same fine silt that coats the Square every spring. We photograph all of it, before and after, and hand you the record. That’s the difference between a visit and a documented repair.
On a 1920s Craftsman on West Liberty Street just off the Square, our crew ran a camera inspection and found a main trunk running diagonally across a finished plaster ceiling. Behind the dining room wall, a disconnected run had been pulling unfiltered crawl-space air into the supply side for years. Source removal with negative pressure and HEPA filtration cleared the contamination. We sealed the gap, treated the evaporator coil, and handed the homeowner photos of every step. That’s what HVAC cleaning in Medina actually requires.
