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.
Fast, Reliable HVAC Cleaning Across Selma
HVAC cleaning in Selma typically costs between $350 and $650 for a complete system clean, depending on the size of the home and how much agricultural dust has accumulated. Most jobs take 4 to 6 hours and are scheduled within a few days of the first call. If you live within a half-mile of active vineyards, your evaporator coil and supply runs will need more frequent attention than homes in Fresno or Clovis. Call (806) 606-6902 to schedule a written, upfront estimate.
We know Selma’s HVAC systems because we work on them every week. The combination of 1950s-to-1980s ranch construction, original ductwork that was rarely sealed properly, and a harvest season that loads the air with fine particulates means your system accumulates more debris faster than almost anywhere else in the Central Valley. When we open a supply run on a Selma home, we expect to find things most contractors in other cities never see. The good news is that none of it surprises us, and all of it is fixable.
- Written price before any work starts - always, on every job, before a single panel comes off.
- Documented Photo Record on every visit - the inside of every duct run, photographed before and after, delivered with your job record.
- 365-Day Done Right Promise - if the work isn’t right, we make it right. In writing, on every job.
- Professional-grade equipment - Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro negative-air machines, and Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration, named so you can verify what we use before you agree to a price.
- Background-checked, uniformed technicians - identified by name before arrival, operating under the H.A.V.E.N. Standard.

Why CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Is Selma’s Preferred HVAC Cleaning Company
We built our reputation in Selma by showing homeowners what’s actually inside their ducts before we touch anything. That’s the CleanRun difference: a camera goes in first, you see what we see, and then we put a written price in your hand. No pressure, no bait-and-switch, no vague promises about “improving air quality.” Either the ducts are packed with agricultural residue or they aren’t. Either the evaporator coil is restricted or it isn’t. We photograph it, we show you, and then we do the work.
Selma homeowners call us because we understand this specific housing stock. Ranch homes built between the 1950s and 1980s share a set of predictable problems: unsealed duct joints in attics and crawlspaces, undersized original returns, and fiberglass filters that were never designed to catch grape-skin dust. When a homeowner on Floral Avenue or Rose Avenue tells us their AC runs constantly and the house still feels warm, we know what we’ll find before we even pull the register, and we know how to fix it. That local knowledge is worth more than any coupon.
Tomas Reyes, who leads our team, has walked hundreds of Selma crawlspaces and attics. He’s the one who set the standard we still follow: document everything, price it in writing before work starts, and back the result with a guarantee we actually honor. Haven Standard Clause 1 is the whole point, and we don’t make exceptions.
Every job ends with a documented photo record of every duct run, included as a standard deliverable. You’ll see the before photo of the supply run packed with reddish-brown dust, and the after photo showing clean sheet metal. You keep that record. It’s yours.
Our HVAC Cleaning Services in Selma

Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Evaporator coil cleaning in Selma runs $180 to $340, depending on accessibility and how much agricultural residue has baked onto the coil surface. Homes within a half-mile of active vineyards clog faster. A coil caked with grape-skin dust and fine soil particles can’t transfer heat efficiently, which means your AC runs longer, pulls more power, and pulls in more outside air from Selma’s high-PM2.5 airshed. We use a professional-grade coil cleaner and then photograph the before and after so you can see the difference. In our experience, this is the single most neglected maintenance item in Selma homes.

Air Handler Cleaning
Air handler cleaning in Selma typically costs $200 to $380. The air handler is the cabinet that houses the blower and the evaporator coil, and in older Selma ranch homes it’s often located in a garage or an interior closet where it’s easy to forget. Dust that makes it past the filter settles inside the air handler housing, on the blower wheel, and around the coil. We remove the panels, clean the interior surfaces, blow out the condensate drain line, and document the whole process. If your air handler is original to the home and has never been opened, this job alone can restore measurable airflow. Last September, our crew cleaned a 1960s ranch home on Floral Avenue where the original supply runs were so packed with grape-skin dust that airflow had dropped by half. We used negative pressure with a Rotobrush agitation system and HEPA filtration to remove the build-up, then sealed disconnected joints in the attic and replaced the collapsed return duct. The homeowner finally stopped tasting dust every time the AC kicked on.

Blower Cleaning
Blower cleaning in Selma runs $150 to $300. The blower wheel is what actually moves air through your ducts, and when it’s coated with the fine reddish-brown dust that settles over Selma every harvest season, it loses efficiency fast. A dirty blower wheel pushes less air, which increases static pressure, which pulls in even more outside air through leaky duct joints. It’s a compounding problem in homes built before 1985. We remove the blower assembly, clean the wheel with agitation tools, and reinstall it. Most homeowners notice a quieter system and stronger airflow at the registers within a day.

Condenser Cleaning
Condenser cleaning in Selma typically costs $150 to $280. The condenser is the outdoor unit, and in raisin country it takes a beating from the environment: dust, cottonwood fluff, vineyard debris, and exhaust from tractors and harvest equipment. We clean the coils with a low-pressure wash and check the fins for damage. A clogged condenser coil raises head pressure inside the system, which shortens compressor life and raises your electric bill. Homes near active drying fields need this every year, sometimes twice if the harvest was heavy.

AfterTrusted Brands We Service in Selma
We work on systems from every major manufacturer, and we stock common parts for Honeywell and Aprilaire components used in Selma homes. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush agitation tools, Nikro negative-air machines, and Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration systems. These are professional-grade tools, the kind used in commercial and medical facilities, not shop vacs or homeowner-grade equipment. We name them because you should know what you’re paying for. If a contractor won’t tell you what equipment they’re bringing into your home, that tells you something too.
Common HVAC Cleaning Problems We See in Selma Homes

- Raisin dust in the supply runs. From August through October, mechanical harvesters and vineyard operations throw fine grape-skin dust and soil into the air. Standard fiberglass filters catch maybe 15 to 30 percent of it. The rest packs into supply runs and settles on the evaporator coil as a reddish-brown residue that hardens over time.
- Unsealed duct joints in attics and crawlspaces. Homes built in the 1950s through 1980s were rarely sealed properly at the duct connections, and many have never been touched since. Each gap lets Selma’s high-PM2.5 outdoor air bypass the filter and enter the duct system directly. We find this on roughly 7 out of 10 Selma homes we clean.
- Undersized original ductwork. Many Selma ranch homes were built with duct systems sized for old, weaker blower motors. Modern systems retrofit onto those same runs create high static pressure, which pulls in outdoor particulates through every seam and gap. The fix is often more about sealing than cleaning.
- Clogged evaporator coils near vineyards. Homes within a half-mile of active raisin drying fields or vineyard rows show a distinctive fine-grained buildup on the coil face that reduces cooling capacity and forces longer run times. That, in turn, compounds duct contamination. September and October are our busiest months for coil cleaning in Selma, right after mechanical harvest wraps up.

FAQs - HVAC Cleaning in Selma

That reddish-brown residue is grape-skin dust and dry soil from mechanical harvesting operations, and it’s specific to Selma’s location in the raisin belt. Standard fiberglass filters cannot catch fine particulates of that size, so they pass through and accumulate inside your ducts. We see this on almost every job between August and November. The fix is a full cleaning with HEPA filtration plus sealing any duct joints that let unfiltered outdoor air in. Call (806) 606-6902 for an exact quote on your system.
If your home is within a half-mile of active vineyard rows or raisin drying fields, plan on annual cleaning, with evaporator coil attention in late fall after harvest ends. Homes farther from agricultural operations but still in Selma can usually go 2 to 3 years between cleanings. The deciding factor is what the camera shows. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after every job, so you can see exactly what accumulated and decide for yourself when the next cleaning makes sense. Call (806) 606-6902 to schedule an inspection.
Start with an inspection that includes a camera walkthrough of your supply and return runs. Original ductwork in Selma homes from that era is often undersized for the blower motors now installed, and the joints were rarely sealed at construction. Weak airflow usually has two causes: debris build-up restricting the runs, and leaks pulling conditioned air into the attic or crawlspace. We clean first, then seal what needs sealing, and we show you photos of both. The written price covers exactly what we find. Call (806) 606-6902 to schedule.
Yes, and it’s more pronounced here than in most of California because Selma summers regularly exceed 105°F and your AC runs almost constantly. A clogged evaporator coil or packed supply runs force longer run times, which increases energy use and pulls more of Selma’s high-PM2.5 outdoor air through every gap. The system works harder to move less air, and the heat exchanger never gets a chance to rest. Annual coil maintenance is not an upsell in this climate. It’s the difference between a 12-year system and an 18-year system. Call (806) 606-6902 for a written estimate.
In Selma, that musty odor is often organic agricultural dust that settled inside the ducts during harvest and then sat damp through the winter tule fog months. When the heater fires up, it warms that layer and you smell it. It’s not normal in the sense of being healthy, but it is common in homes near vineyards. The fix is a full cleaning to remove the organic layer, followed by sanitizing if the camera shows mold or mildew. We’ll show you the before and after so you know exactly what was in there. Call (806) 606-6902 to schedule.
