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.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning in Fresno, TX
HVAC cleaning in Fresno typically runs $320-$580 for a full system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. The 15-20-year-old flex duct systems common here, combined with Houston’s 75-90% relative humidity, create conditions we don’t see in drier markets: sagging duct sections trap condensation, accelerating microbial growth inside the plenum (the main air distribution box) and throughout every duct run. Call (346) 251-8919 for a written quote before any work starts.
Why Fresno Homes Are Different
Fresno’s buildout during Fort Bend County’s late-1990s-to-2010s growth surge produced a remarkably uniform housing stock: tract homes with flex duct systems run through unconditioned attics that reach 140-160°F in summer. That thermal stress degrades duct liner faster than in conditioned crawl spaces or basements found in northern markets.
The clay-heavy Beaumont Formation soil beneath Fresno shifts slab foundations seasonally. We’ve found flex duct boots partially detached at the connection point, dumping conditioned air into the attic while pulling in insulation fibers and roof-deck debris. Homeowners notice the dust but rarely trace it to a disconnected joint.
Houston’s subtropical climate means AC runs eight to ten months annually, cycling humid Gulf Coast air through ductwork continuously. Summer dewpoints above 70°F create chronic condensation cycles that coat interior surfaces with particulate-trapping moisture. Compared to drier inland Texas cities, Fresno ducts accumulate biofilm faster and hold it longer.
Our Main Fresno Services
Homeowners in Fresno call us most often for these three services. Each has its own page with full pricing and scope details.
Air Duct Cleaning in Fresno
We clean every duct run from register back to plenum, using negative-pressure extraction (suction that contains debris rather than blowing it into the home) with Rotobrush and Nikro equipment. In Fresno’s older flex systems, we photograph each connection point to check for the detached boots that soil-specific shifting causes. Air Duct Cleaning in Fresno
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fresno
Dryer vents in Fresno’s 15-20-year-old builds often run through long attic routes with multiple elbows, collecting lint in hard-to-reach sections. We run a rotary brush the full length and verify airflow at the exterior termination. Every job includes a written before-and-after airflow measurement. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Fresno
Duct Repair & Sealing in Fresno
Foundation shift in Fresno separates flex duct connections and cracks rigid plenum seams. We repair with mechanical fasteners and mastic sealant, then pressure-test to verify no leakage. Repairs are photographed and included in the job record. Duct Repair & Sealing in Fresno

BeforeAfterHVAC Cleaning in Fresno
HVAC cleaning in Fresno addresses what continuous humid-air operation does to components: evaporator coils in these 15-20-year-old systems often carry biofilm loads that restrict airflow and breed musty odors, while blower wheels cake with fine dust that the standard 1-inch filter misses. Our crews use HVAC Cleaning protocols developed for Gulf Coast conditions, with equipment from Rotobrush and Abatement Technologies.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Weak airflow from registers, musty smell when AC cycles on, or ice forming on the coil cabinet in summer.
What it costs in Fresno
Evaporator coil cleaning typically runs $180-$340.
How we do it
We access the coil through the plenum, apply foaming cleaner, rinse with low-pressure water capture, and photograph before and after.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Uneven heating or cooling across rooms, higher electric bills without thermostat changes, or visible dust puffing from registers at startup.
What it costs in Fresno
Blower cleaning typically runs $140-$260.
How we do it
We remove the blower assembly, clean the wheel and housing with compressed air and contact vacuum, balance the motor, and document RPM and amp draw.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Fresno
| Item | Typical range in Fresno |
|---|---|
| Evaporator coil cleaning | $180-$340 |
| Blower cleaning | $140-$260 |
| Full HVAC system cleaning | $320-$580 |
How do I know my HVAC needs cleaning versus just the ducts?
If you smell must when the AC starts, see ice on the coil, or have weak airflow despite clean filters, the components need attention. Call (346) 251-8919 and we’ll scope the system to show you what’s inside.
Can HVAC cleaning fix rooms that never cool evenly?
Often yes, when the cause is a dirty blower wheel or blocked coil restricting total system airflow. We measure before and after so you see the change in cubic feet per minute.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Fresno
Air quality work in Fresno targets the microbial growth that humid, continuously operating AC produces inside 15-20-year-old flex duct systems. Standing condensation in sagging sections breeds mold and bacteria that standard cleaning doesn’t address, while the tight, energy-efficient construction of these tract homes limits natural dilution of indoor pollutants. Our Air Quality & Sanitizing service uses application equipment from Abatement Technologies and Honeywell.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Visible growth on register fins, persistent musty odor after duct cleaning, or family members with worsening allergy symptoms indoors.
What it costs in Fresno
Mold treatment typically runs $280-$520 depending on affected duct run count.
How we do it
We apply EPA-registered antimicrobial through the full system, let it dwell per manufacturer spec, then extract residue and photograph treated surfaces.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Repeated mold recurrence after treatment, or a coil that stays wet enough to grow biofilm between maintenance visits.
What it costs in Fresno
UV light installation typically runs $380-$650 including the lamp and power supply.
How we do it
We mount a Honeywell or Aprilaire UV-C lamp in the plenum aimed at the coil, wire to the air handler’s 24V circuit, and show you the bulb replacement schedule.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Fresno
| Item | Typical range in Fresno |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment | $280-$520 |
| UV light installation | $380-$650 |
| Bacteria sanitizing | $220-$400 |
Does mold treatment kill everything in the ducts?
It kills active growth on reachable surfaces; dead spores and residue are then extracted. We photograph treated areas so you see what was addressed and what condition it was in.
How long does a UV light last?
The bulb runs about 9,000 hours, roughly one year of continuous AC operation in Fresno’s climate. We note the install date on your job record and call when replacement is due.
