Air Duct Cleaning in Leander - One Flat Price, Before-and-After Photos

Air Duct Cleaning in Leander, TX

Whole-system HVAC cleaning in Leander typically runs $350-$650 for a standard single-family home, with most jobs completed in one visit and a written price delivered before any panel comes off. Leander’s explosive growth from 2005 to 2023 left thousands of homes with builder-grade flex-duct systems installed on compressed timelines, trapping construction debris that standard filters never reach. We’re CleanRun, and we dispatch crews to Leander from our Austin office with Rotobrush and Nikro negative-pressure extraction equipment, a written scope for every job, and a photo record of every duct run before we leave.

Why Leander Homes Are Different

Leander sits where the Blackland Prairie meets the Ashe juniper belt at the western edge of the Edwards Plateau, which means the December-February cedar pollen season here is among the densest recorded anywhere in the continental US. That pollen is fine enough to bypass standard 1-inch filters and coat duct interiors far more aggressively than in flatter eastern suburbs. Nearly continuous AC operation from May through September pulls that accumulated pollen, caliche dust from ongoing construction, and Central Texas clay particulates through the system year-round.

The housing stock tells its own story. Perry Homes, Meritage, and KB Home built thousands of tract homes across Crystal Falls, Travisso, Bryson, and Larkspur on rapid timelines. First cleanings in these homes routinely turn up drywall compound dust, blown insulation fragments, and blue painter’s tape scraps hardened inside duct boots in houses only four to six years old. The flex-duct and basic trunk-and-branch sheet-metal systems common to this era weren’t designed for the particle load this terrain produces.

Our Main Leander Services

These are the three services Leander homeowners call about most. Each has its own page with full pricing and scope details.

Air Duct Cleaning in Leander

Negative-pressure extraction of the full duct network, from return plenum (the sheet-metal box that collects air before it hits the filter) to every supply register. In Leander, we regularly find construction debris from the 2005-2023 build surge still sealed inside flex-duct runs. We photograph every run before and after, and the written price is set before work begins. Air Duct Cleaning in Leander

Dryer Vent Cleaning in Leander

Full vent-line cleaning from dryer connection to exterior termination, with airflow testing before and after. Leander’s newer subdivisions often have longer vent runs through attic space to meet HOA aesthetic requirements, which compounds lint accumulation. We remove the restriction and verify airflow with a manometer. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Leander

Duct Repair & Sealing in Leander

Repair of disconnected runs, sealing of leaks at plenum joints and boots, and replacement of crushed or deteriorated flex-duct. The rapid-build environment here produced more than the usual share of poorly sealed connections that leak conditioned air into attics. We document every repair with before-and-after photos.

HVAC Cleaning in Leander

HVAC cleaning in Leander addresses what the standard filter change cannot reach: the evaporator coil caked with cedar pollen and caliche dust, the blower wheel throwing imbalanced from accumulated debris, and the air handler cabinet harboring construction residue from the original build. Our crews use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to clean these components without removing refrigerant lines or cutting sheet metal, and every step is photographed for the job record. HVAC Cleaning covers our full process for homeowners outside Leander as well.

Evaporator Coil Cleaning

Signs you need it

Ice formation on the coil, weak airflow from registers, or AC running continuously without reaching set temperature during Leander’s May-September cooling season.

What it costs in Leander

Evaporator coil cleaning typically runs $180-$320 as a standalone service, or $120-$220 when bundled with full duct cleaning.

How we do it

We access the coil through the plenum, apply foaming cleaner rated for aluminum fins, rinse with low-pressure water capture, and photograph the coil surface before and after.

Blower Cleaning

Signs you need it

Vibration or noise from the air handler, uneven airflow room-to-room, or dust puffing from registers when the system cycles on.

What it costs in Leander

Blower wheel and housing cleaning ranges $150-$280 individually, or $100-$180 as part of a complete HVAC cleaning package.

How we do it

We remove the blower assembly, clean the wheel vanes and housing with compressed air and contact vacuum, balance-check the assembly, and reinstall with torque-verified hardware.

What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Leander

How do I know the HVAC cleaning was actually done?

Every component is photographed before and after, and those images are delivered with your written invoice as part of the standard Documented Photo Record. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires the written price before work starts; the photo record closes the loop on what was actually performed.

Why does my Leander home need HVAC cleaning more often than my parents’ house?

Your home was likely built between 2005 and 2023 with builder-grade components on a compressed timeline, and it sits in one of the nation’s densest cedar pollen zones. The combination traps more debris, faster, than older homes in less challenging terrain.

Air Quality & Sanitizing in Leander

Air quality and sanitizing in Leander targets what cleaning alone cannot remove: microbial growth in the evaporator pan and duct boots fed by months of continuous AC condensation, and the persistent cedar pollen residue that standard extraction leaves behind. Our crews apply EPA-registered treatments and install permanent air purification hardware where the source problem demands it. Air Quality & Sanitizing details our full approach for homeowners comparing options.

Mold Treatment

Signs you need it

Musty odor when the AC cycles on, visible spotting on register faces, or condensation stains on ceiling drywall near duct boots.

What it costs in Leander

Whole-system mold treatment runs $400-$750 depending on contamination extent and duct accessibility in the attic.

How we do it

We apply an EPA-registered botanical fungistat to all interior duct surfaces through the negative-pressure system, treat the evaporator pan and drain line, and retest with moisture meters.

UV Light Installation

Signs you need it

Recurring microbial odor after cleaning, family members with allergy symptoms that persist despite filter upgrades, or visible biofilm on the coil.

What it costs in Leander

UV-C lamp installation at the coil or air handler ranges $280-$520 including hardware and electrical connection.

How we do it

We mount a Honeywell or Aprilaire UV-C lamp in the supply plenum with a sight-glass port, wire to the blower circuit for automatic operation, and verify irradiance with a UV meter.

What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Leander

Does UV light actually work in Leander’s climate?

UV-C lamps are effective against microbial growth on the coil and in the plenum where Leander’s high humidity and continuous AC operation create ideal conditions for biofilm. They do not remove particulates; we pair them with proper filtration for complete control.

Is mold treatment safe for my family and pets?

We use EPA-registered botanical products, not bleach or quaternary ammonium compounds, and the system remains sealed during application. Occupants can re-enter immediately after the 30-minute dwell period and ventilation cycle.

Brands We Service in Leander

We stock parts and service components from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Abatement Technologies, with same-week turnaround on most filter upgrades, UV lamp replacements, and media filter installations. our brands
