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.

AfterTrane Air Duct Cleaning in Tomball, TX | CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning The Woodlands
We provide independent Trane service across Tomball, TX, with pricing agreed in writing before any work begins and a documented photo record of every duct run delivered when we leave. The one thing that makes our Trane work here different: we’ve spent over a decade inside the exact flex-duct systems installed during Tomball’s Grand Parkway buildout, and we know how 130°F attic heat degrades Trane ductwork in ways you won’t find in Houston’s older neighborhoods. Call (346) 248-1474 for a free estimate.
Why Tomball Residents Choose Us for Trane Service
We are not a Trane dealer. We are an independent service company that has cleaned, sealed, and restored Trane duct systems in northwest Harris County since 2013. That independence matters because it means we evaluate your system based on what we find, not on what a manufacturer program incentivizes us to sell.
Tomas Reyes, our owner, grew up in Queens and trained in HVAC and sheet metal at New York City College of Technology before relocating to Texas. He’s spent the better part of two decades learning what Gulf Coast humidity does to residential ductwork. In Tomball, that knowledge translates directly to your Trane system: we know how the XR14 you bought in 2008 behaves after fifteen summers in a 140°F attic off Hufsmith-Kohrville Road, and we know when cleaning will solve the problem versus when the flex duct itself has failed beyond recovery.
Every job starts with a written price under Haven Standard Clause 1. Every technician is background-checked and uniformed under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. And every duct run is photographed before and after, because the Trane sales & service we deliver is documented, not described. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies, Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman - brands you can verify before you agree to anything.
Common Trane Air Duct Cleaning Problems We Solve in Tomball
- Flex duct inner liner degradation and collapse. Trane systems installed in Tomball homes built 2000-2010 used flex duct almost exclusively, and after 15-20 years in 130°F+ attics, the inner liner crumbles into the airstream. We replace failed sections with R-8 insulated duct matched to Trane’s original airflow specs.
- Evaporator coil fouling from fiberglass particulate and mold spores. Tomball’s 8-9 month cooling season circulates debris year-round. In Trane air handlers, this coats the evaporator coil and reduces heat transfer. We clean coils with controlled chemistry and document the before-and-after with photo records.
- Return duct leakage and pressure imbalance. Original flex duct runs in Grand Parkway-era subdivisions were often undersized or improperly supported. We pressure-test Trane return systems, seal leaks with mastic, and replace collapsed sections that pull unconditioned attic air into your living space.
- Blower wheel imbalance and motor strain. Accumulated dust and liner debris in Trane air handlers throws off blower balance, raising amp draw and shortening motor life. Our cleaning includes full blower assembly removal and inspection when indicated.
- Post-Hurricane Harvey moisture intrusion. Many Tomball attics and crawlspaces took water in 2017 that seeded mold inside duct systems owners still haven’t addressed. We inspect for active growth and recommend sanitizing only when the photo record supports it.
BeforeAfterTrane Service in Tomball: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Tomball’s explosive post-Grand Parkway buildout created a housing stock now hitting a critical age. The subdivisions that went up between 2000 and 2010 - many along the TX-99 corridor and its feeder roads - used flex duct in nearly every home. After fifteen to twenty years in unconditioned attics that routinely reach 130-140°F, that flex duct is failing in a pattern we rarely see elsewhere.
In Houston’s older inner-ring suburbs, you’re more likely to find metal duct or fiberglass duct board from the 1970s and 1980s. Those systems have their own problems, but crumbling inner liner isn’t one of them. In Tomball, the combination of extreme attic heat and high humidity creates a failure mode unique to this growth corridor: the flex duct’s inner liner degrades, sheds fiberglass into the airstream, and eventually collapses entirely. We’ve opened Trane systems in Tomball where the supply runs were partially blocked by liner debris that looked like gray cotton batting. The homeowner had no idea. The before photo does the talking. Everything else is just paperwork.
This matters for Trane owners specifically because Trane’s XR Series and XB Series systems from this era were engineered for precise airflow. When flex duct collapses or sheds liner, the static pressure rises, the blower works harder, and the system’s efficiency drops even if the mechanical components are sound. Cleaning alone won’t fix collapsed duct. We tell you that before we write the price.
Trane Models & Products We Service in Tomball
We work on the Trane model lines common in Tomball service area homes: the XR Series (XR13, XR14, XR16), XB Series (XB13, XB14), XV Series (XV18, XV20i), and S-Series (S8, S9). These systems were installed across Tomball’s master-planned subdivisions during the 2000s and 2010s, often paired with flex duct that is now reaching end-of-life.
Our parts approach is straightforward: OEM-spec or high-quality aftermarket flex duct, mastic, and insulation matched to Trane’s original duct sizing and airflow requirements. We stock R-8 flex duct, collars, and hangers for fast Tomball turnaround, and we carry coil cleaner and blower assembly tools sized for Trane air handler configurations. If your Trane air handler or coil is more than 12-15 years old with significant mold or mechanical damage, we give an honest repair-vs-replace assessment. Haven Standard Clause 1: written price before work starts. No exceptions.
Trane Service Pricing in Tomball
Air Duct Cleaning - Tomball typically runs $450-$850 for a complete whole-system cleaning, depending on home size, duct accessibility, and whether flex duct repair or evaporator coil cleaning is needed. Duct sealing adds $300-$600. Flex duct replacement is priced per linear foot with the total agreed in writing before any panels come off.
What drives cost: the number of duct runs, the condition of the flex duct inner liner, and whether we need to access the evaporator coil or blower assembly. Our free estimate includes a full camera inspection of every trunk and branch, pressure testing where indicated, and a written scope with line-item pricing. No per-vent gimmicks. No coupon that triples once we’re on site. Call (346) 248-1474 for an exact quote - estimates are free, and we put our number next to any competitor’s written estimate under our Free Second Opinion policy.

FAQs - Trane Air Duct Cleaning in Tomball
Your Tomball home likely has flex duct in a 130°F+ attic, and if it was built 2000-2010, the inner liner may be degrading and shedding fiberglass particulate into the airstream. Houston’s older homes more often use metal duct or duct board, which doesn’t have this failure mode. We photograph every run to confirm whether the dust is actually liner debris. Call (346) 248-1474 for an inspection.
Tomball sits in northwest Harris County’s humidity corridor, with Gulf moisture funneled inland year-round. Trane systems run 8-9 months annually here, so any mold spores or organic debris inside ductwork circulates nearly continuously. Post-Hurricane Harvey moisture intrusion in many Tomball attics made this worse. We inspect for active growth with camera evidence and recommend sanitizing only when the photo record supports it. Call (346) 248-1474 for a mold assessment.
It depends on what the camera shows. In a 2005-built home off Hufsmith-Kohrville Road in Tomball, our crew inspected a Trane XR14 system and found the flex duct inner liner collapsed and shedding fiberglass into the supply runs. We performed a full system cleaning, replaced the failed flex duct sections with R-8 insulated duct, and cleaned the evaporator coil. If your liner is intact, cleaning may suffice. If it’s crumbling, replacement is the only lasting fix. We give you the photo record and a written price for either path before you decide.
Duct cleaning resolves airflow restrictions caused by debris buildup. It does not fix collapsed flex duct, undersized returns, or a fouled evaporator coil. We pressure-test the full system to isolate whether the restriction is in the ductwork, the coil, or the blower assembly. The written scope specifies exactly what we found and what each correction costs. No guesswork.
For Trane systems with flex duct in Tomball’s 130°F+ attics, we recommend inspection every 3-5 years once the home passes the 15-year mark. The inner liner degradation accelerates with heat exposure, and catching it early prevents fiberglass contamination and blower motor strain. Our inspection includes full photo documentation of every run. Call (346) 248-1474 to schedule.
