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 Spring, TX
HVAC cleaning in Spring typically runs $380-$680 for a full system, with air quality and sanitizing work adding $220-$490 depending on whether mold treatment or UV installation is needed. Spring’s aging flex duct inventory and Houston’s year-round humidity mean these aren’t cosmetic services here - they’re health interventions. Call (346) 248-1474 and we’ll put a written price in your hand before any work starts.
Why Spring Homes Are Different
Spring’s suburban build-out peaked in the 1980s and 1990s, leaving a dense concentration of homes with original builder-grade flex duct systems that are now 25-40 years old. Houston’s extreme subtropical humidity combined with 8-10 months of near-continuous AC operation means these aging ducts in Spring attics cycle moisture constantly, producing mold and microbial colonization at rates that make duct cleaning a genuine health intervention - not a cosmetic service - in a way that simply isn’t true in drier Sun Belt markets.
In Spring’s 1980s-era neighborhoods near Cypresswood and Louetta, we regularly find that flex duct inner liners have separated from their wire coils but the outer jacket is still intact. The system appears fine from the outside while attic air laden with insulation fibers and mold spores is drawn directly into the supply stream, bypassing the filter entirely. Harris County averages relative humidity above 75% year-round, and Spring attics routinely exceed 130°F in summer. When cold conditioned air runs through flex ducts in that environment, condensation forms on inner liner surfaces and moisture migrates into duct insulation. The length of the cooling season means there is almost no dry-air “reset” period that would naturally suppress microbial buildup.
Our Main Spring Services
Spring homeowners call us most often for these three services, each with its own dedicated page and local pricing.
Air Duct Cleaning in Spring
We clean the full supply and return network with negative-pressure extraction - a vacuum system that pulls debris out while agitation tools loosen it from duct walls. In Spring, this means addressing the degraded inner liners and failing mastic connections common in 1980s-1990s builds. Every run is photographed before and after. Air Duct Cleaning in Spring covers full pricing and what’s included.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Spring
Lint accumulation in dryer vents is accelerated in Spring’s humidity, where moisture binds fine particles into dense blockages. We use Rotobrush and Nikro equipment to clear the full run from appliance to termination, with airflow tested before and after. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Spring has full details.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Spring
Separated flex duct liners, failed foil tape at plenum connections, and crushed attic runs are standard findings in Spring’s older inventory. We repair or replace damaged sections and seal joints with mastic, not tape. Duct Repair & Sealing in Spring explains our repair scope and pricing.

BeforeAfterHVAC Cleaning in Spring
Spring’s 1980s-1990s housing stock and year-round AC dependence mean HVAC components accumulate microbial load and debris that newer, drier markets simply don’t see. Evaporator coils in Spring homes often show black mold colonization within 3-5 years of installation, and blower assemblies cake with a paste of dust and condensed moisture that restricts airflow and drives up energy bills. We document every component with before-and-after photography as part of our standard HVAC Cleaning deliverable.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Ice formation on refrigerant lines, weak airflow from registers, or musty odors when the AC cycles on in Spring’s humid months.
What it costs in Spring
Evaporator coil cleaning in Spring typically runs $180-$340.
How we do it
We remove the coil assembly where accessible, apply foaming cleaner, rinse with low-pressure water, and photograph the full surface before reassembly.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Uneven heating or cooling across rooms, higher-than-expected electric bills, or visible dust puffing from registers at startup.
What it costs in Spring
Blower assembly cleaning in Spring typically runs $160-$280.
How we do it
We extract the blower motor and wheel, clean each blade and the housing interior with compressed air and solvent, balance the wheel, and reinstall with torque verification.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Spring
| Item | Typical range in Spring |
|---|---|
| Evaporator coil cleaning | $180-$340 |
| Blower assembly cleaning | $160-$280 |
| Full HVAC system cleaning (coil + blower + air handler) | $380-$680 |
How do I know my HVAC needs cleaning and not just my ducts?
If you smell musty odors when the AC starts, see ice on refrigerant lines, or have uneven temperatures room-to-room, the problem is likely in the HVAC components, not the duct network alone. Call (346) 248-1474 - we’ll inspect both and put a written scope in your hand.
Can HVAC cleaning reduce my electric bill in Spring?
Yes - a blower caked with debris or a mold-coated coil can reduce system efficiency 15-25%, and Spring’s 8-10 month cooling season multiplies that waste. We measure airflow before and after so you can see the difference.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Spring
Spring’s humidity-saturated attic environments and aging flex duct systems create conditions where mold and bacteria colonize duct interiors at rates that trigger respiratory symptoms in sensitive occupants. The same separated liner problems we find near Cypresswood and Louetta allow unfiltered attic air - carrying Aspergillus, Penicillium, and fiberglass particulate - to bypass the filter entirely. Our Air Quality & Sanitizing work addresses the biological load, not just the debris.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Visible black or green growth at registers, persistent musty odor, or family members with worsening allergies inside the home.
What it costs in Spring
Mold treatment for a typical Spring home runs $280-$520 depending on colonization extent and duct accessibility.
How we do it
We apply EPA-registered antimicrobial through the full duct network, treat the evaporator coil and plenum, and deliver a documented photo record of treated surfaces.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring mold despite previous cleaning, or a home where occupants have asthma, COPD, or immunocompromised conditions.
What it costs in Spring
UV-C light installation in Spring typically runs $320-$580 including the lamp, housing, and electrical connection.
How we do it
We mount a Honeywell or Aprilaire UV lamp downstream of the evaporator coil, wire to the air handler’s 24V circuit, and verify irradiance with a meter.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Spring
| Item | Typical range in Spring |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment (full system) | $280-$520 |
| UV-C light installation | $320-$580 |
| Bacteria sanitizing with antimicrobial fogging | $220-$380 |
Does mold in ducts mean I need full replacement?
Rarely - in Spring’s flex duct systems, surface mold on intact liners responds well to antimicrobial treatment; replacement is only needed when the liner itself has degraded or separated from the coil. We photograph the damage and show you before recommending either path.
How long does UV light installation take?
Most Spring installations finish in 2-3 hours, including mounting, wiring, and testing; we schedule these alongside HVAC cleaning to avoid a second trip charge.
Brands We Service in Spring

- Suzanne B."The before and after photographs of each run are the reason I used them. You cannot argue with what came out of the return."
- Marguerite O."The dryer vent was almost completely blocked with lint. They showed me the photograph and I understood immediately why the dryer had been running twice."
