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.

AfterTrusted Air Duct Cleaning for Frisco Homeowners
Air duct cleaning in Frisco, TX typically costs $350-$750 for a complete residential system and takes 2.5 to 4 hours depending on home size and contamination level. CleanRun Duct Repair & Cleaning has delivered written upfront pricing and a documented photo record on every job since 2013, serving more than 52,000 homes across North Texas. Call (940) 290-8552 for a free estimate with no obligation.
Frisco’s rapid growth since 2015 has filled neighborhoods like Phillips Creek Ranch, Newman Village, and The Canals at Grand Park with homes whose ductwork tells a consistent story: construction debris left in new builds, pollen loads from the Blackland Prairie, and dust accumulation from the caliche soil that defines this part of Collin County. We’ve photographed it all. The camera doesn’t exaggerate. When we show a homeowner the 2-inch debris ridge at the plenum (the central distribution box where all ducts connect), they see exactly what their HVAC system has been pushing through the registers (the visible vent covers in each room) for years.
CleanRun operates under the H.A.V.E.N. Standard, established in 2013 and independently owned and operated since day one. Every technician is background-checked, uniformed, and identified by name before arrival. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires a written price before any work starts - no exceptions, no “call for a quote,” no surprise add-ons once the truck is in your driveway. Haven Standard Clause 3, Verified Crews, means you know who is entering your home. And the 365-Day Done Right Promise, backed in writing on every job, means the work remains accountable long after the crew leaves.
What Our Air Duct Cleaning Service Includes
Residential Duct Cleaning
Residential Duct Cleaning covers the complete network of supply and return ducts in single-family homes, townhomes, and condominiums. Frisco homeowners in neighborhoods like Stonebriar and Starwood typically need this service every 3-5 years, though homes with pets, recent renovations, or allergy-sensitive residents may benefit from more frequent cleaning. CleanRun uses negative-pressure extraction (a method that pulls debris out under controlled suction rather than blowing it loose into your home) with Rotobrush and Nikro equipment, and every residential job concludes with a Documented Photo Record of every duct run - the individual sections of ductwork between the plenum and each register - delivered to you as a standard part of the job record.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Commercial Duct Cleaning addresses the larger, more complex HVAC systems found in Frisco’s retail spaces, medical offices, and multi-tenant buildings along Preston Road and the Dallas North Tollway. These systems move significantly more air volume, often through flexible ductwork and specialized filtration stages that residential equipment doesn’t match. CleanRun’s commercial crews work with Abatement Technologies containment systems to isolate work zones, minimizing disruption to operating businesses, and provide the same written upfront pricing and photo documentation required by Haven Standard Clause 1 - no estimate-by-square-foot games, no vague “scope to be determined” language.
Supply Duct Cleaning
Supply ducts carry conditioned air from your HVAC unit to each room, and they accumulate the debris that bypasses your filter - drywall dust from Frisco’s ongoing construction, pollen from the spring cedar and ragweed seasons, and ordinary household dust. When supply ducts are restricted, rooms at the end of long runs (common in the sprawling floor plans of Frisco’s newer subdivisions) receive inadequate airflow. CleanRun cleans each supply run individually, photographing the before condition at the boot connection and the after condition at the register, so you can verify that the debris visible in the first photo is absent in the second.
Return Duct Cleaning
Return ducts pull air back to your HVAC unit for reconditioning, and because they’re under suction rather than pressure, they collect larger debris - pet hair, dropped toys, construction scraps - that supply ducts typically don’t see. In Frisco homes built during the 2015-2020 construction surge, we’ve found return ducts partially blocked by leftover insulation batts and even discarded lunch wrappers from rough-in crews. CleanRun’s Return Duct Cleaning includes inspection of the return air pathway from the grille through the filter rack to the air handler, with photo documentation at each access point.
Full System Cleaning
Full System Cleaning encompasses supply ducts, return ducts, the plenum, the evaporator coil (the refrigerant-filled component that cools your air), and the blower assembly (the fan that moves air through the system). This is the service Frisco homeowners need when they’ve never had duct cleaning performed, when they’ve completed a renovation, or when they’re experiencing system-wide performance issues. CleanRun’s full system cleaning includes a written scope of work before we start, itemized by component, and the standard Documented Photo Record showing the condition of each element before and after service.
Video Inspection
Video inspection uses a flexible borescope camera to examine the interior of ductwork without disassembly, revealing debris accumulation, moisture damage, disconnected joints, or pest activity that isn’t visible from the registers. We recommend this service for Frisco homeowners who are unsure whether cleaning is needed, who want to verify the effectiveness of a previous cleaning by another company, or who are experiencing unexplained odors or airflow issues. CleanRun provides the video file as part of the job record, timestamped and labeled by duct run, so you have evidence of what we found - not just our word about it.

Brands We Service for Air Duct Cleaning
CleanRun’s equipment roster includes Honeywell media air cleaners and electronic air cleaners, which we encounter frequently in Frisco homes with integrated indoor air quality systems. We’ve serviced hundreds of Honeywell units and maintain familiarity with their filter geometries and airflow specifications, so cleaning doesn’t compromise the performance of connected filtration components. Our crews also work with Aprilaire whole-house dehumidifiers and ventilation systems common in the high-efficiency builds of Frisco’s newer developments - we know how to isolate these components during duct cleaning to protect their calibrated settings.
Abatement Technologies HEPA filtration equipment and Guardsman containment systems are part of our standard commercial and residential toolkit, not aspirational claims. Whether your home has Honeywell, Aprilaire, or any other make of HVAC or air quality equipment, we can clean the connected ductwork without voiding manufacturer warranties or disturbing integrated controls. If you’re unsure what equipment is installed, we’ll identify it during our initial inspection and note it on the written scope before any work begins.
BeforeAfterSigns You Need Air Duct Cleaning Right Now
- Visible dust blowing from registers when the system starts. This indicates debris accumulation in the supply ducts that has exceeded the system’s capacity to contain it. In Frisco, we see this most often in homes within a mile of active construction, where fine caliche dust infiltrates through intake pathways and settles in duct runs.
- Uneven heating or cooling between rooms on the same system. When one bedroom stays warm while another freezes, the ductwork - not the HVAC unit - is often the culprit. We’ve found supply runs in Frisco’s larger homes partially blocked by collapsed flexible duct or debris dams at elbow joints.
- Persistent odors that don’t respond to surface cleaning. Musty smells from the registers typically indicate microbial growth in the ductwork, often where condensation collects at low points in the system. Frisco’s humidity swings between spring and summer create ideal conditions for this.
- Increased allergy symptoms or respiratory irritation indoors. If symptoms improve when you leave home and worsen upon return, your HVAC system may be circulating accumulated allergens. We’ve documented pollen loads in Frisco ducts that correlate directly with the city’s peak cedar and ragweed seasons.
- It’s been more than five years since your last cleaning, or you’ve never had it done. New construction debris doesn’t disappear on its own, and Frisco’s building boom means many homes still contain the original dust load from 2015-2020 rough-in work. The photo record from a first-time cleaning often surprises homeowners who assumed “new” meant “clean.”
Our Air Duct Cleaning Process - Step by Step
- 1
Written estimate delivered on-site or by email before any work begins. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires this. Our technician inspects your system, identifies the number of duct runs, access points, and any complicating factors like integrated air quality equipment. You receive a single flat price for the complete scope - no per-vent pricing, no “additional if needed” clauses. This price is valid for 30 days whether you schedule immediately or not.
- 2
Protective setup and equipment staging. We lay protective coverings from the entry point to the HVAC location, isolate work zones with Abatement Technologies containment where needed, and stage our Rotobrush and Nikro negative-pressure extraction equipment. The technician confirms the scope with you again before touching any panel or register.
- 3
Photo documentation of every duct run before cleaning. The borescope camera enters each supply and return run through existing access points or carefully cut service openings. These “before” images are saved to your job record with timestamps and duct identifiers - “Supply Run 3, Master Bedroom East” - so there’s no ambiguity about what was found where.
- 4
Mechanical agitation and negative-pressure extraction. We use powered brush systems to dislodge debris from duct walls, immediately capturing it under controlled suction rather than releasing it into your living space. The plenum, evaporator coil, and blower assembly are cleaned according to the written scope. All debris is contained and removed from your property.
- 5
Post-cleaning photo record, system test, and final documentation. The borescope re-enters each run to capture “after” images. We run the HVAC system to verify normal operation, check for air leaks at resealed access points, and deliver your complete job record: written scope, before-and-after photos, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise document. If anything in the photo record doesn’t match your expectations, we address it before leaving.
How Much Does Air Duct Cleaning Cost in Frisco?
A typical residential duct cleaning in Frisco runs $350-$550 for homes up to 3,500 square feet with 8-12 duct runs. Larger homes in neighborhoods like The Grove or later phases of Phillips Creek Ranch, with 15-20 runs and integrated air quality equipment, typically range $550-$750. Full system cleaning including the evaporator coil and blower assembly adds $150-$250 to these base ranges. Commercial systems are scoped individually based on square footage, duct complexity, and containment requirements.
Several factors affect where your home falls in these ranges. The number of duct runs is the primary driver - more runs mean more access points, more cleaning time, and more photo documentation. Accessibility matters too: ducts in finished attics or behind drywall require more labor to reach than those in open crawl spaces. The contamination level affects time on site - a first-time cleaning of a 2017 build with construction debris remaining takes longer than maintenance cleaning of a system we’ve serviced before. Integrated components like Honeywell electronic air cleaners or Aprilaire dehumidifiers require additional isolation steps.
The most reliable way to avoid overpaying is to demand the same documentation CleanRun provides: a written scope itemizing what will be cleaned, a flat price for that scope, and photo evidence of results. Be cautious of quotes below $250 - they typically cover only register vacuuming, not duct run cleaning, or they use the low entry price to sell expensive add-ons once inside your home. CleanRun’s Free Second Opinion on Any Written Estimate lets you bring a competitor’s quote; we’ll put our number next to it in writing, with no obligation to schedule with us.
Every estimate is free, delivered in writing, and valid for 30 days. Call (940) 290-8552 to schedule yours.

Frequently Asked Questions - Air Duct Cleaning in Frisco
Air duct cleaning is the mechanical removal of accumulated debris from the interior surfaces of your HVAC ductwork, including dust, pollen, construction debris, pet dander, and in some cases microbial growth. CleanRun’s process uses powered brush agitation with simultaneous negative-pressure extraction to dislodge and capture this material without releasing it into your home. The Documented Photo Record shows you exactly what was removed from each duct run - not a generic “after” shot, but your specific ductwork before and after service.
A typical residential duct cleaning in Frisco takes 2.5 to 4 hours for a home with 8-12 duct runs, depending on contamination level and accessibility. Full system cleaning including the evaporator coil and blower assembly extends this to 4-6 hours. Commercial projects vary by scope. CleanRun schedules only one major job per crew per day, so your home receives uninterrupted attention - no technicians rushing to a second appointment.
Residential duct cleaning in Frisco typically costs $350-$550 for standard homes and $550-$750 for larger properties with more duct runs or integrated air quality equipment.

Yes. CleanRun regularly services ductwork connected to Honeywell, Aprilaire, and other major HVAC and indoor air quality brands. Our crews are trained to isolate and protect integrated components during cleaning, and we use equipment from Abatement Technologies and Guardsman that meets or exceeds manufacturer specifications for compatibility. We’ll identify your specific equipment during the initial inspection and note any required isolation steps on the written scope.
CleanRun does not promise same-day service because duct cleaning is a scheduled, documented process that requires proper preparation and cannot be rushed without compromising the photo record and quality verification. For suspected blockages, post-water-damage concerns, or post-renovation verification needs, we can often arrange video inspection within 24-48 hours. All calls are answered by a live person, 24/7, who can assess urgency and schedule appropriately.
Every CleanRun job is backed by the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if the work is not right, we make it right, documented in writing on every job record under Haven Standard Clause 5. This is not a manager-discretion policy - it’s a written guarantee that remains enforceable for a full year. The Documented Photo Record provides the evidence baseline; if debris returns or access points leak within 365 days, we return to correct it at no charge.
Clear a path from your entry door to the HVAC system and ensure pets are secured in a separate area. You don’t need to move furniture from registers - our crews work around normal room arrangements. If you have specific concerns about certain rooms or have noticed symptoms tied to particular registers, note these before arrival so we can prioritize documentation. We’ll confirm any additional preparation needs when we call to confirm your appointment. Call (940) 290-8552 to schedule - estimates are free, and the written price arrives before any work begins.
