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.
Supply Duct Cleaning in Irving, TX
Our Air Duct Cleaning services focus specifically on the duct runs that carry conditioned air from your HVAC system outward to every room in your home – the registers you see on your floors, walls, and ceilings. In Irving, TX, supply duct cleaning typically costs $250 to $550 for a standard single-story home, completed in one visit, with a written price in hand before any panel comes off. If you’re seeing uneven airflow, visible debris at registers, or a musty smell that follows the air conditioning, the supply side of your duct system is almost always where the problem originates.

What Supply Ducts Actually Do (and Why They Get Dirty)
Your HVAC system has two duct networks. The return side pulls stale room air back to the air handler. The supply side pushes treated air back out. Supply ducts start at the plenum – a sheet metal box mounted directly on top of or beside your air handler – and branch out through the walls, floors, or attic space to every supply register in the house.
Because supply ducts are under positive pressure (air is being pushed through them, not pulled), any debris that settles inside them gets carried directly into the rooms where your family breathes. In Irving, the combination of sandy clay soil, high humidity in summer, and the city’s older housing stock – particularly homes built between 1975 and 1995 in neighborhoods like Valley Ranch, Heritage District, and Las Colinas – creates specific conditions we document repeatedly: fine caliche dust packed at first elbows, insulation fiber migration from flex duct connections, and mold-favorable moisture at registers near exterior walls.
Flex duct is common in Irving-area homes and collapses or sags over time, creating debris traps that rigid sheet metal systems rarely form. When our Video Inspection reaches a collapsed section, the image tells the whole story before we say a word about what comes next.
When You Need Supply Duct Cleaning

- Uneven room temperatures across your home. If one bedroom in your Irving home runs noticeably warmer or cooler than the rest, a partially blocked supply run is a common cause. Debris accumulation at an elbow or damper reduces airflow to that register without affecting the others.
- Visible dust or debris at floor or ceiling registers. A thin grey film on the inside face of a register grille usually means the supply duct behind it is pushing debris-laden air. That film is the most visible fraction of what the camera finds deeper in the run.
- A musty or stale smell that gets worse when the AC turns on. In Irving’s humid summers, condensation can develop inside supply ducts – particularly in attic-routed flex duct that has lost its R-value – creating conditions where organic debris feeds microbial growth. The smell arrives when the fan pushes air through that section.
- Recent renovation work anywhere in the home. Drywall dust, insulation particles, and wood-cutting debris migrate into supply openings during any remodel. Irving’s older homes often have accessible duct boots that workers inadvertently leave uncovered during renovation. The photo record after a remodel clean consistently shows the difference.
- Your home was recently purchased and you have no cleaning history. A significant portion of the Irving homes we document had never had supply ducts cleaned since original construction. In a home that is 20 or 30 years old, that is decades of HVAC cycling pushing debris through duct runs that have never been photographed, let alone cleaned.
- Your HVAC system runs longer than it used to for the same temperature result. Restricted supply ducts reduce static pressure, which makes the air handler work harder and longer. If your energy bills have crept up without a clear reason, the supply side is worth documenting before assuming the equipment is at fault.

AfterOur Supply Duct Cleaning Process
- Written scope and price, delivered before work starts. Tomas Reyes or another CleanRun technician walks the home, counts every supply register, identifies the duct material (rigid sheet metal, flex, or a combination), and notes any existing damage – collapsed flex sections, disconnected boots, missing dampers. The written quote you receive reflects the exact scope for your home in Irving. Haven Standard Clause 1: the price does not change when the job starts.
- Pre-cleaning camera documentation of every supply run. Before any equipment is set up, we photograph the inside of each supply duct run from the register boot inward. The camera documents existing conditions: debris depth at elbows, fiber buildup, moisture indicators, and any structural issues. These images are yours – delivered as part of the standard job record when we leave.
- Negative-pressure containment at the plenum. We connect a negative-pressure extraction unit – typically the Nikro HC18000 on larger Irving homes – to the plenum or a central access point in the supply trunk. Negative pressure means the entire supply side of the duct system is under suction during cleaning, so dislodged debris moves toward the machine, not into your rooms. We seal off return registers during this phase to prevent cross-contamination.
- Mechanical agitation of each supply run. With negative pressure established, a technician works each supply run individually. We use rotary brush equipment to break debris loose from the duct walls – starting at the furthest register from the plenum and working back. Flex duct sections require a different brush profile than rigid sheet metal to avoid tearing the inner liner; our equipment selection accounts for the duct type documented in the pre-cleaning photos.
- Register and boot cleaning. Supply register grilles are removed, cleaned separately, and inspected for damage. Register boots – the metal collars that connect duct to the opening in the floor, wall, or ceiling – are vacuumed and wiped. Damaged boots are photographed and noted in writing; repair is quoted separately, never added to the bill without your approval.
- Post-cleaning camera documentation and job record delivery. Every supply run is re-photographed after cleaning using the same camera positions as the pre-cleaning pass. You receive a side-by-side record: what the duct looked like when we arrived, what it looks like now. This is the documentation that separates the work from vacuum noise. The written 365-Day Done Right Promise is included with every job record – if the work is not right, we make it right, in writing.
Supply Duct Cleaning Pricing in Irving

How Much Does Air Duct Cleaning Cost? (2026 Price Guide) - Irving, TX: supply duct cleaning runs between $250 and $550 for most single-story homes with 8 to 14 supply registers. Two-story homes with 15 or more registers typically range from $450 to $750. Written price, every time, before work starts – Haven Standard Clause 1 applies to every job regardless of size.
| Home Size / Configuration | Typical Supply Register Count | Irving Price Range |
|---|---|---|
| Single-story, under 1,800 sq ft | 8 to 11 registers | $250 to $380 |
| Single-story, 1,800 to 2,800 sq ft | 11 to 14 registers | $350 to $480 |
| Two-story, up to 3,500 sq ft | 14 to 18 registers | $450 to $620 |
| Two-story or large home, 3,500+ sq ft | 18+ registers | $580 to $750 |
What changes the price in Irving’s market
- Duct material. Flex duct, which is common in Irving homes built after 1985, takes longer to clean safely than rigid sheet metal because the inner liner is susceptible to damage from incorrect technique. Jobs that are predominantly flex duct run toward the upper end of the range.
- Access conditions. Attic-routed supply trunks in homes with low-pitch rooflines – common in the MacArthur Park and North Irving areas – require a technician to work in confined spaces that add time to the job.
- Degree of contamination documented at pre-cleaning camera pass. A home with a 2-inch debris pack at every elbow takes longer to clean thoroughly than one with surface-level dust. The pre-cleaning photos are what determine this, not a technician’s guess.
- Additional services. Duct repair, aerosol sanitizing with an Aprilaire-compatible solution, or UV light installation are quoted separately. Nothing is added to the supply duct cleaning invoice without your written approval.

FAQs – Supply Duct Cleaning
How is supply duct cleaning different from standard air duct cleaning?
Supply duct cleaning targets specifically the ducts that push conditioned air out to your rooms – the side of the system most directly connected to air quality at the register level. Standard air duct cleaning can mean different things to different companies; some focus only on the return side, some treat both. CleanRun’s full Air Duct Cleaning in Irving service covers both supply and return duct networks. If you’ve received a quote that doesn’t specify which side of the system is being cleaned, ask for clarification in writing before agreeing to anything. Call (682) 297-4068 and we’ll explain exactly what your Irving home’s system needs and put it in writing before work starts.
How often should supply ducts be cleaned in an Irving home?
For most Irving homes, every 3 to 5 years is a practical interval – but that number shifts based on documented conditions, not a calendar. A home with pets, recent renovation, or flex duct in a hot attic space may show meaningful contamination after 2 years. A home with sealed rigid duct and no significant indoor particle sources may look acceptable at 6 years. The pre-cleaning camera pass is what drives the recommendation, not a default upsell cycle. If you want to know where your system actually stands, the documentation will show you.
Can supply duct cleaning help with allergies or indoor air quality in Irving?
Cleaning documented debris from supply ducts reduces the particulate load that gets pushed into your rooms each time the HVAC fan cycles. In Irving, where spring oak pollen and summer dust are consistent contributors to indoor air particle counts, supply ducts that haven’t been cleaned in several years carry a meaningful accumulation of that material. That said, duct cleaning addresses what is inside the duct; it doesn’t replace filtration or address moisture sources. We document what we find before and after so you can see the difference in concrete terms, not marketing language.
What if something is wrong with a supply duct during cleaning – a tear in the flex liner, a disconnected boot?
If the camera or the cleaning process reveals damage – a torn flex liner, a disconnected or crushed section, a register boot that has pulled away from the subfloor – it gets photographed immediately and written into the job record. A repair quote is prepared separately. Nothing is added to the original invoice without your written approval first. The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers the cleaning work; any repair work carries its own written scope and written warranty. CleanRun technicians are background-checked and trained to document, not to upsell. Call (682) 297-4068 if you want to know more about how we handle discovered damage.
