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.
Trusted Air Quality & Sanitizing for Irving Homeowners
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Irving typically addresses mold, bacteria, allergens, and persistent odors inside your HVAC system and ductwork, with whole-home treatments ranging from $450 to $1,800 depending on the scope and method. CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Irving has delivered documented results to homeowners across Irving since 2013, and every job starts with a written price before any work begins. Call (682) 297-4068 for a free estimate with no obligation.
We’ve photographed the inside of 52,000+ duct systems, and what we’ve found in Irving homes built between 2015 and 2025 tells a consistent story: tight building envelopes trap contaminants, and standard HVAC filtration doesn’t address what’s already colonized inside the plenum (the main distribution box above your furnace) and individual duct runs. Our air quality and sanitizing service targets these reservoirs directly, with before-and-after documentation on every visit.
Irving’s climate doesn’t help. Summer humidity pushes into the 80% range, and when that moist air meets the cooler surfaces inside ductwork in Valley Ranch or Las Colinas, condensation creates ideal conditions for microbial growth. Winter temperature inversions trap outdoor pollutants, and your system recirculates them until they’re physically removed or neutralized. We treat homes in Hackberry Creek, Cottonwood Estates, and throughout the 75038, 75039, 75060, 75061, and 75063 zip codes with the same protocol: inspect, document, treat, verify. Our Air Quality & Sanitizing - Grand Prairie crew uses an identical process.
What Our Air Quality & Sanitizing Service Includes
Mold Treatment
Mold treatment targets active fungal growth inside ductwork, on the evaporator coil, and within the plenum. You need this service when you see visible growth at registers, smell a musty odor when the system cycles, or have confirmed elevated spore counts through air sampling. CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Irving applies an EPA-registered antimicrobial through controlled fogging or direct application, following negative-pressure extraction to remove loose spores and debris first. The photo record shows the treatment area before application and after the prescribed dwell time, so you can verify coverage.

Bacteria Sanitizing
Bacteria sanitizing neutralizes microbial contaminants that standard cleaning leaves behind, including Legionella, Staphylococcus, and other pathogens that can colonize HVAC components. This service matters most after water intrusion, during post-construction cleanup, or when household members have compromised immune systems or recurrent respiratory infections. Our crews use professional-grade application equipment from Abatement Technologies to deliver the sanitizing agent at the correct concentration and contact time, with the written scope specifying treated zones and products used. Haven Standard Clause 1 requires that price and scope are fixed before any chemical is introduced.

Odor Removal
Odor removal addresses persistent smells that originate inside the duct system rather than at the source, such as pet urine that has wicked into fiberglass liner, smoke residue from prior owners, or the bacterial breakdown products that cause “dirty sock syndrome” at the evaporator coil. We don’t mask odors with scented treatments; we identify the source through camera inspection, remove the contaminated material when possible, and apply oxidation or enzymatic treatments that break down the odor-causing compounds. The photo record includes the source location and the post-treatment condition, so you know the work reached the problem.

UV Light Installation
UV light installation places germicidal ultraviolet lamps at the evaporator coil or in the return air stream to inhibit microbial growth on wet surfaces and reduce airborne bioburden. This is a preventive measure, not a cleaning substitute, and it’s most effective in Irving homes where the coil stays wet for extended periods during cooling season. We size and position Honeywell or Aprilaire UV systems based on your air handler’s dimensions and airflow, with the installation documented in the photo record and the lamp replacement schedule noted in your job file. The written price includes the fixture, lamp, and electrical connection.

Air Purifier Install
Air purifier installation adds whole-home filtration or active purification downstream of your air handler, treating every cubic foot of conditioned air rather than relying on portable units in individual rooms. We install media filters, electronic air cleaners, and photocatalytic oxidation systems from Honeywell and Aprilaire, selected based on your home’s square footage, duct static pressure, and specific concerns like wildfire smoke, pollen, or VOCs from new construction materials. The written scope specifies the model, expected pressure drop, and maintenance interval. Haven Standard Clause 2 requires that we explain any ongoing filter or media cost before you approve the work.

Allergen Reduction
Allergen reduction combines mechanical removal with targeted treatment to lower concentrations of dust mite fragments, pet dander, pollen, and cockroach allergen inside the duct system. This service is most commonly requested in spring and fall when outdoor loads peak, and in homes where residents have diagnosed allergic rhinitis or asthma. We use HEPA-filtered negative-pressure extraction from Nikro equipment to capture particles down to 0.3 microns, followed by treatment of porous surfaces where allergens adhere. The photo record documents the pre-cleaning debris load and the post-cleaning condition of each duct run.

Brands We Service for Air Quality & Sanitizing

We’ve installed and serviced Honeywell whole-home air purifiers and UV systems in hundreds of Irving-area homes, from the basic F100 media air cleaner to the electronic F300E and the UV2400U germicidal lamp series. We stock replacement lamps and media for common Honeywell configurations, and our technicians carry the installation templates that ensure proper lamp placement for maximum coil coverage without restricting airflow. When we specify a Honeywell system, the written quote includes the model number, MERV rating or UV output, and the annual maintenance cost.
Aprilaire is another brand we work with regularly, particularly their 5000 series electronic air purifier and the 1910/1930 whole-home media units. We’ve found Aprilaire systems perform well in the larger homes common in Irving’s newer developments, where airflow demands exceed the capacity of standard one-inch filter slots. We also service and install equipment from Abatement Technologies for specialized remediation applications. Whether you have Honeywell, Aprilaire, or any other make, we can inspect your existing equipment, document its condition, and recommend treatment or replacement based on what we find.

AfterSigns You Need Air Quality & Sanitizing Right Now
- Musty or chemical odors when the HVAC cycles. Odors that intensify when the blower starts indicate contamination inside the duct system, not just at the source. We’ve traced persistent mustiness in Irving’s Las Colinas condos to mold growth on the evaporator coil, and chemical smells in newer Valley Ranch builds to off-gassing from duct sealants combined with inadequate ventilation.
- Visible mold or discoloration at registers or in the return. What you can see at the register opening typically represents a fraction of the total growth inside the duct run. In 2019, we documented a case in Cottonwood Estates where visible spotting at two registers corresponded to extensive colonization along a 24-foot flex duct run in the attic.
- Increased allergy or asthma symptoms indoors, especially at night. If symptoms worsen when you’re home and improve when you travel, your HVAC system is likely recirculating triggers. Irving’s cedar pollen season compounds this problem from December through February, when outdoor levels are high and indoor concentrations follow without proper filtration and duct hygiene.
- Recent water damage or roof leak, even if “fixed.” Moisture inside ductwork creates conditions for mold within 24 to 48 hours. We’ve treated homes in Hackberry Creek where a single overflow from a clogged condensate line led to growth throughout the plenum, discovered months later during routine maintenance.
- Home purchase within the last 12 months with no duct inspection history. New construction ducts often contain construction debris and moisture from open-system building, while resale homes carry the prior owner’s contaminants. Our photo record establishes a baseline you can reference for future comparison.
Our Air Quality & Sanitizing Process - Step by Step

- 1
System inspection and photo documentation. We access the plenum, evaporator coil, and representative duct runs with a borescope camera, capturing the pre-treatment condition. You see what we see before any price is discussed. This inspection typically takes 20 to 30 minutes and is included in the free estimate.
- 2
Written scope and fixed price. Based on the inspection findings, we deliver a written scope specifying the treatment areas, methods, products, and total price. Haven Standard Clause 1: no work begins until you approve the written price. There is no “call for a quote” - the number is in your hand.
- 3
Negative-pressure extraction and mechanical cleaning. Where accessible, we remove loose debris and contamination using HEPA-filtered extraction equipment from Nikro. This step improves treatment penetration and removes the organic load that would otherwise consume your sanitizing agent before it reaches live organisms.
- 4
Targeted treatment application. We apply the specified treatment - antimicrobial fogging, direct spray, UV installation, or air purifier mounting - according to manufacturer specifications for concentration, dwell time, and safety protocols. The technician records application details in the job file.
- 5
Post-treatment verification and photo record delivery. We re-inspect treated areas with the borescope, capture after photos, and compile the documented photo record for your review. The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies from this point: if the treatment doesn’t perform as specified, we make it right.
How Much Does Air Quality & Sanitizing Cost in Irving?
A typical mold treatment in Irving runs $650 to $1,400 for a single-family home with one HVAC system, depending on the extent of colonization, accessibility of the affected duct runs, and whether the evaporator coil requires separate treatment. For more details, see our Air Quality & Sanitizing pricing page. Bacteria sanitizing following standard cleaning typically adds $200 to $450. UV light installation with a Honeywell or Aprilaire fixture ranges from $800 to $1,500 including the lamp and electrical connection. Whole-home air purifier installation varies from $1,200 to $2,800 based on the unit capacity and any required duct modifications. Odor removal and allergen reduction are usually scoped as add-ons to duct cleaning, with combined packages starting around $450.
Several factors move the price within these ranges. Homes with multiple HVAC systems require separate treatment for each unit. Ductwork in finished basements or behind drywall limits access and may require additional labor. The severity of contamination affects product volume and application time. We don’t quote per-vent or per-room pricing - that structure invites upselling and obscures the true cost. Our written price covers the entire system specified in the scope, with no additional charges for “extra vents” discovered mid-job.
To avoid overpaying, request that any quote specify the treatment method, the products or equipment to be used, and whether the price includes post-treatment verification. Be cautious of quotes that bundle air quality services with duct cleaning at a single teaser price without defining the scope of each.

Frequently Asked Questions - Air Quality & Sanitizing in Irving

Air quality and sanitizing targets living contaminants like mold, bacteria, and allergens that standard mechanical cleaning doesn’t neutralize, using EPA-registered antimicrobials, UV light, or advanced filtration rather than just vacuuming debris. Duct cleaning removes loose particulate; sanitizing addresses what’s attached to duct surfaces and actively growing. We recommend sanitizing when inspection shows visible microbial growth, after water damage, or when occupants have persistent respiratory symptoms despite clean ducts.
A typical residential treatment takes three to six hours for a single HVAC system, including inspection, extraction, application, and post-treatment verification. UV light or air purifier installation adds one to two hours depending on electrical access and duct configuration. We schedule with a four-hour arrival window and notify you when the technician is en route.
Most Irving homeowners pay between $450 and $1,800 depending on the service type and home size, with mold treatment at the higher end and preventive sanitizing at the lower. We also provide Air Quality & Sanitizing - Dallas for properties just east of Irving. The exact price depends on system count, contamination severity, and accessibility.
