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 Galena Park, TX
HVAC cleaning in Galena Park typically runs $350-$850 for a whole system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. Galena Park’s post-war housing stock and Ship Channel proximity mean ductwork here collects oily industrial particulates, not ordinary dust, making professional cleaning a documented indoor air quality intervention rather than routine maintenance. Call (346) 423-3631 for a written price before any work starts.
Why Galena Park Homes Are Different
Galena Park sits hard against the Houston Ship Channel petrochemical corridor, and that geography reshapes what we find inside local ductwork. The refineries and ethylene plants running day and night deposit combustion byproducts and chemical residue that ordinary suburbs never see. Our crews regularly pull debris with a greasy, dark-film residue that homeowners recognize immediately - it’s distinct from household dust and a direct signature of Channel emissions.
The housing stock compounds the problem. Most Galena Park homes are modest post-WWII bungalows and ranch-style builds from the late 1940s through the 1970s, many still running original or early-replacement flex duct with deteriorating mastic seals. That aging insulation traps industrial particulate over decades. Houston’s subtropical humidity drives year-round condensation inside ductwork, promoting mold growth, and Galena Park’s low-lying elevation along the Ship Channel made large portions of the city especially vulnerable during Hurricane Harvey in 2017. Flood events drove silt and biological material directly into duct systems of homes that looked structurally intact from the curb.
Our Main Galena Park Services
Galena Park homeowners call us most often for these three services:
Air Duct Cleaning in Galena Park
We clean every duct run with negative-pressure extraction, photographing the interior before and after so you can see what came out. In Galena Park, that often means removing oily, dark-film residue from Ship Channel emissions rather than ordinary household dust. Every job ends with a written scope and our Documented Photo Record. Air Duct Cleaning in Galena Park is priced as a flat system rate, never per vent.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Galena Park
Galena Park’s humidity and lint buildup from frequent dryer use in older homes create genuine fire hazards. We run a rotary brush through the full vent line to the exterior termination, then verify airflow with a meter reading you can see. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Galena Park includes a written price before we start and photo documentation of the vent interior.
Duct Repair & Sealing in Galena Park
Aging flex duct and failed mastic seals are common in Galena Park’s post-war housing stock. We replace collapsed or torn sections and seal leaks with mastic and metal-backed tape, then pressure-test the system. Duct Repair & Sealing in Galena Park restores airflow and keeps conditioned air inside your living space.

BeforeAfterHVAC Cleaning in Galena Park
HVAC cleaning in Galena Park addresses systems choked with industrial particulates, mold from chronic humidity, and flood residue from past storm events. The evaporator coils, blower assemblies, and air handlers in local homes work harder than their designers intended because the air passing through them carries more than ordinary dust. We document every component with before-and-after photography so you can verify the work yourself. HVAC Cleaning from CleanRun follows the H.A.V.E.N. Standard on every Galena Park job.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
Signs you need it
Ice buildup on the coil, weak airflow from registers, or your AC running continuously without cooling the house.
What it costs in Galena Park
Evaporator coil cleaning in Galena Park typically runs $180-$340 for accessible units.
How we do it
We remove the access panel, apply foaming cleaner to the coil fins, rinse with low-pressure water, and photograph the coil before and after.
Blower Cleaning
Signs you need it
Vibration or noise from the air handler, uneven airflow between rooms, or dust puffing from registers when the system cycles on.
What it costs in Galena Park
Blower cleaning in Galena Park typically runs $150-$280.
How we do it
We remove the blower assembly, clean the wheel and housing with compressed air and solvent, balance the wheel, and reinstall with torque-checked hardware.
What HVAC Cleaning Costs in Galena Park
| Item | Typical range in Galena Park |
|---|---|
| Evaporator coil cleaning | $180-$340 |
| Blower cleaning | $150-$280 |
| Full HVAC system cleaning | $350-$850 |
How do I know my HVAC system needs cleaning versus just a filter change?
If you’re changing filters monthly but still seeing dust accumulation, smelling musty odors, or noticing weak airflow, the contamination is inside the components, not the filter. Call (346) 423-3631 and we’ll inspect the coil and blower with you, photo in hand.
Can flood damage from Hurricane Harvey still affect my HVAC system?
Yes, sediment and biological material can remain in drain pans, duct boots, and insulation years after the water recedes, corroding coils and breeding mold. We document any flood residue we find and show you before proceeding.
Air Quality & Sanitizing in Galena Park
Air quality and sanitizing in Galena Park targets the specific contamination profile of Ship Channel proximity: oily particulates that standard filtration misses, mold thriving in humid ductwork, and bacterial growth in flood-affected systems. The post-war homes here often lack modern air sealing, so outdoor industrial emissions migrate indoors continuously. We treat the source, not the symptom, with documented results you can see. Air Quality & Sanitizing from CleanRun includes our 365-Day Done Right Promise on every Galena Park job.
Mold Treatment
Signs you need it
Musty odors when the AC runs, visible spotting on registers or duct boots, or family members with persistent respiratory irritation.
What it costs in Galena Park
Mold treatment in Galena Park typically runs $400-$950 depending on contamination extent and duct accessibility.
How we do it
We apply EPA-registered antimicrobial through the duct system, treat the evaporator coil and drain pan, and deliver before-and-after photo documentation of treated surfaces.
UV Light Installation
Signs you need it
Recurring mold after professional cleaning, or a household with allergy sufferers, infants, or immunocompromised residents.
What it costs in Galena Park
UV light installation in Galena Park typically runs $350-$650 including the lamp and electrical connection.
How we do it
We mount a UV-C lamp in the supply plenum near the coil, wire it to the air handler’s 24-volt circuit, and show you the installation point in your photo record.
What Air Quality & Sanitizing Costs in Galena Park
| Item | Typical range in Galena Park |
|---|---|
| Mold treatment | $400-$950 |
| UV light installation | $350-$650 |
| Whole-system air quality package | $600-$1,200 |
Is mold in my ducts dangerous, or just unpleasant?
Active mold growth releases spores that irritate airways and can trigger asthma or allergic reactions, particularly in children and older adults. We identify the species when possible and document our treatment with photos of affected surfaces before and after.
Will a UV light actually prevent mold from coming back?
A properly installed UV-C lamp in the air handler inhibits mold growth on the coil and nearby surfaces by breaking down cellular structure, but it does not clean existing debris. We install UV lights only after thorough cleaning, per manufacturer specifications.
