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.

Why Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Keene’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been serving Johnson County since 2005, and Keene’s mix of university-area homes and health-conscious families has shaped how we work here. Our Air Duct Cleaning team knows the difference between a 1958 ranch near Hillsboro Street and a 1970s split-level off Old Betsy Road, and we adjust our approach accordingly.
Keene homeowners call us back because we treat the house like it’s our own. Shoe covers and drop cloths go down before the equipment comes in. We use quieter Rotobrush and Nikro tools when there’s a toddler down for a nap. Every job ends with a photo of the clean-up, so you see the proof before we leave. And our 365-Day Done Right Promise means if something isn’t right, Paul Adeyemi and our crew make it right, full stop.
A live person answers our phone 24/7. No chatbot, no callback tag. When you’re juggling work and kids and a dog who barks at the doorbell, that matters.
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Keene
Air Duct Cleaning Services in Keene start with understanding what kind of house you have and what it’s been through. Most Keene homes were built between the 1950s and 1980s to house faculty and staff at Southwestern Adventist University, and many still run on original or patched galvanized ductwork, early flex duct, or deteriorated duct board. A typical full residential clean in Keene runs $350-$650, depending on system size, accessibility, and whether we find disconnected or crushed runs that need addressing. We don’t quote per-vent teaser prices that balloon once we’re in your driveway. One flat price per system, agreed in writing, before we start.
Residential Duct Cleaning
Our residential cleans cover supply ducts, return ducts, the air handler cabinet, and the blower motor assembly. In Keene’s older homes, we often find the real problem isn’t surface dust, it’s failed mastic at the plenum or insulation wrap that’s crumbled into the airstream after decades in a 140°F attic. We source-remove debris with HEPA-filtered negative pressure, then re-seal what we can access. If your home is near campus, expect us to spend extra time inspecting attic runs.
Commercial Duct Cleaning
Keene’s commercial buildings, from university-adjacent offices to retail along Highway 67, need scheduled cleans that don’t disrupt operations. We work evenings and weekends when needed, and we bring the same written-price protocol to every commercial job. No surprises on the invoice, ever.

HVAC Duct Cleaning in Keene
HVAC Duct Cleaning in Keene means more than pushing a brush through a tube. Your system has been fighting North Texas heat and humidity for decades, and the Blackland Prairie clay beneath your foundation hasn’t made it easier. Shrink-swell soil movement cracks slab returns and shifts crawl-space connections, pulling attic air and spring humidity into places it doesn’t belong. A typical HVAC duct cleaning in Keene runs $350-$650 for residential systems, with commercial quotes tailored to square footage and system complexity. We always inspect before we quote.
Full System Cleaning with Video Inspection
We run a camera first. In Keene, this step pays for itself. Disconnected runs behind drywall, crushed flex under slabs, and deteriorated duct board are common in university-area homes, and a clean that skips inspection just blows dust past the break. Our video findings go to you, not just to us.
Supply and Return Duct Cleaning
Supply runs push conditioned air to your rooms; returns pull it back. Both sides need attention, but in Keene’s 1960s-era homes, supply runs through unconditioned attics are usually the worse shape. We clean both, seal accessible joints with fresh mastic, and flag any runs that need replacement rather than cleaning.
Trusted Brands We Service in Keene
Our crews arrive with professional-grade equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, Aprilaire, and Abatement Technologies, not rental-shop gear that loses suction halfway through a job. For Keene homeowners, this means we can handle the specific challenges of older systems without waiting on parts. Rotobrush contact systems agitate debris in fragile flex duct without tearing it further. Nikro HEPA extractors maintain negative pressure so nothing escapes into your living space. We stock common fittings and sealants for Johnson County’s prevalent duct types, so most repairs finish same-day.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Keene Homes
- Crumbled attic flex insulation near campus. The 1960s homes clustered around Southwestern Adventist University were built with supply runs through unconditioned attics with minimal insulation wrap. Sixty years of 140°F July heat has degraded that wrap into debris that sheds directly into your airstream. We find this on nearly every job in that core neighborhood zone.
- Failed mastic at plenum and trunk joints. Decades of vibration and seasonal foundation movement from Blackland Prairie clay soils open gaps that draw attic dust and humid spring air into the system. Cleaning without re-sealing just invites the problem back.
- Disconnected or crushed runs in incremental additions. Keene’s housing stock grew in phases around the university, and contractors sometimes left abandoned runs behind drywall or under slabs. A camera inspection finds these before we start, so we don’t waste your money pushing dust into a dead end.
- Mold risk from poorly sealed systems in sustained humidity. Keene’s cooling season runs May through early October, and high spring humidity gets trapped in leaky ductwork. We flag active mold for remediation before cleaning, and we seal accessible leaks to reduce future risk.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Keene, TX
Here’s what honest pricing looks like for Keene’s market. A typical residential full-system clean runs $350-$650. Smaller homes with straightforward access land at the lower end. Larger homes, multiple HVAC units, or the need to address disconnected runs and re-sealing push toward the higher end. Commercial systems are quoted by square footage and system count.
We don’t do per-vent pricing. That’s the industry trick that turns a $99 coupon into a $900 invoice. We give one flat price per system, in writing, before any work starts. Every time. No exceptions. Your estimate is free, and it includes the camera inspection. Call (323) 918-4345 to schedule.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Keene
We run a video camera inspection through every accessible run before we quote. On a 1964 ranch house off Campus Drive near Southwestern Adventist University, our tech found original flex supply runs with insulation wrap crumbled into debris that dusted the airstream every time the blower kicked on. Camera inspection lets us see breaks, collapses, and abandoned runs behind drywall or under slabs, so we quote for what you actually need, not what we hope to find. Call (323) 918-4345 to book a free inspection.
Your system runs almost continuously from May through early October, pulling far more air through the return than systems in milder climates. In Keene’s older homes, failed mastic at the plenum and deteriorated return ductwork also let attic dust bypass the filter and coat the blower. We clean the full air handler cabinet and blower assembly as part of every full-system job, not just the ducts. For a written quote on your system, call (323) 918-4345.
Yes. Keene sits on the Blackland Prairie, where shrink-swell clay soils cause seasonal foundation movement that cracks slab returns and shifts crawl-space connections. We’ve found gaps at trunk joints that draw 140°F attic air straight into the system, and cracked under-slab returns that pull in soil moisture. We inspect for this damage and re-seal accessible joints during every clean. Schedule a free estimate at (323) 918-4345.
It can be. Keene’s sustained cooling season and high spring humidity create conditions for mold growth inside poorly sealed duct systems, especially where attic air leaks in and condenses. We flag visible mold during camera inspection and recommend remediation before cleaning if we find active growth. Sealing leaks afterward reduces future risk. For an honest assessment of your system, call (323) 918-4345.
We protect your floors with drop cloths and shoe covers, run a camera inspection, then connect our Nikro HEPA-filtered negative pressure system to your trunk lines. We agitate debris with Rotobrush contact tools, source-remove it from supply and return ducts, the air handler, and blower assembly, then re-seal accessible joints with fresh mastic. We finish with a photo of the clean-up and your written invoice matching the quoted price. Most residential jobs in Keene take a morning or afternoon. Call (323) 918-4345 to schedule your free estimate.
