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 Company in Ennis, TX
Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning handles air duct and dryer vent cleaning for homes across Ennis, TX. Most houses here fall into two camps: the ranch-style and pier-and-beam builds from the 1950s through 1970s near downtown and along U.S. 287, and the newer flex-duct tract homes on the north and west sides. Both get hit hard by Ellis County’s cotton harvest season, and both need a slightly different approach. If you’ve noticed a fine gray-brown dust settling back on furniture within days of cleaning, call us at (323) 918-4345 and we’ll figure out exactly what’s happening inside your ducts.
Why Ennis Homes Are Different
Ennis sits right in the middle of Ellis County’s cotton-farming belt, and that changes a lot about what builds up in ductwork. From September through November, the cotton gins operating in and around town push out airborne lint and agricultural particulate. A good share of it gets pulled straight into residential return-air vents. Homeowners in suburban DFW cities simply don’t deal with this volume of foreign material moving through their systems every fall.
The older ranches and pier-and-beam homes here, many built during the 1950s through 1970s, often still run original or early-replacement duct sections through unconditioned attics that hit 140 to 150 degrees in a Texas summer. That heat accelerates insulation breakdown and joint separation, which then opens gaps exactly where the harvest lint wants to enter. On top of that, Ennis sits on Blackland Prairie shrink-swell clay. During dry summer cycles, that soil turns to a talc-like dust that rises and gets pulled in through return-air gaps. What technicians find in older homes near downtown Ennis is almost diagnostic of this county: a gray-brown clay dust mat, layered with cotton lint, packed into return-air plenums. In some 1960s builds around town, that mat can choke a secondary return within a single harvest season.
Our Main Ennis Services
Two jobs make up the bulk of what Ennis homeowners call Morton’s for, and each has its own detailed page so you can get the full picture before anyone arrives at your door.
Air Duct Cleaning in Ennis
Full air duct cleaning in Ennis means removing layered clay dust, pollen, and cotton lint from supply and return ducts, plus the plenums both sides of the blower. The harvest-season reality here matters: if gaps exist around filter frames, a single fall can pull more particulate into a system than a typical DFW suburb sees in two years. We run Rotobrush and Abatement Technologies equipment sized for ranch-style homes with tight mechanical closets and for larger two-story tract builds. From your first call through the written price and the photo walkthrough at the end, nothing is a surprise. Air Duct Cleaning in Ennis
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Ennis
Dryer vents in Ennis contend with lint building up on two fronts: the normal load from family laundry, and the extra fine particulate that blows around town during cotton ginning months. Vents running through unconditioned attic space in the older pier-and-beam homes are particularly prone to slow, stubborn clogs because the heat bakes lint onto duct walls. We use Nikro and Guardsman vent tools to clear the full run from dryer to exterior cap. Every dryer vent job gets a written price before work starts and a photo showing the vent before and after the clean. Dryer Vent Cleaning in Ennis

What pushes a job toward the higher end in Ennis is almost always the age of the house and the condition of the original ductwork. A 1960s ranch with a return plenum packed with cotton lint and clay dust takes longer than a clean, newer flex-duct system on the north side. Whatever the number, you get it in writing before any work starts, and that written price is the price you pay.
