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.

AfterFast, Reliable Air Duct Cleaning Across Converse
Air duct cleaning in Converse, TX typically runs $350-$650 for a full residential system, with most jobs completed in a single morning or afternoon. Our crews dispatch from the San Antonio office and carry Rotobrush and Nikro equipment sized for the single-story ranch homes that dominate Converse neighborhoods. Call (323) 918-4345 for a written estimate before any work starts.
We know Converse well. Our technicians have cleaned ducts in the older subdivisions west of Converse-Connverse Road, in the neighborhoods tucked behind Loop 1604, and throughout the tracts that filled in during the 1980s base expansion. The housing stock here is different from what you’ll find in newer Cibolo or Schertz builds, and the maintenance history is different too. That matters when we’re deciding which tools to bring and how to price the job honestly.
Why Morton’s Air Duct Cleaning Is Converse’s Preferred Air Duct Cleaning Company
We’ve been part of the Cedarwell family since 2005, and our reputation in Converse has grown through straightforward pricing and crews who treat homes like their own. Paul Adeyemi leads our operation, and he’s particular about the details: shoe covers on before anyone steps past the entry, drop cloths under every access point, and quiet tool settings when there’s a toddler napping or a dog anxious about strangers.
Our Air Duct Cleaning in Converse customers often mention the same things in feedback. They like that we send a photo of the clean-up before the crew leaves. They like that the price on the invoice matches the written estimate they approved. And they like that a live person answers the phone when they call, day or night, not a voicemail tree.
Response time to Converse is typically next-day or within two business days, depending on the season. We’re not going to promise same-day dispatch because duct cleaning is a scheduled job that deserves proper setup time, not a rushed visit between emergency calls. That’s how you get a thorough clean without the mess left behind.
Air Duct Inspection in Converse
Air Duct Inspection in Converse starts with understanding the house. Most homes here are 1970s-1990s ranch-style builds with flex-duct systems that have endured decades of Bexar County clay soil shifting their foundations, plus rental turnover rates far higher than owner-occupied suburbs. Our inspection checks what the registers can’t show: collapsed inner liners, separated collar joints above the air handler, and pollen loading that standard filter changes never reach.
A typical inspection in Converse runs $125-$195 and includes video documentation of the duct interior. We bring this equipment on every inspection call, not just when asked. You’ll see what we see before we recommend any cleaning.
Video Inspection for Hidden Damage
We feed a camera through the supply and return trunks to spot collapsed flex-duct sections and disconnected joints that restrict airflow without ever showing dust at the vent. In Converse’s older ranch homes near the base perimeter, we find this damage in roughly one of every three inspections. The camera doesn’t lie, and the footage belongs to you.
System Performance Testing
We measure static pressure and airflow at the registers to quantify what the camera reveals. A collapsed liner might show no visible symptoms while cutting airflow by 30 percent. Numbers make the case for repair or replacement, not just our recommendation.
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in Converse
Residential Air Duct Cleaning in Converse addresses a specific set of problems that repeat across this market. The humid subtropical climate means central AC runs eight to nine months annually, pulling particulate through the system faster than in drier parts of Texas. Layer on Hill Country cedar pollen from December through February, plus decades of rental occupancy with no service records, and you get ducts that need more than a surface vacuum.
Our Air Duct Cleaning crew uses source-removal methods with agitation tools under HEPA filtration, following NADCA standards. A full residential clean in Converse typically runs $350-$650 depending on system size and accessibility. We clean supply ducts, return ducts, the trunk lines, and the air handler cabinet. Every job gets a written price before we start.
Protecting Your Home During Service
Shoe covers and drop cloths are standard, not optional. We cover floors from the entry to each register, protect furniture near access points, and use the quietest tool settings when kids or pets are present. Our technicians are background-checked and uniformed, working to the Cedarwell C.A.R.E. values on every visit.
Pet-Safe and Family-Conscious Practices
We ask about pets before we arrive and adjust our approach accordingly. No harsh chemical treatments unless specifically requested. We work around nap schedules when possible. The goal is cleaner air without disrupting the household routine.
Trusted Brands We Service in Converse
Our vans carry professional equipment from Rotobrush, Nikro, and Abatement Technologies, not rental-grade machines that lose suction halfway through a job. Rotobrush brush-and-vac systems handle the flexible ductwork common in Converse’s ranch homes without damaging aged inner liners. Nikro HEPA extractors capture the fine particulate that standard shop vacs recirculate. For homes needing supplemental air quality work, we stock Honeywell and Aprilaire components for fast turnaround without waiting on shipping. We choose the tool for the house, not the other way around.
Common Air Duct Cleaning Problems We See in Converse Homes
- Collapsed flex-duct liners in original 1970s-1990s ranch homes. The inner liner sags mid-span from age and negative pressure, pinching airflow before any visible dust accumulates at the register. We find this constantly in the neighborhoods west of Converse-Connverse Road near JBSA-Randolph.
- Disconnected collar joints at the air handler. Bexar County’s expansive clay soils shift foundations over decades, pulling supply and return runs apart above the unit. The system still runs, but conditioned air leaks into the attic or crawl space.
- Hill Country cedar pollen embedded in duct lining. Ashe juniper peaks December through February, and standard MERV filters don’t stop the fine particles that lodge in flex-duct pores. Agitation cleaning with HEPA extraction removes what filters miss.
- Silent neglect from repeated tenant turnover. PCS-rotating military families stay two to three years and rarely authorize proactive duct work. By the third or fourth consecutive rental, blower motors strain against blocked returns and lint pathways that no one documented.
Pricing for Air Duct Cleaning in Converse, TX
Here’s what honest pricing looks like for Converse’s market. A full residential system cleaning runs $350-$650 for most single-story ranch homes. Air duct inspection with video documentation runs $125-$195. Dryer vent cleaning, which we often pair with duct work in Converse’s older homes, adds $125-$225.
What moves the price? System size matters. A home with twelve registers takes longer than one with six. Accessibility matters too. Crawl-space trunks or attic air handlers add time. The condition of the ductwork matters most. Collapsed liners or disconnected joints need repair before cleaning, and we’ll show you exactly what we found before quoting that work.
We don’t do per-vent teaser pricing that balloons on arrival. One flat price per system, agreed in writing before we start. No surprises on the invoice. Call (323) 918-4345 for a free estimate.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning in Converse
Every three to five years for owner-occupants, but every two to three years if you’re in one of the rental-heavy tracts near JBSA-Randolph where prior tenants rarely serviced the system. The combination of clay-soil foundation movement, near-constant AC use, and pollen loading accelerates wear. Call (323) 918-4345 and we’ll check your service history to recommend an interval.
The PCS rotation cycle means three or four consecutive rental occupancies with no duct service records is common here, while owner-occupied Schertz or Live Oak neighborhoods see consistent maintenance. That rental churn concentrates flex-duct collapse and allergen loading in ways stable suburbs don’t experience. We see it in our inspection data every week.
Yes. Expansive clay shrinks and swells with moisture, shifting foundations over decades and pulling duct collar joints apart at the air handler. We find separated supply and return connections in roughly one of four Converse homes built before 1995. The damage is invisible from the living room but costs you in airflow and energy bills.
Ashe juniper pollen from December through February infiltrates return-air systems and embeds in flex-duct lining that standard filter changes never reach. If your allergies spike in winter despite clean filters, your ducts are likely holding reservoirs of prior seasons’ pollen. Source-removal cleaning with HEPA extraction clears it.
Yes. Every residential and commercial duct cleaning we perform in Converse follows NADCA source-removal guidelines, including agitation, negative-pressure extraction, and containment. We don’t cut corners on standards, and we document the work with before-and-after photos for your records.
