Before & After Gallery - CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Pearland

Air Duct Cleaning Before & After in Pearland, TX

We’ve cleaned ducts in Pearland since 2013, and we’ve learned one thing: homeowners trust what they can see. Every job we finish comes with a Documented Photo Record - inside every duct run, before and after. Below are representative projects showing what we find, how we fix it, and what the camera captured when we were done.

Heavy Debris Build-Up in Silverlake Ranch Return Plenum

The homeowner called after noticing reduced airflow from registers throughout the first floor. Our camera showed a 3-inch debris build-up at the first elbow of the return air plenum - the large central duct that pulls air back to your HVAC unit for reconditioning. We used Rotobrush contact cleaning combined with Nikro negative-pressure extraction to remove the accumulation without pushing debris deeper into the duct run. The after photos showed bare metal at every access point, and the homeowner reported stronger airflow at every register within hours.

Post-Construction Dust in Shadow Creek Ranch Supply Lines

This was a 2019 build in Shadow Creek Ranch where the original duct caps had been removed during final trim work, allowing drywall dust and insulation fragments into every supply line - the ducts that deliver conditioned air to each room. The camera showed gray coating on all interior surfaces, with visible particles at each register boot. We sealed the system at the air handler, then ran Abatement Technologies HEPA-filtered collection equipment through each duct run individually. The photo record documented clean metal at every branch, and we left the written scope and warranty under Haven Standard Clause 1 and Clause 6.

Pet Dander Accumulation in Country Place Older Home

A 1987 home in Country Place with three indoor pets and original fiberglass-lined ductwork. The camera showed layered pet hair matted to the liner surface, with visible restriction at two 90-degree elbows. We used reduced-agitation methods appropriate for aged fiberglass - aggressive brushing would have destroyed the liner and released fibers into the airstream. The Nikro vacuum with soft-bristle attachment lifted the accumulation without liner damage. After photos showed restored airflow surface at every access, and we noted the two restricted elbows for future monitoring in the written job record.

Mold-Prone Evaporator Coil Pan in Pearland Town Center Condo

Second-floor condo unit with a history of musty odor cycling through the system every summer. We found biological growth on the evaporator coil - the indoor heat exchanger that sits above your furnace or air handler - and moderate accumulation in the downstream plenum. The coil was cleaned with foaming cleaner and rinsed, the plenum received contact cleaning with HEPA containment, and we applied Honeywell-approved sanitizer to treated surfaces. The before photos showed green-black spotting on the coil fins; after photos showed clean aluminum with no visible biological material. We delivered the photo record same-day and flagged the condensate drain for the HVAC technician - it was partially blocked and contributing to the moisture problem.

Dryer Vent Blockage in Lakes of Highland Glen Townhome

The homeowner’s dryer was taking two cycles to finish a load, and the exterior vent hood showed no visible airflow during operation. Our camera found a packed lint bridge at the mid-point of a 22-foot vertical run - common in townhomes with roof-terminating vents. We used Nikro rotary brushing with reverse airflow to break the bridge and extract it without pushing material into the dryer cabinet. The after photo showed full 4-inch diameter through the entire run, and we verified 1,800+ FPM exhaust velocity at the terminal with an anemometer. The written record includes the airflow reading and the photo of the cleared duct.

Duct Sealing and Cleaning Combo in Westwood Estates

1960s ranch in Westwood Estates with original metal ductwork and visible gaps at trunk-line connections. The camera showed moderate debris plus daylight visible at two seams - conditioned air was leaking into the attic, and attic air was being drawn into the return. We cleaned all accessible duct runs first, then sealed accessible seams with mastic and applied foil tape at boot connections. The after photos show clean metal and sealed joints; we marked two inaccessible sections in the written scope for future access panel installation. The homeowner received the full photo record, the written price that was agreed before work started, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing.
