Duct Cleaning & Sealing in Dallas
In most Dallas homes, the ductwork runs through a 130° attic — and the average duct system leaks 20–30% of the air you paid to cool straight into that attic. Leaky returns pull attic dust and insulation fibers back in, which is why some homes need dusting twice a week no matter how good the filter is. Sealing and cleaning that ductwork is one of the highest-payback improvements in Texas HVAC.
Camera inspection first — photos before any work is proposed
Plenum and flex-duct runs in a Dallas attic — the connections where most homes quietly lose conditioned air.
Our duct cleaning is true source-removal — negative-pressure vacuum collection with agitation tools, done to NADCA-style standards, with before-and-after photos of your actual ducts. We'll also tell you honestly when cleaning isn't the answer: crushed, undersized, or badly deteriorated flex duct needs replacement, not a $99 blowout special.
Signs it's time to call
Dust returns within a day of cleaning
Classic sign of leaky return ducts pulling from the attic.
Rooms that never get cool
Disconnected or crushed flex runs are shockingly common — we find them with a visual inspection.
Musty smell when the AC starts
Biological growth in ducts or on the coil; cleaning plus a UV lamp addresses it at the source.
Bills climbing year over year
Duct leakage grows as tape joints fail with age and attic heat.

“We recently had an AC unit replaced with Strike Force and couldn't be happier! Toby did an excellent job helping us select a unit that met all our needs. It has fixed our humidity issue. The price for the job was very competitive, the install went very smoothly and everything was left clean.”

“They came out and fixed our A/C same day, on a Sunday, when it was 103 outside.”

Duct Cleaning & Sealing FAQs
Is duct cleaning worth it, or a scam?
Both exist. The $99 'whole-house special' is usually a blower job that stirs dust up rather than removing it. Legitimate source-removal cleaning matters after renovations, for visible growth or vermin, or ducts that have never been cleaned — and we scope yours first and show you exactly what's there.
How much cooling do leaky ducts really waste?
Field studies consistently find 20–30% supply loss in typical attic duct systems. In a Dallas summer that's real money every month — sealing usually pays for itself within a couple of cooling seasons.
How often should ducts be cleaned?
Every 5–8 years for most homes, sooner after major renovation or if you have shedding pets and allergies. Sealing, once done properly with mastic, lasts decades.
Can you replace ductwork instead?
Yes — when flex duct is crushed, undersized, or deteriorated, we design and install new duct systems sized to deliver even airflow to every room.
