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 HVAC Cleaning Across Aubrey
HVAC cleaning in Aubrey typically runs $450 – $1,100 per system depending on home size and how much buildup has accumulated, and the job itself takes about 3 – 5 hours for a full system. That’s the honest range, and we hand you a written price for the whole system before any work starts. No per-vent math, no door-knock surprises. If you live off F.M. 2931, over near the new developments by Paloma Creek, or out toward Pilot Point Road, call (737) 727-2314 and you’ll talk to a real person who can walk you through what your home actually needs.
We’re the HVAC Cleaning team at Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Relay Home Co. family founded in 2005, and we work throughout Aubrey, TX. Our technicians know what North Texas dust and humidity do to ductwork, and they run professional-grade equipment built for source removal, not surface touch-ups. Omar Haddad leads our crew, and every booking includes a live trackable arrival window and before-and-after photos of your own ducts.
Why Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning Is Aubrey’s Preferred HVAC Cleaning Company
Homeowners around Aubrey call us because we explain the work in plain English and price the whole system up front, not per vent. The per-vent model is a trap on two-story Aubrey homes with multiple returns and long supply runs. A $29 “whole house” coupon turns into $800 once the tech counts every register and adds a “furnace cleaning” fee. We don’t do that. You get one flat price per system, written down, before a single duct is touched.
Our techs are background-checked, uniformed, and you’ll know their name before they pull up. Dispatch runs out of the Dallas-Fort Worth office, and crews serve Aubrey locally on a scheduled route. The Relay Standard means every Aubrey job includes a live arrival time you can track from your phone, photo documentation of the actual work, and a digital invoice payable by link. No four-hour windows, no wondering who’s at the door.
Omar Haddad and the crew carry Rotobrush agitation systems, Nikro HEPA vacuums, and Abatement Technologies containment units. That’s the difference between knocking debris loose and actually pulling it out of your home under negative pressure. We’re proud of the work, which is why every job carries the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If the work isn’t right within 365 days, we come back and make it right at no charge.
Furnace Duct Cleaning in Aubrey
Furnace duct cleaning in Aubrey is about pulling the fine mineral grit and lint out of your supply and return ducts so your gas furnace isn’t circulating it through every room. Aubrey sits on the Blackland Prairie, and that topsoil is heavy clay and silt. It finds its way into homes, gets pulled through the return registers, and settles in duct runs where it keeps recirculating. Add in humid Gulf air that makes dust stick to duct walls, and you get a crust that a standard register vacuum never touches. A complete furnace duct cleaning here runs $450 – $750 for a typical single-system home.
Supply And Return Duct Cleaning
We cut the system to negative pressure, run Rotobrush agitation tools through supply and return ducts back to the air handler, and photograph every section before we seal it back up. Your ducts look like bare galvanized metal when we’re done. In Aubrey’s newer construction, we often find drywall dust from the build phase still sitting in return drops years later.
Air Handler And Blower Cleaning
The blower wheel collects a layer of North Texas dust that throws it out of balance and cuts airflow. We pull the blower, clean the wheel and housing, and check the motor. On a two-story Aubrey home running both a heat pump and a gas furnace, this is the part that makes the biggest difference in how hard the system has to work.
AC Coil Cleaning in Aubrey
AC coil cleaning in Aubrey is about restoring the evaporator coil to clean metal so your system can actually pull heat out of the air. Aubrey’s humid summers mean the coil runs wet for months at a time. That wet surface grabs every particle that slips past the filter and bakes it into a mat that insulates the coil and drives your utility bill up. We clean the evaporator coil, the condenser coil, and treat the coil surface afterward. AC coil cleaning in Aubrey runs $350 – $600 as part of a full HVAC cleaning, or $200 – $400 as a targeted service.
Evaporator Coil Cleaning
We access the coil, apply a professional-grade cleaner, and rinse it clean without flooding your air handler. The Aprilaire or Honeywell filter housing gets checked at the same time. A clogged evaporator coil on an Aubrey heat pump is the most common reason a two-story home has a hot upstairs and a freezing downstairs.
Condenser And Heat Exchanger Cleaning
The outdoor condenser in Aubrey gets coated with cottonwood fuzz, grass clippings, and clay dust. We wash the fins, straighten what’s bent, and check refrigerant pressures. The heat exchanger gets a visual inspection and cleaning as part of the full HVAC cleaning, so your gas furnace isn’t burning through a layer of dust that cuts efficiency.
Trusted Brands We Service in Aubrey
We work on all major residential brands across Aubrey, including Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, and American Standard. When filtration is part of the job, we stock Aprilaire and Honeywell media filters and Guardsman filtration products. If your system has an Abatement Technologies containment unit from a prior remediation job, we’re familiar with those too and can service them as part of the package. Most filter refills and common coil components are on our trucks, which means we rarely have to order a part and come back a second day. That’s a real advantage when you live in Aubrey and the next supply house run is 30 minutes into Denton.
Common HVAC Cleaning Problems We See in Aubrey Homes
- Drywall dust in return drops. Aubrey grew fast through the 2010s and early 2020s, and a lot of that construction dust never left the ductwork. We regularly pull several pounds of white gypsum dust out of homes that were “cleaned” before move-in.
- Clogged evaporator coils from humid air. The Gulf humidity that sits over Aubrey from May through September keeps coils wet, and wet coils catch everything. A coil can go from clean to matted in two summers.
- Per-vent pricing that inflates on multi-system homes. Aubrey has a lot of two-story plans with separate upstairs and downstairs systems. Per-vent pricing turns those into $1,200+ quotes fast, and we hear about it weekly.
- Shop-vac “cleaning” that pushes debris deeper. Crews that only vacuum registers knock debris back into the air handler and blower. Without negative-pressure containment, it’s not cleaning; it’s relocating dust inside your system.
Pricing for HVAC Cleaning in Aubrey, TX
Here’s what honest HVAC cleaning actually costs in Aubrey. A single-system home, meaning one furnace and one AC coil, runs $450 – $750 for a full clean including ducts, blower, evaporator coil, and condenser. A two-system home runs $750 – $1,100.

FAQs About HVAC Cleaning in Aubrey
Per system, always. We quote one flat price for the entire HVAC system before any work starts, and that’s the price you pay. Per-vent pricing is how crews inflate a $450 job into $1,200 on Aubrey’s two-story, multi-system homes. Call (737) 727-2314 for a free whole-system quote.
No. HVAC cleaning in Aubrey is a scheduled job that takes 3 – 5 hours, and doing it right means we don’t squeeze it between other calls. When you book, you get a live trackable arrival window through the Relay Standard, so you know exactly when we’re coming. Most Aubrey customers are scheduled within 3 – 7 days.
Most Aubrey homes need a full HVAC cleaning every 3 – 5 years. Homes with pets, recent remodeling, or a lot of traffic off gravel and dirt roads may need it sooner, around every 2 – 3 years. If you just moved into a new construction home in Aubrey and the builder never cleaned the ducts after drywall, do it once now, then you’re on the normal schedule. A good filter and a clean condenser mean you’re probably not due yet. We’ll tell you straight if the ducts don’t need work.
You get photographs of your own ducts, not a stock image or a neighbor’s job. We run a camera into the supply and return ducts before cleaning, then photograph the same sections after. You’ll see the bare galvanized metal where dust and debris used to be. The photos arrive with your digital invoice, and they’re your proof the work happened.
We clean and service all major HVAC brands, including Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, and American Standard, and we stock Aprilaire, Honeywell, and Guardsman filtration products. Our cleaning equipment is Rotobrush for agitation, Nikro for HEPA vacuum extraction, and Abatement Technologies for containment. If your Aubrey home has a specific filter cabinet or an air purification unit, let us know when you book, and we’ll have the right filter on the truck.
Call (737) 727-2314 for a free estimate. We’ll ask a few questions about your home, give you a written price per system, and schedule a time that works for you. No vague ranges once we’ve seen the home, no price changes at the door.
