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.

Why Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning Is Five Corners’s Preferred HVAC Cleaning Company
Five Corners covers a mix of 1970s ranch homes with original flex duct and newer builds with sealed, well-designed systems. That variation means a one-size-fits-all cleaning package doesn’t fit, and our HVAC Cleaning team prices by the system, not per vent. We quote a flat number before any tool comes off the truck, so a homeowner near 94th Avenue isn’t surprised by a per-register tally at the end of the job.
Omar Haddad leads the team here, and every booking follows the same standard: a live arrival window you can track, background-checked uniformed techs, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise behind it all. If the work isn’t right within a year, we come back and correct it at no charge. That’s not a selected-jobs deal. It’s every job, including HVAC Cleaning in Five Corners.
Response time to Five Corners is straightforward: when you call, a live person answers and books you a scheduled arrival window, not an all-day range. We do not promise same-day service because proper HVAC cleaning is a planned, methodical job. What we do promise is a written price, a knowable schedule, and photo proof of the condition before and after.
AC Duct Cleaning in Five Corners
AC Duct Cleaning in Five Corners homes means removing the dust, pet hair, and construction debris that accumulates inside the supply and return runs serving the cooling coil and air handler. On older Five Corners properties, especially ranch homes built in the 1970s, we often find flex duct that has sagged or separated, pulling attic dust into the airstream. On newer builds near the eastern stretches of the neighborhood, the issue is more often fine dust and drywall debris from original construction lingering in the returns. A typical AC duct cleaning here runs $250 to $425 as part of a full system job. Omar Haddad’s crew photographs the trunk line and branch runs so you see what was removed, not just what we say was removed.
Coil and Condenser Care
An evaporator coil caked in Five Corners dust can raise cooling costs and reduce airflow, especially during the warmest weeks when dry air pulls extra particulates through the filter. We clean the coil surface and drains, then treat the coil to slow future buildup. This does not replace annual AC service, but it keeps the system moving air the way it should.
What the Photos Show
After we clean, we photograph the supply plenum, the return drops, and the blower compartment so you can compare against the pre-cleaning images. No other proof matters as much: your own ducts, before and after, same house, same run.
Furnace Cleaning in Five Corners
Furnace Cleaning in Five Corners involves more than the ducts. It includes the blower wheel, the blower motor compartment, and the furnace cabinet where dust and hair collect against the heat exchanger. In Five Corners homes with older furnaces and narrow returns, we routinely pull several pounds of debris from the blower alone, which restores airflow and reduces the burning-dust smell on first startup in fall. A complete furnace-side cleaning typically runs $300 to $500 depending on access and whether the blower wheel must be pulled and washed. We give the price before starting, and we honor it.
Blower and Air Handler Access
If the blower wheel is caked, the fan moves less air and the furnace works harder. We remove the blower assembly when needed, clean the wheel fins, and wipe the housing. Skipping this step is common in low-bid cleanings that only hit the visible branch runs, which leaves the largest debris mass in place.
Heat Exchanger Check
While the blower is out, we visually check the heat exchanger for cracks or corrosion and photograph what we find. We do not repair exchangers, but we make sure you know what condition yours is in. If we see something that needs a licensed HVAC contractor, we tell you plainly.
Trusted Brands We Service in Five Corners
We work on all common residential equipment, and we keep parts and consumables suited to what Five Corners homes actually have: Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, and Coleman air handlers and furnaces. We run Rotobrush rotary agitation tools through the ducts and pair them with Nikro HEPA vacuums so loosened debris leaves through negative pressure, not through your living room. For furnace-side work, our techs regularly service blower assemblies across major brands without needing dealer authorization for basic cleaning and inspection. If a part needs replacement, we quote it before ordering.
Common HVAC Cleaning Problems We See in Five Corners Homes
- 1970s flex duct collapse: Older ranch homes in Five Corners often have flex duct that has collapsed or kinked over 40-plus years, choking airflow. We flag it when we find it and photograph the restriction so you can see what the system is fighting.
- Drywall dust from newer builds: Homes built in the last decade near the developing edges of the Orchards area sometimes still carry construction dust in the returns. It coats the coil and blower and keeps circulating until physically removed.
- Oversized filters doing little: We see homes where a high-MERV filter is forced onto a system not designed for it, which strains the blower and lowers airflow. A proper cleaning helps, but so does matching the filter to the system.
- Quad pricing from per-vent models: Five Corners homes vary in register count, and per-vent pricing punishes layouts with many small registers. We price by system, so a house with 15 supply runs pays the same flat number whether it has 12 or 16.

FAQs About HVAC Cleaning in Five Corners
We charge one flat price per system, never per vent. A per-vent model penalizes Five Corners homes with many small registers, which is most older ranches in the area. Your written quote is for the whole furnace-and-AC system, agreed before we start, and it does not change once the tech is inside. Call (737) 727-2314 for an exact number on your home.
Most Five Corners homes need a full HVAC cleaning every 4 to 6 years. Homes with pets, recent renovation dust, or residents with allergies may benefit sooner. If your ductwork was never cleaned and the home is 20-plus years old, the first cleaning usually shows visible junk in the photos. We will tell you if your system does not yet need the work.
We connect a Nikro HEPA vacuum to the air handler or furnace to create negative pressure, then run a Rotobrush rotary agitation tool through each supply and return run. Debris loosens and gets pulled into the vacuum, not blown into the room. After the ducts, we clean the blower wheel and compartment, then photograph everything before and after.
Yes. A standard full-system cleaning covers both the furnace side and the AC side in one scheduled visit, typically 3 to 5 hours depending on access and how much debris has built up. We plan the appointment around that window and give you the price before we begin. You get photos of both sides when we finish.
Because real HVAC cleaning is a methodical, multi-hour job, not a quick walkthrough. Rushing a duct cleaning means skipping the blower compartment or half the return runs. We schedule each Five Corners home with enough time to do the whole system properly and document it. Call (737) 727-2314 and we will book the next available window.
