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.

AfterLennox Air Duct Cleaning in New Braunfels, TX | CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning New Braunfels
Lennox air duct cleaning in New Braunfels typically runs $380-$620 for a complete system, with evaporator coil and blower cleaning adding $180-$290. What makes our Lennox work here different is how we account for the Ashe juniper pollen that mats blower wheels every cedar season and the river-corridor humidity that grows mold in supply boots year-round - conditions that don’t show up the same way even thirty minutes up I-35.
We are Lennox sales & service technicians who work on these systems daily in New Braunfels, from Merit series furnaces still running in original downtown homes to Dave Lennox Signature Collection variable-speed systems in newer subdivisions. We are not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by Lennox. We are an independent local company that carries the diagnostic tools and OEM-compatible components these units need, and we quote every job in writing before a single panel comes off.

Why New Braunfels Residents Choose Us for Lennox Service
Tomas Reyes, our owner, learned the trade at BOCES Westchester and has spent well over a decade doing Air Duct Cleaning - New Braunfels work across the area. He still crawls attics in older homes near the Gruene Historic District where flex duct from the late eighties collects surprising debris loads before anyone notices airflow dropping. His approach is straightforward: show the photo first, explain what you’re looking at, then talk about what happens next. Every crew works under the same standard.
We carry Lennox OEM control boards, igniters, inducers, and communicating modules for system-critical repairs, plus high-quality aftermarket equivalents for filter racks, flex duct, mastic, and standard fittings where the spec matches. Our equipment roster includes Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies, Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman - brands you can look up yourself before we quote a dollar. Every job ends with a Documented Photo Record of every duct run, delivered as a standard deliverable, not an upsell. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is written on every invoice, not just stated in a brochure.
Haven Standard Clause 1 means the price you see before work starts is the price you pay. No per-vent arithmetic, no coupon that triples once the truck arrives. Tomas started this practice in 2013 and has held to it through 52,000-plus homes.
Common Lennox Air Duct Cleaning Problems We Solve in New Braunfels
- Cedar pollen matting blower wheels and evaporator coils. Lennox variable-speed and communicating air handlers are sensitive to fine Ashe juniper pollen that infiltrates during December-February. We regularly pull panels on SL280V and EL296V systems to find blower wheels coated with grey fuzz that bypassed the filter and settled in the cabinet. In New Braunfels, this is nearly annual maintenance, not a once-a-decade event.
- River-corridor mold in supply boots and plenums. The Comal and Guadalupe rivers generate localized humidity that factory drain pans and float switches sometimes cannot keep pace with. We find mold colonies on Lennox evaporator coils and inside insulated plenums in homes within blocks of Landa Park, even in construction from 2018 or later. The pattern doesn’t replicate in comparable homes toward Canyon Lake.
- Construction debris packing supply runs in tract homes. Subdivisions like Veramendi and Forest Ridge - slab-on-grade builds from the 2010s and 2020s - frequently contain drywall dust and fiberglass debris that packed into Lennox supply runs and return chases before the first cleaning cycle ever happened. The ML180 and 13ACX units in these homes strain against blocked airflow from day one.
- Undersized ductwork starving older systems. Pre-1970s homes near historic downtown and the riverfronts often run original ductwork that is uninsulated and undersized for the Lennox Elite or Merit replacement furnace that got installed later. Return air restriction forces blowers and heat exchangers to run hotter, shortening equipment life and raising utility bills.
- Separated flex runs leaking conditioned air. Attic chases in New Braunfels’ rapid-growth housing stock - both older retrofits and newer builds - develop separated flex duct at elbows and plenum connections. The iComfort communicating systems flag this as erratic static pressure, but standard thermostats just show a house that won’t hold setpoint during 100°F afternoons.
BeforeAfterLennox Service in New Braunfels: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
New Braunfels sits at the Balcones Escarpment transition, where humid Gulf air meets the drier Hill Country. This geographic position means Lennox systems here cycle against both 100°F-plus summers with Gulf humidity and the December-February Ashe juniper pollen dump that Schertz and Seguin simply do not experience at the same intensity. The result is a mixed load inside ductwork that other markets don’t see: fine cedar pollen plus damp organic debris.
In river-corridor homes near Landa Park and the Comal River springs, we find this combination has created mold colonies in supply boots and flex duct even in relatively new construction. The AC runs almost year-round against river-generated moisture, so the interior of the duct never fully dries. A Lennox XC16 or XP series heat pump in these homes is working against biology, not just temperature. Duct cleaning here is not cosmetic. It is maintenance that affects whether the system reaches its rated lifespan.
Our crew was called to a 2018-built home in the Veramendi subdivision where the owners’ Lennox iComfort system was short-cycling and pushing a musty odor from the supply vents. We pulled the air handler panel, found the evaporator coil and blower wheel coated with a grey mat of cedar pollen and construction drywall dust, and traced a separated flex run in the attic chase leaking conditioned air. After full system cleaning, coil treatment, blower cleaning, and mastic sealing the joints, supply static pressure dropped and the system held setpoint through the next week of triple-digit heat.
Lennox Models & Products We Service in New Braunfels
We work on the full Lennox residential line, including Dave Lennox Signature Collection furnaces like the SL280V, SLP98V, and EL296V, paired with XC and XP series air conditioners and heat pumps. The Elite Series EL180 and EL195 furnaces with XC13 and XC16 cooling are common in New Braunfels homes built during the 2010s growth wave. Merit Series ML180 and ML193 furnaces, plus 13ACX and 14ACX air conditioners, appear frequently in original equipment and budget replacements.
For iComfort-enabled communicating systems with variable-speed air handlers, we carry the diagnostic interfaces and OEM communicating modules needed for proper troubleshooting. We stock Lennox OEM components locally for faster turnaround on system-critical repairs, and we source high-quality aftermarket equivalents for standard fittings where the specification matches. We will repair older Merit and Elite units when the heat exchanger, blower, and coil are sound. On a failed 15-plus-year-old Lennox with multiple issues, we will tell you plainly that replacement pencils out better than a rebuild.

FAQs - Lennox Air Duct Cleaning in New Braunfels
The fine Ashe juniper pollen that infiltrates during December-February carries organic material that settles in damp duct interiors, especially in river-corridor homes where the AC runs year-round against humidity. When pollen mats the evaporator coil or blower wheel and mixes with condensate, it produces the musty odor you are smelling. We clean the coil, blower, and duct runs - including our Dryer Vent Cleaning in New Braunfels when needed - then document the before and after with photos. Call (830) 549-6847 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Most likely both. Forest Ridge homes from that era frequently have construction debris still packed in supply runs, which starves the ML180 or 13ACX for airflow. We inspect with a camera to distinguish duct blockage from blower wheel buildup or a failing capacitor. The written estimate separates duct cleaning from equipment repair so you see exactly what each costs. Call (830) 549-6847 for an exact quote - estimates are free.
Yes. The persistent moisture from the Comal River springs keeps duct interiors damp enough for mold growth even in newer construction. We find mold in supply boots and flex duct in these homes on a routine basis, while comparable homes inland toward Canyon Lake show significantly less biological loading. Annual inspection is prudent here; cleaning frequency depends on what the camera shows.
Sometimes. On many EL296V and SLP98V systems, we can access the coil through the front panel for foaming and rinsing. If the coil is heavily matted with pollen or mold has penetrated the fins, we recommend full removal for proper cleaning. We show you the inspection photo and explain which approach applies to your specific unit before quoting either option.
Yes. Separated flex runs and leaky plenum joints in attic chases lose 15-30 percent of conditioned air before it reaches the registers. In 100°F heat, that means your SL280V or XC16 runs longer, cycles harder, and still cannot hold setpoint. Mastic sealing the joints restores static pressure and reduces run time. We measure pressure before and after so you see the difference in numbers, not just promises.
