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.

Call (830) 549-6847 for a free estimate with no obligation.
Why Cibolo Residents Choose Us for Trane Service
We know the Trane equipment in Cibolo homes because we’ve cleaned thousands of them. The XR13 and XR14 condensers paired with TEM and TAM air handlers show up in nearly every DR Horton and Lennar build from the 2010s, and we’ve documented the same pattern repeatedly: blower wheels caked with construction debris, return boots packed with drywall mud, flex-duct gaps at the collar leaking caliche dust into attics that hit 140 degrees in July.
Tomas Reyes, our owner, learned to read ductwork at BOCES Westchester - the vocational program in the Bronx where he trained before spending over a decade crawling through attics across this region. He still shows customers the inspection photo before quoting a single dollar. “Show the photo first. Explain what you’re looking at. Then talk about what happens next.” That’s how we operate on every Cibolo job.
Our crews carry OEM Trane parts for critical components and quality aftermarket equivalents for filters, mastic sealants, and flex-duct connectors. Every technician is background-checked and uniformed under Haven Standard Clause 3: Verified Crews. We publish our license number on every page, not buried in a footer.
Common Trane Air Duct Cleaning Problems We Solve in Cibolo
- Return-air plenum clogged with construction debris. In Cibolo’s 8-14-year-old homes - especially in subdivisions like Buffalo Crossing off FM 78 - we regularly find first-floor return boots still packed with drywall mud overspray and sheetrock grit from original construction. This debris starves the Trane blower of airflow, forcing PSC motors to overheat and trip on high-limit. The camera shows it; we extract it.
- Flex-duct gaps leaking caliche dust. Boom-era builds compressed connection timelines, and flex-duct collars at boots were often sealed hastily. Cibolo’s caliche-heavy soil, constantly disturbed by adjacent new construction, sends fine alkaline dust through these gaps. It coats the Trane evaporator coil and drops system capacity right when the April-October cooling marathon demands full output.
- Blower wheel and evaporator coil fouling. Blown-in insulation fragments and drywall dust accumulate on the Trane blower wheel and evaporator coil in large-footprint tract homes. The result is musty odors, uneven cooling, and rooms that never reach setpoint despite the system running continuously. Our Rotobrush and Nikro equipment removes this buildup without damaging delicate coil fins.
- High static pressure from restricted returns. When construction debris narrows the effective diameter of return ductwork, the Trane air handler works against elevated static pressure. Variable-speed blowers in the XL16i and XL20i compensate temporarily, but the strain shows up in premature motor failure. Cleaning the full return path - not just the register - is the fix.
- Construction debris feeding microbial growth. Cibolo’s humid Gulf-influenced air, cycled through ductwork six months straight without rest, combines with trapped organic construction debris to create conditions for growth on the coil and in the plenum. We document this with before photos and address it with mechanical cleaning, not chemical fogging that masks the problem.
BeforeAfterTrane Service in Cibolo: What Local Conditions Mean for Your Equipment
Cibolo’s rapid resale cycle is the single most important local factor shaping what we find in Trane systems here. Homes change hands every 3-5 years in this market, and sellers rarely disclose that the original construction debris - drywall mud, insulation fragments, sheetrock grit - was never cleaned from the return boots. Buyers inherit a “new enough” house with a decade of trapped dust feeding their Trane XR14 or XL16i system. The certificate-of-occupancy inspection checks that the HVAC runs; it does not check that the ductwork was cleaned after construction crews left. We’ve cleaned 2015-built homes in Cibolo where the first-floor return boot contained identifiable drywall mud overspray from the original build, compressed into a 2-inch mat that reduced effective airflow by roughly 30 percent. The homeowner had lived there three years and never knew. This pattern is far less common in established neighbors like Schertz or Converse, where housing stock predates the 2005 boom and has typically seen at least one professional cleaning cycle.
Trane Models & Products We Service in Cibolo
We clean and service the Trane equipment installed in Cibolo’s production-built homes as part of our Trane services: the XR series (XR13, XR14, XR16), XB series (XB13, XB14), and XL series (XL16i, XL18i, XL20i) condensers, plus variable-speed air handlers in the TEM, TAM, and GAM lines. These units were spec’d by builders for price point and efficiency rating, not for ease of maintenance - the compact cabinet designs and tight attic clearances common in Cibolo tract homes make thorough cleaning a trade skill, not a DIY project.
We stock OEM Trane filters and blower components for same-day resolution when a cleaning reveals a worn part. For mastic sealants, flex-duct connectors, and register boots, we use aftermarket equivalents from Honeywell, Aprilaire, and Guardsman that meet or exceed builder-grade specifications. Our equipment roster - Rotobrush, Nikro, Abatement Technologies - is published here so you can verify what enters your home before agreeing to a price.
We are an independent Trane service provider. We are not Trane-authorized, -certified, or -affiliated. Our expertise comes from documented hours on this equipment in this market, not from a dealer program.
Trane Service Pricing in Cibolo
Whole-system Trane air duct cleaning in Cibolo runs $380-$620 for a typical 2,200-square-foot home with 8-12 registers, depending on accessibility and what the inspection camera finds. Here’s how that breaks down:
| Service Component | Price Range |
|---|---|
| Full system cleaning (supply + return ducts, registers, plenum) | $380-$480 |
| Add evaporator coil cleaning (Trane TEM/TAM/GAM air handlers) | $120-$180 |
| Add blower wheel removal and cleaning | $90-$140 |
| Duct repair and sealing with mastic (per linear foot of accessible flex duct) | $8-$15 |
| Written estimate and inspection with photo documentation | Free |
What drives cost: attic accessibility, number of duct runs, and whether the inspection reveals construction debris requiring extended extraction time. We do not price per vent. One flat price per system, agreed in writing before work starts - Haven Standard Clause 1. No $79 coupon that becomes a $900 invoice once the truck is in your driveway. Call (830) 549-6847 for an exact quote; estimates are free and include the full photo inspection.

FAQs - Trane Air Duct Cleaning in Cibolo
Yes. The debris we find in Cibolo’s 2015-built homes is typically construction residue - drywall mud, insulation fragments, sheetrock grit - not household dust. You won’t see it at the register because it’s trapped in the return boot and plenum, restricting airflow and forcing your XR14’s blower to work harder. Our inspection camera shows what’s there before you commit to anything. Call (830) 549-6847 for a free look.
Restricted return airflow from debris buildup or flex-duct gaps is the most common cause we see in Cibolo. When the return path is partially blocked, the Trane blower cannot move design airflow across the evaporator coil. The system runs longer, rooms at the end of duct runs stay warm, and the compressor cycles on high pressure. Cleaning the full return path and sealing gaps with mastic typically resolves this. Call (830) 549-6847 and we’ll show you the restriction on camera.
No. Routine maintenance including duct cleaning does not void Trane’s equipment warranty. However, damage caused by improper cleaning technique - crushed flex duct, stripped coil fins, disconnected drain lines - is not covered. We document our work with before-and-after photos of every duct run so there’s a record of what was done and how. Our 365-Day Done Right Promise backs the workmanship separately.
For Cibolo homes in active construction zones, we recommend Cibolo Dryer Vent Cleaning inspection every 3-4 years and cleaning when the camera shows debris accumulation exceeding 1/4 inch. The caliche dust from adjacent grading and excavation enters return systems faster here than in built-out areas. Homes within 500 yards of active construction may need more frequent attention. Call (830) 549-6847 to schedule an inspection and we’ll give you a specific interval based on what we find.
Yes. We clean and service Trane variable-speed air handlers in the TEM, TAM, and GAM series installed throughout Cibolo. Blower wheel cleaning requires cabinet disassembly - we remove the wheel, clean it with compressed air and soft brushes, and reinstall with torque to specification. The variable-speed motors in XL-series systems are particularly sensitive to imbalance from debris buildup; cleaning the wheel restores smooth operation and reduces noise. Call (830) 549-6847 to schedule.
