What that means for ducts
New-build ductwork
Roughly 39% of New Braunfels's homes were built since 2010. New does not mean clean: the commonest thing we pull out of a five-year-old system is the construction phase itself — drywall fines, sawdust, insulation fiber — plus builder-grade flex that was kinked or crushed on the day and has been throttling that run ever since. Photographs matter more here, not less.
That is a reading of the city’s stock, not a diagnosis of your home. Which of it applies to you is exactly what the camera settles — and why we would rather run one than quote from a postcode.
02Working in New Braunfels
The part that changes from street to street.
New Braunfels has grown quickly, with a large share of its homes going up since 2010, but it also keeps a meaningful stock of manufactured housing and a river-corridor geography that changes the work. Manufactured homes have no attic duct at all; the runs sit in a belly board beneath the floor inside a moisture barrier, and the first thing to establish is whether that wrap is torn and whether anything has moved in. That is a repair question before it is ever a cleaning question. Along the Comal and the Guadalupe, lots hold humidity longer, and cool supply surfaces sitting in damp crawl and slab-edge air will condense and stain. Heating here is nearly all electric. A vent pipe and a heat exchanger simply never enter the conversation. What does is the coil where moisture collects, and the strip heaters that scorch settled dust every first cold morning.

03Commercial & Multi-Unit Duct Cleaning — in this stock
Newer commercial stock.
Newer commercial systems are usually documented and accessible, which makes them cheaper to scope honestly — and makes it obvious when the load is build debris rather than years of use. Same written scope, same after-hours scheduling.
Can you work without disrupting our tenants or business hours?
That's the default, not a favor. Commercial work runs after hours or on weekends, zone by zone, under containment — tenants arrive to clean diffusers and a completion notice, not equipment in the hallway.
How do you price commercial duct cleaning?
Walkthrough and camera assessment first, then a written scope with one fixed per-building number. No per-vent arithmetic that mysteriously triples on site, no discovery surcharges.

05Questions
Asked in New Braunfels, answered straight.
Can you work without disrupting our tenants or business hours?
That's the default, not a favor. Commercial work runs after hours or on weekends, zone by zone, under containment — tenants arrive to clean diffusers and a completion notice, not equipment in the hallway. Scheduling is written into the scope, so operations and property management both know exactly what happens when.
How do you price commercial duct cleaning?
Walkthrough and camera assessment first, then a written scope with one fixed per-building number. No per-vent arithmetic that mysteriously triples on site, no discovery surcharges. If the assessment reveals something that changes the scope, you see the footage and approve the revision before anything proceeds. Documentation is included, not extra.
We live in a manufactured home outside town. Is duct cleaning the same process?
No, and it matters here because manufactured housing is a real part of the New Braunfels stock. Those ducts run in a belly board under the floor inside a moisture barrier. Torn belly wrap and rodent entry are the usual findings, and both are repairs that come before any cleaning is worth doing.
Our house is close to the Comal. Does river humidity reach the ductwork?
It can. River-corridor lots hold humidity longer, and crawl or slab-edge moisture migrates toward cool supply surfaces. We check for condensation staining at boots and register edges. When we find it, the durable fix is insulation and sealing at that boot rather than a cleaning you would repeat every year.
Nearly everything here is electric heat. What does that change?
It takes combustion out of the picture. Without a burner there is nothing to vent and nothing to crack, which removes two standard inspection items. Attention moves to the indoor coil where moisture condenses, and to the strip heaters that scorch settled dust on the first cold morning. That burning smell people report is almost always dust, not equipment failure.
