Camera Duct Inspection & Air-Quality Assessment in Schertz, TX
A borescope camera goes into your supply and return runs and shows you exactly what's there: dust load, debris, moisture staining, suspect growth, crushed or disconnected runs leaking attic air into the system. We weigh what we see against EPA's published guidance — visible mold, vermin, or significant buildup — and give you a straight recommendation: clean now, clean these runs only, or don't clean at all. Either way you leave with photos, a written condition report, and a baseline to compare against in a few years. It's the honest starting point for every other service we offer. Serving Schertz (3 ZIP codes, 42k residents) and surrounding neighborhoods with same-week scheduling.
Camera Duct Inspection & Air-Quality Assessment in Schertz
A duct inspection puts a camera where opinions usually go. We scope the supply and return runs, both plenums, and the filter arrangement, photographing dust depth, moisture staining, suspect microbial growth, crushed or torn flex duct, and connections that have pulled loose and are drawing attic air into the system. Findings are weighed against EPA's published guidance — cleaning earns a recommendation only when there's visible mold, vermin, or significant buildup. You get the photo set, a written condition report, and one of three honest verdicts: clean now, clean specific runs, or leave it alone and re-check in a couple of years.
Local dossier · Schertz, TX
Schertz is unusual in two ways that matter for ductwork. Almost every home is detached single-family, with very little attached or stacked housing anywhere in the city, and almost every one of them heats with electricity rather than gas. That means no flue, no heat exchanger, and one cabinet doing all the work: blower, evaporator coil, filter rack and strip heaters in a single box that is where nearly every real air-quality issue in this city begins. It also explains the burning smell people report on the first cold morning, which is dust scorching on the heat strips rather than a failure. The other local factor is turnover. With Randolph and the wider joint base next door, houses here change hands and tenants often, and a system inherits whatever the last household did to it. We find that history in the cabinet before quoting anything.

Camera Duct Inspection & Air-Quality Assessment in Schertz — FAQ
Is the $99 inspection just a setup for selling me a cleaning?
No — it's priced to stand on its own, and a meaningful share of inspections end with 'not yet.' You get photos, a written report, and a verdict measured against EPA's conditions. Plenty of customers use it to evaluate another company's quote, which we consider a perfectly good outcome.
What does the camera actually show?
Dust depth, debris, moisture staining, growth-suspect areas, torn liner, and crushed or disconnected runs — through every accessible supply and return plus both plenums. You watch the screen live as we go, so by the time the report arrives, you've already seen everything in it yourself.
We're a military family renting near Randolph. What can we reasonably ask for?
A fair question and a common one here. Ask the owner for the filter size and a change schedule in writing, and report sweating vents or a whistling return promptly. Documented airflow complaints get repairs approved far more often than a general request for duct cleaning ever does.
First cold morning of the year, the house smells like burning. Is that dangerous?
Usually it is dust on electric heat strips, which nearly every Schertz home has instead of a gas furnace, and it burns off within minutes. If the smell lasts, repeats on later runs, or comes with tripping breakers, stop using heat and have the air handler inspected before anything else.
There's no furnace in our attic, just one cabinet. What actually gets inspected?
In an all-electric Schertz home that cabinet is the air handler: blower, evaporator coil, heat strips and filter rack in one box. It is also where nearly every genuine air-quality problem starts. We open it, photograph the coil and check the condensate drain before discussing the duct at all.
