What that means for ducts
New-build ductwork
Roughly 32% of Pflugerville'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 Pflugerville
The part that changes from street to street.
Pflugerville sits east of the Balcones fault, which puts it on blackland prairie rather than the limestone shelf west of I-35, and that geology reaches your ductwork. Expansive black clay swells and shrinks with every wet and dry season, and slabs move with it. What works loose over time are the connections where boots meet floors and ceilings, and a separated boot quietly pulls attic air, insulation fibers and all, straight into your conditioned supply. That is an air-quality problem sealing solves and cleaning does not. The rest of the picture is timing: most of Pflugerville went up in the 2000s and 2010s, so the typical system here is fifteen to twenty-five years old on its original flex, right at the age where a first honest inspection earns its keep. Gas service is split roughly down the middle across the city, so we confirm what you have before quoting anything.

03Duct Sanitizing & Antimicrobial Treatment — in this stock
Treatment in new stock — usually the wrong purchase.
In a house built since 2010 there is rarely a documented indication for an antimicrobial or a UV lamp, and we will normally say so. Where a UV light does earn its place here it is a coil-hygiene decision on a system that runs long humid cycles, not an air-purity claim. If someone has quoted you a treatment on a five-year-old system without showing you a reason on camera, ask what the reason was.
Is the antimicrobial treatment safe for my family and pets?
We only use products EPA-registered specifically for use in HVAC systems, applied exactly as the label directs — including any re-entry and ventilation instructions, which we walk you through before we start. You also get the product name and label documentation for your records.
Why won't you sanitize without cleaning first?
Because fogging product over a layer of dust treats the dust, not the duct surface — the buildup simply shields what's underneath. It wastes your money and violates the spirit of the label.

05Questions
Asked in Pflugerville, answered straight.
Is the antimicrobial treatment safe for my family and pets?
We only use products EPA-registered specifically for use in HVAC systems, applied exactly as the label directs — including any re-entry and ventilation instructions, which we walk you through before we start. You also get the product name and label documentation for your records. No off-label products, no improvised mixes, ever.
Why won't you sanitize without cleaning first?
Because fogging product over a layer of dust treats the dust, not the duct surface — the buildup simply shields what's underneath. It wastes your money and violates the spirit of the label. Source removal first, then treatment where there's a documented indication. Any company that offers it the other way around is selling theater.
Does the black clay soil east of I-35 really matter for ductwork?
More than people expect. Pflugerville slabs sit on expansive blackland prairie clay that swells and shrinks seasonally, and that movement loosens boot connections at floors and ceilings. Those gaps pull attic air straight into conditioned supply. Sealing them beats cleaning almost every time, and it holds.
Our house went up around 2007. Is it due for anything?
It is a fair time for a first inspection. Much of Pflugerville was built in that decade, so these systems are roughly twenty years in on original flex. We look for sag, torn liner and coil buildup, and we will say plainly when nothing we found warrants a cleaning.
Half our street has gas and half does not. Why, and does it change the work?
Gas coverage here is genuinely split, sometimes by subdivision phase. It changes the visit: a furnace adds a combustion cabinet and flue connection to check, while an all-electric system puts the focus on the coil and the strip heaters. We confirm which you have before putting a number on anything.
