HVAC Scent Diffusion in Bulverde
Whole-home fragrance through the supply plenum — and a straight answer about what it does and does not do.

What that means for ducts
Mixed-era stock
Bulverde splits across build eras — 0% pre-1980, 17% since 2010 — so two houses on the same street can need completely different work. It is the case where guessing from the curb is worst, and where a camera before a quote saves the most money.
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 Bulverde
The part that changes from street to street.
There is no standard Bulverde house. Acreage lots got built one at a time over a quarter century, so the duct layout changes from driveway to driveway and we arrive with no assumption about what is inside. What does repeat is the complaint. On a sprawling single-story plan with the equipment at one end, the rooms at the far end are chronically short of air, and someone has usually told the owner that the ducts must be blocked. Sometimes they are. More often the run to that wing was drawn off the floor plan rather than off a load calculation, and it is forty feet of undersized flex carrying three more elbows than the drawing showed, in which case no amount of cleaning changes the arithmetic. We take readings at the registers before quoting, because if the problem is air volume then a cleaning is the wrong purchase and you deserve to hear that beforehand rather than afterward. Almost nothing in this area has natural gas service, so the equipment is heat pumps and strip heat with an occasional propane furnace, and the surface that stays wet is the indoor coil.

04Questions
Asked in Bulverde, answered straight.
The back bedrooms barely get any air. Does that mean the ducts are blocked?
Not usually. We measure at those registers first, because a genuine blockage and an undersized run produce the same complaint and only one of them is fixed by cleaning. On long custom runs out here the finding is frequently duct that is too small or too convoluted for the distance. That needs a modification, and we will tell you so rather than sell you a service that cannot help.
We are on acreage and hear things in the attic. Should the ducts be checked?
Yes, and this is one of the clear cases where cleaning is genuinely indicated. Rodents open flex duct to nest in the insulation, and once they are inside the run the droppings and nesting material are in the airstream. We camera the runs, show you exactly what is there, and clean or replace the affected sections. Sealing their entry point first is what keeps it from repeating.
The house was custom built and nobody has records. What does an inspection give us?
A map you can keep. We document where the equipment is, how the trunk and branches actually run, what material they are, and what condition the plenums and coil are in, with photographs. In a city with no repeated floor plans that record has value on its own, and it is what makes any future quote you receive checkable rather than a matter of trust.
