What air vent cleaning actually involves in Houston homes
Waiting has a cost here. A torn flex duct collar in a hot attic pulls unconditioned, humid air straight into the supply. That moisture lands on dust. Mold on returns near the air handler usually starts that way. Condensate dripping from uninsulated plenum seams does the same thing from the other direction. By the time a vent smells musty, the problem is rarely just the vent.
The work starts at the boot, not the register. We pull covers and look at what the duct is made of. Pre-1960 homes often show round galvanized sheet metal, or an octopus trunk-and-branch layout. Some 1950s ranches still have original under-slab ducts. Those collect water, sediment, and roots. Cleaning does not fix them. That is a replacement or abandonment conversation, and you deserve to hear it plainly.
1960s through the 80s brought rectangular trunks lined internally with fiberglass. Decades later that liner erodes and sheds. Aggressive brushing makes it worse. Flex duct from the 80s onward sags between supports and collects dust in the low spots. Attic storage crushes it. Foot traffic does too.
Most occupied Houston homes need this every two to four years. Sooner after flooding, remodeling, or a long outage with humidity sitting in a dormant system.
