Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in Somerset, TX
Kestrel Air Duct Cleaning serves Somerset, TX with air duct and dryer vent cleaning backed by a written price before work begins and the 365-Day Done Right Promise in writing. Somerset homes pull in far more caliche dust and ranch-country pollen than houses in San Antonio proper, and that changes how a duct system wears. Most Somerset jobs run between $450 and $900, with the exact figure set before we touch a vent. Call (469) 972-3151 for a free estimate.
Why Somerset Homes Are Different
Somerset sits at the southern edge of San Antonio’s sprawl, bordered by working ranchland and caliche-soil county roads that kick up fine white particulate dust. Homeowners here see return-air plenums caked with a chalky, pale buildup that you simply don’t find in established San Antonio suburbs 15 to 20 miles north. That dust comes from gravel driveways, unpaved Bexar and Atascosa county roads, and dry ranch acreage, not from inside the house. The HVAC system pulls it in continuously once the cooling season starts.
The housing stock in Somerset is a mix of manufactured and mobile homes on rural lots and mid-2000s to 2010s tract homes built as growth pushed south down US-281 and SH-16. Both types commonly use flexible ductwork that sags at low points and traps debris, which a rigid sheet-metal system in older in-town construction would not do. Many acreage properties still run original duct systems that have never been serviced. Combined with an HVAC season that runs nearly continuously from late April through October, that means Somerset systems accumulate years’ worth of contamination in a compressed cycle. December through February, Ashe juniper pollen from the mountain cedar corridor finds its way into the same return-air paths, adding a seasonal allergen load on top of the dust.
Our Main Somerset Services
Somerset homeowners call us about two things, and each has its own page with local detail, pricing, and what to expect.
Air Duct Cleaning in Somerset
Our Air Duct Cleaning in Somerset service uses Rotobrush rotary brush systems to dislodge caliche dust and debris at the duct wall while Nikro negative-pressure units pull the loosened contaminants out of the system. That matters here because Somerset dust is fine enough to pack into flex-duct sag points and return-air plenums in a single cooling season. The job includes cleaning supply and return ducts, the blower compartment, and the return-air plenum where we most often find the white caliche buildup along Bexar and Atascosa county road properties.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Somerset
Our Dryer Vent Cleaning in Somerset removes the lint that builds up inside the vent run behind your dryer. Rural Somerset homes often have longer vent runs than in-town houses, and longer runs mean more surface area for lint to collect. Combined with the fine dust already in the air, those vent runs clog faster than homeowners expect. We clean the full run from the dryer connection to the exterior cap, check airflow, and leave the vent pulling properly.

Somerset pricing is pushed up by the caliche dust: systems here often need a deeper return-air plenum cleaning and a longer brush pass than city homes, especially on acreage properties near unpaved county roads. Every job is quoted as one written price for the whole system before we start, so the number we give you is the number on the invoice.

FAQs About Air Duct Cleaning Company in Somerset
We serve the entire Somerset area, including rural lots, acreage properties, and subdivisions from the city center to the Bexar-Atascosa county line and out along US-281 and SH-16. Your written quote covers the whole system regardless of which part of Somerset you’re in.
Some will, because Somerset’s dust source is outside your home and continuous. But a properly cleaned system, with your return-air plenum cleared and your filters changed, can handle normal dust for one to three years before it needs attention again. On heavily dusty acreage lots, we may recommend filtering changes at shorter intervals.
No. Duct and dryer vent cleaning is internal maintenance, and no city of Somerset permit is required for this type of service. If you live in a subdivision with an HOA, there’s no approval needed for indoor work, but it’s fine to check your covenants if you’re not sure. Call (469) 972-3151 if you have a specific question about your property.

What Somerset Customers Say
"Set up an appointment for the whole house plus the dryer line. They called the morning of to confirm, showed up in the window, and showed me pictures of the gunk they pulled out. Worth it."
- Terrence Boyd"My wife's allergies were awful every morning. Had the ducts done and it's made a real difference. Tech was on time and wore booties in the house without me asking."
- Rob Pendergast"Bought an older home and the previous owners had pets everywhere. After Kestrel did the ducts the stale smell was just gone. On time, quick, and they showed me the filter they pulled."
