A matching service for one trade in one city. It exists to get a McKinney homeowner to a duct and dryer vent cleaning contractor, and to say plainly when the cleaning is not worth buying.
McKinney Duct Pros does not own a vacuum truck and does not send anyone into an attic. A call or a form submitted here is passed to one independent contractor who cleans air ducts and dryer vents in McKinney under their own business name. That contractor looks at the system, writes the quote and does the job. The agreement is between the two of you.
What this site adds is the reading on either side of that call. Duct cleaning is heavily advertised, and much of what gets promised for it has never been shown. The pages here follow the EPA's guidance, which is to clean when there is a reason.
McKinney grew from 54,369 people at the 2000 census to 195,308 at the 2020 census. About 73% of its housing units were built in 2000 or later. A city that new has a duct question most older cities do not: thousands of systems that have never been opened, some with the construction still in them, and the first wave of them now reaching the age where the equipment gets replaced.
It also has the opposite. Roughly 2,700 housing units date from before 1960. The city's historic overlay district lies between US 75 and State Highway 5, around the old town, and many of its houses were standing before central air conditioning was a normal thing to own.
A page written for "McKinney" in general fits neither. So this site is organized by build year, and the build-year page is the center of it.
Texas regulates air conditioning contracting through the Department of Licensing and Regulation. Its rule carves out duct cleaning:
"Duct cleaning and air quality testing, including biomedical testing, may be performed by a person or entity that does not hold a contractor license" if "the task is limited to the air distribution system, from the supply plenum to the supply grilles of the unit and from the return air grill to the air handler intake of the unit," "no cuts are made to ducts or plenums," and "no changes are made to electrical connections."
Texas Administrative Code, Title 16, section 75.100(c)(1)
The same rule says what it calls biomedical remediation "requires a contractor license." In practice that puts the evaporator coil, the blower, any opening cut into a plenum and any disinfectant applied inside the system on the licensed side.
This site holds no air conditioning contractor license and displays none. Requests are matched with contractors who hold the state license wherever the job calls for one, and that contractor works under their own license number. NADCA membership, which some duct cleaners advertise, is a voluntary trade credential and not a state license.

If it suits you, call with the build year and what you have noticed.
