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.
Rotobrush Duct Repair & Sealing in Fort Worth: What to Know First
CleanRun Air Duct Cleaning Fort Worth provides independent Rotobrush duct repair and sealing across Fort Worth, with most jobs completed in a single scheduled visit and a written price delivered before any panel comes off. We are not affiliated with or authorized by Rotobrush; we are an independent Rotobrush service provider that stocks OEM and quality aftermarket parts for the model lines we see most often in Tarrant County homes. If your Rotobrush system is showing pressure drops, register whistling, or uneven airflow between rooms, we’ll run a camera through every duct run, show you what we find, and put a flat price in writing before we agree on scope.
This page is for Rotobrush owners in Fort Worth neighborhoods like the Near Southside, Arlington Heights, and Ridglea who need actual ductwork repair, not a sales visit dressed up as an inspection. Call (817) 520-8797 for a free estimate.
How Rotobrush Products Fail - and How We Fix Them
- Beast series flexible duct collar separation. The Beast 8.5 and 8.5+ use a pressed collar connection at the main trunk that loosens after repeated vibration cycles, especially in Fort Worth homes where summer attic temperatures exceed 140°F and soften the adhesive bond. We remove the failed collar, reseat with mastic sealant and mechanical fasteners, and pressure-test to confirm no leakage at the joint.
- BrushBeast belt housing cracks causing negative-pressure loss. The BrushBeast line runs a stiffer brush head that transmits more torque to the housing; stress fractures appear near the belt tensioner mount. Hairline cracks don’t always throw a code but they bleed pressure, so your duct cleaning performance drops before you notice a noise. We replace the housing with OEM or equivalent-cast aftermarket units and verify seal integrity with a smoke pencil test.
- Rotobrush aiR+ flex duct adapter fatigue. The aiR+ series uses a lighter-weight adapter for residential flex duct connections; after 3-5 years of thermal cycling in North Texas, the plastic fatigues at the clamp point and creates a whistle you can hear two rooms away. We sleeve the damaged section with metal-backed flex, secure with permanent draw bands, and seal the seam with mastic rated for the temperature swing your attic sees from January to August.
- Negative air machine hose port wear on older Classic models. Pre-2018 Classic units have a molded hose port that wears oval from hose insertion cycles; once the port loses its round profile, you get bypass air that reduces extraction efficiency and lets debris settle in the plenum. We machine-fit a stainless insert or replace the port assembly, depending on wall thickness remaining, and document the repair in your photo record.
- Beast 8.5+ HEPA pod seal degradation. The upgraded HEPA pod on the 8.5+ relies on a silicone gasket that hardens faster in dry Fort Worth winters; when the seal goes, you’re recirculating rather than capturing fine particulate. We replace the gasket, verify pod vacuum integrity with a manometer reading, and note the baseline so you can compare at your next service.
Our Rotobrush Duct Repair & Sealing Process

- 1
Camera inspection and written scope. We run a borescope through every accessible duct run, photograph what we find, and build a written scope with line-item pricing before any work starts. Haven Standard Clause 1: no surprises.
- 2
Parts verification. We confirm whether your model needs OEM Rotobrush components or if a quality aftermarket equivalent meets the specification. For discontinued Classic parts, we maintain cross-references to Abatement Technologies and Nikro equivalents that we’ve validated in the field.
- 3
Repair execution under negative pressure. We isolate the work zone, execute the repair, and seal with mastic or mechanical fasteners appropriate to the material. Flex duct gets draw bands and sleeve reinforcement; metal duct gets sealer and screw reinforcement.
- 4
Post-repair pressure test. We pressurize the system and check every seam with a smoke pencil or thermal anemometer, depending on access. The reading goes in your job record.
- 5
Documented Photo Record delivery. Before-and-after images of every duct run, plus the pressure test result, delivered as a standard deliverable. Haven Standard Clause 5: Documented Accountability.
- 6
365-Day Done Right Promise activation. The written guarantee goes into your file. If the repair fails, we make it right. No manager approval required.

AfterWhat Rotobrush Duct Repair & Sealing Costs in Fort Worth
Most Rotobrush duct repair and sealing jobs in Fort Worth fall between $340 and $780 for a single system, depending on what the camera shows and how many duct runs need attention. A single flex duct collar reseat on a Beast series unit runs toward the lower end; multiple BrushBeast housing replacements with full trunk resealing run higher. Duct insulation replacement adds $180-$340 when attic heat degradation has compromised the wrap.
What moves the price: accessibility (crawl space vs. attic), material type (flex vs. metal vs. fiberboard), and whether we’re chasing a previous repair that used tape instead of mastic. Tape fails. We don’t use it.
Every price is flat per system, agreed in writing, with no per-vent add-ons. Call (817) 520-8797 for an exact quote; estimates are free.

FAQs
No, independent repair does not automatically void your Rotobrush warranty, though coverage for the specific failed part depends on age and original purchase terms. We document every part source and serial number so you can file a parallel claim if the component qualifies. Call (817) 520-8797 and we’ll walk you through what’s covered before we start.
If your unit powers on but airflow is weak or uneven, you likely need both: the repair fixes the mechanical failure, and the sealing closes the pressure leaks that made the failure noticeable. We separate the two in our written scope so you can see where every dollar goes. Call for a free estimate.
Yes, we stock cross-referenced equivalents from Abatement Technologies and Nikro for discontinued Classic components, and we validate fit before we quote. Some Classic housings require minor machining; we note that in the written scope with no extra charge. Call (817) 520-8797 to confirm availability for your serial number.
Most single-system repairs finish in 3-5 hours, including inspection, repair, pressure testing, and cleanup. Multi-zone BrushBeast jobs or attic flex replacement in older Fort Worth homes may run longer; we note the expected duration in the written scope before you approve it. Call for scheduling.
Every job concludes with a Documented Photo Record: before-and-after images of every duct run, plus pressure test readings, delivered as a standard deliverable. Haven Standard Clause 5. If you don’t receive it, the job isn’t closed. Call (817) 520-8797 to request your record or verify completion.
