Our Duct Repair Options
We offer a wide range of ductwork improvement services for your needs:
Duct Sealing: We perform airflow and leakage tests, seal air leaks and connections, and repair disconnected ducts to help improve the performance of your ductwork and heating and air conditioning system.
Duct Insulation: Adding insulation to your ducts in unconditioned spaces, like your attic or basement, can help improve your comfort and HVAC energy efficiency.
Duct Cleaning: If you have dust, dirt, or pet hair buildup inside your ducts, a thorough cleaning can remove debris and allergens to help improve your indoor air quality and HVAC system efficiency and reduce allergy and asthma symptoms.
Before performing work on ducts, we inspect the whole duct system, including the attic, basement, and crawl space, and evaluate supply and return air balance. After making duct improvements, we test for leakage and air flow and perform a combustion safety test.
Causes of your poor ductwork performance
Problems with your ductwork can make your energy costs higher and make it difficult to keep your whole home comfortable, no matter how much you adjust your thermostat.
- Leaky ducts: Oftentimes these temperature issues arise because the hot, or cold, the air is not reaching its intended destination. Duct leakage is letting the air escape before it has arrived in the correct room. This tends to force your HVAC system to stay on longer and longer to get the effected rooms to the right temperature.
- Under-insulated ducts: A lack of proper insulation often causes the ducts themselves to be too hot or cool. Thus, the HVAC system has to waste time heating or cooling the ducts before rooms can receive the correct temperature air. This leads to a higher heating/cooling bill and may even leave certain rooms still improperly heated/cooled.
- Ducts with unbalanced air flow: Sometimes the register location can also cause problems. Certain rooms might end up receiving too much air flow from your HVAC system while others might end up largely ignored.
