Duct Sealing Can Help With:

Leaky ducts are common and can diminish the efficiency of your HVAC system by as much as 40%. Homeowners pay for the air that is heated or cooled, and letting it leak into an attic, basement, or crawl space through a cracked or broken supply duct is wasteful. It’s also not healthy to breathe crawl space or attic air that escapes from a leaky duct. Fortunately, these problems can easily be corrected by sealing your ductwork system.

Uninsulated or poorly insulated ducts waste a tremendous amount of energy. Just think about what happens in the winter, when your HVAC system is blowing heated air through uninsulated ducts located in a frigid attic! Before your HVAC system can heat your living space, it must first heat up the attic ductwork. In the summer, you're blowing chilled air through the same uninsulated ductwork, that's been heated to about 120 degrees.

Imbalanced ductwork wastes energy while also creating areas in your house that are too hot or too cold. Balance problems occur when the amount of air delivered through supply ducts doesn't match the amount of air drawn in through your return ducts. This typically occurs because of improper location and size of supply and return ducts.

Safety Pressure imbalances caused by air duct leakage can lead to back drafting in combustion appliances such as furnaces, wood stoves, and gas ranges. When this happens, you risk exposure to carbon monoxide.

Your duct system has an important job: distributing air that has been "conditioned" (heated or cooled) by your HVAC system throughout the house so that your living space is at the right temperature. Supply Ducts transport conditioned air from your furnace or air handler to different rooms or hallways. A separate system of Return Ductwork brings air back to the furnace or air handler to be reconditioned.

When your duct system is leaking it can have adverse effects on your comfort, health and utility costs.
