The ductwork attached to HVAC systems is one of those things that homeowners often don’t pay much attention to. After all, they’re out of sight, and therefore out of mind too, until they start to make your energy bills skyrocket.
When it comes to properly caring for your air duct system, it’s important to know what that means. Your air ducts are designed to bring the air that’s cooled or heated from the HVAC system into the rooms of your living space efficiently and effectively without that conditioned air being lost to the outside.
When your air ducts leak, however, it can account for a loss of about 30% of your conditioned air–conditioned air that you are paying for. Fortunately, all you have to do if you are having ductwork issues, all you need to do is call our team! One of the many methods we use to ensure the proper functionality of ductwork is air duct sealing.
Have you ever invested in duct testing before? Did you know duct testing was actually a necessary service? Duct testing helps our technicians discover where and how you might be having inefficiencies and indoor air quality problems in your home. For instance, we might find that you have a tear or loose joints that are leaking conditioned air into unoccupied spaces. This not only leads to inefficient HVAC performance, but can introduce allergens and contaminants into your living space.
