Do You Notice Little Or No Air Flowing From Your Registers?
Your HVAC system is using energy to push conditioned air through your ductwork and into your living spaces. When your duct system contains leaks, this conditioned air is actually pushed into your attic, crawlspace, or basement.
Sealing your ductwork will allow your system to properly heat and cool your home by keeping conditioned air where you want it.
Does Your HVAC System Run Constantly? Do You Notice Higher Than Expected Utility Bills?
Repairing and patching leaks in HVAC duct systems saves cooling, heating, and fan energy. In air-based systems, ducts deliver all of the heating and cooling to conditioned spaces. Any duct leakage translates into extra air that must be supplied, so sufficient heating or cooling reaches the conditioned space. This not only increases effective heating and cooling loads, but it also increases fan energy due to increased flow and/or run time.
