The Applied Science of Airflow Management
Do your utility bills seem to be getting higher as the performance of your climate control system seems to be getting lower? The fault may not be a failing furnace, A/C or air handler, it may actually be your ducting. Over time, small holes and tears may develop in the flex or old rigid metal ducting seams, which can cause air leaks. This hot or cold air loss is not something you would even be aware of unless you start comparing your utility bills or begin noticing that your cooling and heating is not quite what it used to be. If you think this may be happening in your home, call the duct sealing specialists at Around the Clock Heating and Air Conditioning.

One of the main problems that damaged ductwork presents to any homeowner is that it can be difficult to detect. The majority of your ductwork is in fact hidden behind your walls, beneath your floors or in attic crawl spaces. There is no real way to visually inspect the entire air transport network to determine if there are indeed tears, corrosion or other problems with the system. There are, however, a few indicators that can alert you to the possibility of damaged air ducts:
Leaky duct connection
Return leaks
Furniture blocking register
Furnace & filter slot and duct tape faliure
Fallen duct insulation
Supply leaks
Kinks in ductwork restricting airflow
If you notice more airborne pollutants in your home and your indoor air quality feels like it is declining, improperly sealed air ducts may be the reason. Contaminants can work their way into improperly sealed ductwork. This can negatively impact your home’s indoor air quality and lead to respiratory issues or trigger allergies.

The air management professionals at Around the Clock Heating and Air Conditioning not only have the skill set to repair and seal any compromised ducting, but will also be able to pressure test the system after the repairs are completed to make sure that your system is performing correctly.
