Duct Sealing Services in Raleigh & Durham, NC
Along with your electrical and plumbing services, your ductwork operates behind the scenes, acting as the circulatory system for your HVAC.
Supply and return vents deliver and return conditioned air continuously throughout each room in your home — but the quality and quantity of air you receive can easily become compromised due to leaky ductwork.
For reliable, quality duct sealing services in the Raleigh–Durham area, call Air Experts to schedule an appointment.Â
5 Consequences of Leaky Ductwork
In a typical home, between 20% and 30% of conditioned air is lost to holes, cracks, or areas of disconnect in the ductwork. The solution? Professional duct sealing services, which can help you avoid:
- Decreased efficiency: Under optimal conditions, your HVAC system will operate at peak performance. However, when conditioned or heated air escapes, the system must work even harder to reach the desired temperature, decreasing its overall efficiency.
- Compromised air quality: Contaminated air from unconditioned spaces, such as your crawl space or attic, may be drawn into your duct system through areas of leakage, introducing mold spores, dust, insulation particles, and more.
- Uneven heating: Are some rooms in your home warmer or colder than others? Leaky ductwork may be to blame, as conditioned air escapes before reaching its final destination.
- Increased energy costs: As your HVAC system is forced to work harder to replace air lost through leaky ducts, the amount of money it costs to heat or cool your home will rise.
- Shortened equipment lifespan: System components may become dirty or prematurely worn due to overuse in an attempt to reach the desired thermostat setting.
