Ductwork

Ductwork is often overlooked when it comes to homes. You can’t see the ductwork in the walls and attic of a house, but they’re critical for overall home performance and for the efficiency and effectiveness of heating and cooling systems. Duct will need occasinal service, such as duct sealing, to ensure they don’t have air leaks that can lead to high energy bills and even lower indoor air quality. 

Air Duct Installation and Service

You may need to have improvements made to your duct system with ductwork replacement. Unfortunately, many initial ductwork installations are done poorly, creating an inefficient ventilation system that’s prone to leaks and other problems. We can correct problematic ducts with duct replacement. We also offer high quality new duct installations for homes that ensure the HVAC system gets off to a great start from the beginning.

Duct Sealing and Testing: The Key to an Efficient HVAC System

Ductwork undergoes strain like any part of the HVAC system, but people often don’t notice because most of the ducts are hidden in walls or in places like the attic. Ducts can develop leaks from a range of causes:

  • Corrosion due to humidity
  • Strain from poor initial installation
  • Insects and vermin
  • Construction work
  • Damage from objects in the attic

When ducts have leaks, it can mean losing up to 30% of the air moving through the ventilation system. That’s air you’ve already paid to heat and cool going to waste because it isn’t reaching the living spaces. Dust and other debris can also get into these leaks and then get blown into your home.

The first step in solving this problem is to arrange for duct testing with our team. The test will find where your ducts are losing air. Then we can use professional tools to seal the leaks and make your ducts airtight once more.

Leaky Ducts? Seal Them Up and Save on Energy Bills

Sealed ducts will benefit your HVAC system and your home in multiple ways:

  • Better Energy Efficiency: Without all that air getting sent to heat and cool places like the attic and between the walls, you’ll have lower utility bills.
  • Longer HVAC Service Life: Lost air means your HVAC system must do more work to make up for it. This will wear the heating and cooling systems down earlier and shorten their service lives.
  • Healthier Indoor Air Quality: You don’t want dust, dirt, mold spores, and other unwanted contaminants getting into your home’s air by sneaking through gaps in the ducts.
  • Better Humidity Control: Leaky air ducts are one of the ways a home can become more humid than it should be.

Improve Indoor Air Quality and Comfort With Duct Sealing

You might think you can make all these improvements yourself with duct tape. But not only is duct tape actually ineffective on ducts—yes, the name is deceptive—you won’t be able to locate the leaks or easily access them on your own. This job requires the best professionals with the most advanced tools.

The good news is that you’ve found the people for the job in Surf City, NC: Gideon Heating & Air Conditioning. Reach out to us today to schedule duct testing and get started with better comfort, cleaner air, and lower bills.
