Ductwork
Ductwork often goes unnoticed in homes since it’s hidden behind walls and in attics, but it plays a vital role in the overall performance of your home. It’s essential for maintaining the efficiency and effectiveness of your heating and cooling systems. Like other HVAC components, ducts occasionally require maintenance, such as sealing, to prevent air leaks that can drive up energy costs and negatively affect indoor air quality.
Air Duct Installation and Service
Your duct system may need upgrades, including duct replacement, to perform efficiently. Many homes suffer from poorly installed ductwork, resulting in ventilation issues, air leaks, and other inefficiencies. We specialize in resolving these issues with professional duct replacement services. Additionally, we offer top-notch new duct installations to ensure your HVAC system operates optimally from the start.
Duct Sealing and Testing: Essential for an Efficient HVAC System
Just like any component of the HVAC system, ductwork endures significant strain, often unnoticed due to its concealed locations in walls or attics. Ducts may develop leaks for several reasons:
- Corrosion from humidity
- Stress from inadequate initial installation
- Pests and vermin
- Construction activities
- Damage from items stored in the attic
When ducts leak, it can result in a loss of up to 30% of the air circulating through the ventilation system. This is air you’ve already paid to heat or cool that is wasted as it fails to reach your living areas. Additionally, dust and debris can enter these leaks, circulating unwanted particles into your home.
The first step in addressing this issue is to schedule duct testing with our team. This assessment will pinpoint where your ducts are losing air. We can then utilize professional equipment to seal these leaks, restoring your ducts to an airtight condition.
Leaky Ducts? Seal Them and Reduce Energy Costs
Sealed ducts can enhance your HVAC system and home in several ways:
- Improved Energy Efficiency: With less air escaping to heat and cool areas like attics and walls, your utility costs will decrease.
- Extended HVAC Lifespan: Air loss forces your HVAC system to work harder, leading to premature wear and a reduced lifespan for heating and cooling components.
- Enhanced Indoor Air Quality: It’s essential to prevent dust, dirt, mold spores, and other undesirable pollutants from infiltrating your home’s air through duct gaps.
- Better Humidity Management: Leaky ducts can contribute to elevated humidity levels in your home.
Enhance Indoor Air Quality and Comfort Through Duct Sealing
You might believe that you can achieve these improvements with duct tape. However, duct tape is actually ineffective for sealing ducts—despite its name—and locating and accessing the leaks can be challenging on your own. This task requires skilled professionals equipped with advanced tools.
The great news is that you’ve found the right experts in Wilmington, NC: Gideon Heating & Air Conditioning. Contact us today to arrange duct testing and embark on a journey toward improved comfort, cleaner air, and reduced bills.
