In the sections to follow, we will discuss our ducting replacement process and when duct replacement is necessary by answering a few FAQs about this helpful service.
How does ducting impact my HVAC system?
Because ducting is responsible for carrying fresh air which has been heated or cooled through your home, it can make or break your HVAC system. Ducts must be airtight and insulated properly, or else the comfortable air which should be flowing through your home can be lost. When this happens, the unit itself must work overtime to make up for the air loss, leading to increased energy usage and accelerated wear and tear on the HVAC unit.
When should ducting be replaced?
Many people don’t realize they have a ducting issue until a professional assesses their home. By this time, replacement is generally needed. If you are experiencing any of the following issues, it might be time to give us a call.
- Uneven heating or cooling: Because ducts carry air throughout your home, an issue can keep certain rooms from receiving the air they need to be comfortable.
- Higher energy bills: While there are a few different reasons your energy bills can rise, a ducting issue can certainly be the culprit. If your HVAC system seems to be running for longer periods of time, air loss could be the reason and the ducting might need to be addressed.
- Lingering odors or smoke: Ducts are responsible for fresh air coming to the home and for stale air to exit, so if your space feels stale then getting the ducts checked is a good idea.
What is involved in ducting replacement?
The first step we take when assessing ducts is to determine if they can be repaired. If the answer is no, it’s usually because there is significant damage or a major blockage. When ducts must be replaced, our team ensures the new system will efficiently reach every room in the design phase. From there, new ducts are added and each seam is checked rigorously to ensure it’s airtight. After installation, the ducts are insulated to ensure air inside remains at the desired temperature until it reaches its destination. By taking these steps, we can guarantee a proper installation from start to finish.
