We specialize in HVAC ductwork and even have our own sheet metal fabricators and sheet metal shop. Ducts are an integral but oft-overlooked aspect of central HVAC systems. In fact, if you have air leakage, you could lose 20% or more of your heating and cooling. That adds up significantly over the course of a year. It also makes your system work harder, and your long-term equipment costs go up.

    Precision Duct Repair Services

    The best way to determine if you need duct repair services in Pennsauken is to schedule a ductwork inspection. During that inspection, we’ll inspect the exterior of your ducts where accessible. Our inspector will also perform an interior inspection using a high-definition camera system. That allows us to find problems like blockages, worn seals, and mold.

    How often should you schedule an inspection? We recommend an annual inspection. This is advice that the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) echoes. You can even schedule one of your seasonal HVAC tune-up appointments alongside. That said, if you are experiencing an issue, you should schedule an inspection as soon as possible.

    Worn seals are a common issue that causes air leakage. Another possibility is that the mounting hardware has failed and caused the seals to rupture. If you have this issue, rising energy consumption is often the first sign of it. You may also experience weak airflow from certain or even all vents. This can manifest in several ways. You may experience cold or warm spots. Your home may have an entire room that either feels too hot or too cold. You can also experience a 2-degree or greater difference between floors.

    The most common way to reseal ducts is through the aerosol method, which is approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). If you’re experiencing heating and cooling losses between 20% and 40%, this technique can reduce that loss to less than 5%.

    Restored ductwork can provide your home many benefits:
    • Reduced energy costs
    • Quieter HVAC operation
    • More consistent comfort
    • Lower long-term equipment costs
    • Smaller household carbon footprint
