Duct Sealing

In homes with forced-air heating and cooling systems, duct systems are used to distribute the conditioned air throughout the house. If your home’s duct work was not installed or sealed properly, you could be losing a significant amount of conditioned air to unnecessary areas like attics, walls and crawlspaces. An improperly sealed duct is like a leaky garden hose sending water to areas where you do not want it.

The result of leaky ducts results in higher energy bills due to low efficiency in moving conditioned air. If the duct system is too bad, you may not be able to control temperatures in certain parts of your home no matter how you set the thermostats. Because duct work is often hidden in walls and between floors, it can be difficult to repair or even to inspect. However, duct work in crawlspaces, basements and attics can be easier to access and repair with duct sealant or mastic.

SENCON can inspect your ducts and suggest the best way to ensure that conditioned air goes precisely were you want it, in the living spaces of your home.
