Duct Sealing Can Save You Money!

Mar 08, 2022

When we feel inconsistent temperatures in our homes, have poor air quality and drafts, most homeowners are quick to replace windows, doors and invest in new heating systems. However, if the ducts that distribute the air and heat throughout your home are leaky or improperly installed, they may be the real culprit!

At FLC, they include extensive testing of the ductwork in your home during their energy audits and evaluations. Similar to the blower door test, they use a fan and air pressure gauge, along with sophisticated software to measure the rate of air leaking from your ducts. This process helps determine the real cause of energy losses and make the most helpful and cost-efficient improvements to your home’s HVAC system.

Did you know...  The average duct system leaks between 20-40%! 

If their test shows the system is in poor condition, FLC will seal any holes, gaps or disconnected ducts using a combination of sealing materials, depending on the size and location of the leaks. After the work has been completed, they perform a “test out." This "test-out" measures the system's improvement and ensures that you've gotten the work you expected!
