Air duct replacement and repair

A leaking duct is a hole in your budget

If your duct system is damaged or contains leaks, your home's energy use and your energy bill increase exponentially and proportionately. When the system is compromised it requires significantly more energy to keep your home at a comfortable temperature, which can amount to thousands of dollars wasted on electric bills.

Worse, the air escaping from supply ducts has to be replaced by air pulled in somewhere else — usually through the attic, the crawl space or the wall cavities, along with everything living in them.

What we actually find up there

Flex duct crushed under stored boxes or stepped on during another trade's work. Runs that came apart at the collar and now dump conditioned air straight into the attic. Sagging duct with standing kinks that choke airflow to the farthest room in the house.

Tape that dried out and released, insulation sleeves torn open, and registers connected to nothing at all. None of it is visible from inside the house, which is exactly why it goes on for years.

Repair or replace, and how we decide

A single failed connection on an otherwise sound system is a repair. A system where the liner is degraded, the runs are undersized or the material has absorbed rodent contamination is a replacement, because sealing dirty duct just seals the dirt inside.

These are only a small handful of reasons to consider calling Attic Heroes for your air duct needs. We value your family's respiratory health and the energy efficiency of your home, and our staff has over a cumulative decade of expertise in air duct replacement and repair.
