Are Your Ducts Messing With Your Comfort?

If you have a central air conditioner or a ducted heat pump in your home, there is one part of your system that can have a major impact on your comfort: your ductwork. This delivery system for the cool air in your home is vital to your comfort. However, if there is something wrong with your ductwork, it can ruin your home’s comfort level too.

If there is a problem with your ducts such as a leak or a disconnect, it is going to ruin your air conditioner’s airflow into your house. So how do you deal with it? If your ductwork is in serious disrepair, scheduling Miami duct testing and replacement may be your best option.

How Do I Know Something Is Wrong With My Ductwork

The sooner you can determine that there is a problem with your ductwork the better. The question a lot of people have is, “how?” Be on the lookout for some of these warning signs that you need to schedule services for your ducts:

  • The airflow coming out of your vents is weaker than usual.
  • There is extra dust coming out of your ducts.
  • Your AC isn’t cooling your home as effectively as it used to.
  • Your energy bills are increasing.
  • You have hot spots or rooms around the house.

What Does Duct Testing Do?

If you are picking up on a problem with your ductwork, you will want to schedule duct testing first. This service is going to test the air pressure in your ductwork. When it is performed by professionals, testing will help to determine whether there are multiple leaks in your ducts or even a full break in the ducts. From there, you and your technician can determine what the best solution will be.

When Do You Need a Duct Replacement?

If there is a problem with your ductwork, it may mean that you need a duct replacement. This is no small job of course, so it shouldn’t be done unless it is truly necessary. A replacement may be necessary for homes with aging ductwork that is simply starting to break down and fall apart. This also may be a service that is needed for ductwork that has begun to accrue too many leaks or holes in it to actually deliver a reliable amount of cool air to your home. A replacement may be a good idea as well if the initial installation of your ductwork was done poorly and has left you with a lot of airflow problems.

Professional Ductwork Services Will Improve Your Comfort

Whether your ducts are simply a little dirty or they need to be fully replaced, you need to schedule these services with a professional technician. Only a trained professional is going to be able to provide you with the services that benefit your ductwork and your comfort. In contrast, an amateur may leave your ducts in worse condition than when you started!
