Duct Repair & Duct Sealing in Pierre

Old, Leaky Ducts in Pierre Could Cost You

Ductwork is a key part of your Pierre home’s heating and air conditioning system. When it’s working properly, it delivers abundant comfort throughout your house.

An average home loses 20 to 30 percent of its conditioned air because of badly connected ducts and fractures in the ductwork. Air leaks can make your equipment work more than it needs to and lead to higher home energy costs.

There are a few indications that your home has poorly perfoming ducts:

Energy costs are increasing.

Rooms feel stuffy.

Ductwork is located in an uninsulated area, like an attic, crawl space or garage.

Your HVAC system is excessively noisy.

Ductwork Doesnt Last Forever

If you live in an older home, your ductwork might not be sufficient for up-to-date high-efficiency HVAC technology. Ducts and their related pieces—seams, seals and joists—begin to deteriorate around 15 years. They reach their maximum usability around 20 to 25 years.

Ductwork also expands and contracts throughout the seasons. These changes over the years can cause it to break apart and allow air to escape. Leaks can drive up your utility bills and lead to poor indoor air quality. Cracked ducts can pull in and circulate pollen, dust and other impurities.

Your attic, crawl space, garage or other uninsulated space could house some of your ductwork. Condensation can appear during periods of high humidity, causing rust to eat through the metal.

5 Signs You Need to Replace Your Ductwork

There are several other signs that can indicate ductwork needs to be replaced:
1.Your ducts are more than 15 years old.
2.Your home is extremely dusty, or allergies are bad at home.
3.You can’t manage the temperature in particular rooms.
4.You can see ducts that are misshapen.
5.You smell a strong mildew smell when your HVAC equipment is running.

Having Peitz Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning add new ductwork can make your home more comfortable—and healthier—through superior temperature management and air quality. Plus, it can boost your furnace’s and air conditioner’s efficiency.
Loose, Uninsulated Ducts Can Drive Up Energy Bills

An inefficient home can lose up to 30 percent of airflow through its ductwork. Holes in your air ducts can further complicate, reducing efficiency by as much as 20 percent.

Leaks can also draw in combustion gases like carbon monoxide that are supposed to be released in open air. Natural gas water heaters, clothes dryers and furnaces produce harmless amounts of CO during typical operation.

Trust the Experts at Peitz Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning when you need duct repair. We can seal air ducts and insulate them too. This can keep you more comfortable and possibly decrease your heating and cooling costs. A sealed and insulated duct system is also critical when you’re installing a new HVAC system.
