The system of ductwork in your home is like a silent partner in your HVAC system. You probably don’t notice it, it doesn’t call much attention to itself, but it does a lot of the work that needs to be done. All year round, whether your furnace is making hot air or your air conditioner is making cold air, the ducts handle the distribution.
It’s important to have your furnace and air conditioner professionally maintained every year. But even if you do that, making sure those systems are as efficient and effective as possible, you might be wasting the hot and cold air they provide. Damaged ductwork causes your utility bills to be excessively high, and your furnace and AC to work too hard. How can you tell if you need duct repair?
