]]> If you’re frustrated at the apparent inefficiency of your HVAC system, it’s important to know that the culprit may not be in the machinery. In fact, you could have a perfectly efficient air conditioner and furnace but still have issues with efficiency if your ducts are not properly sealed.

Duct sealing is part art and part science, and it results in a system of well-insulated and sealed ducts that efficiently deliver air throughout your home. If this sounds like an upgrade your ducts could use, keep reading to learn more about the process involved.

What is the Average Cost to Seal Your Air Ducts

Unlike other HVAC repairs, the average cost of air duct sealing depends largely on the existing infrastructure. For an average job, though, you can expect to pay anywhere from $1,000 to $2,500. The large range of average costs reflects the reality that no two jobs are alike, meaning it’s best to have a technician stop by to give you a more accurate estimate.

Factors That Affect the Cost of Duct Sealing

Factors that determine the cost of a duct sealing project include the size and age of the ductwork, the size of your home, the accessibility of the ductwork, and how the ductwork is currently sealed and insulated. Here is a more detailed explanation of some of these factors.

The first and most important factor that determines the cost is the size and age of your ductwork. A sprawling system of ducts that are retrofitted to an older home will be quite complicated to seal and insulate properly, thus raising the cost. On the other hand, a smaller home that was built recently and still has most of its ducts exposed will be lower in cost.

To add to this point is the fact that dual HVAC systems typically double the cost involved in duct sealing. Since each system of ducts is separate from the other, each has to be treated as its own individual project. Given the benefits of duct sealing, though, this increased cost is well worth it.

As mentioned, the accessibility of the ductwork also plays an important role in determining the price of a duct sealing project. If your home’s ductwork is located in an unfinished attic or basement, then it is a prime candidate for duct sealing. This is because, in addition to being easy to access, these exposed ducts are in desperate need of insulation to improve their efficiency.

This idea of exposed ducts overlaps with the last factor determining duct sealing cost, and that is the current status of your ducts when it comes to sealing and insulation. If your ducts are neither sealed nor insulated, the project cost will be higher than if the joints of your ducts are already sealed.

Alternatively, if your ducts have been previously sealed and insulated, but those measures have become worn out, then it will cost more to remove the old insulation, clean the ducts, and install new materials.

How Long Does Duct Sealing Take?

In an ideal environment, the average duct sealing job takes about two hours. This refers exclusively, however, to putting mastic sealant on the duct joints and allowing it to dry. Additionally, this assumes that the ducts are easily accessible and that no other extenuating circumstances present themselves during the course of the project.

Beyond these foundational factors, most of the same factors that influence the price of a project also determine its longevity. Obviously, larger, harder-to-access ducts will take longer to seal properly than easy-to-access ducts in a small home. Additionally, it’s a good idea to have your ducts sealed in a secondary manner, which is also called insulating your ducts. In insulation, plywood or foam is used to isolate the soffit where the ducts are located from the rest of the surrounding space.

This is especially important if your ducts are in an uninsulated attic or basement, as the ducts need to be protected from extreme temperatures in order to allow your HVAC system to work efficiently. If you desire to have your ducts sealed in this manner, along with the basic sealing of joints, then this will add significant time to the project.

What are the Benefits of Duct Sealing?

Duct sealing helps your HVAC system to operate more efficiently in a variety of ways. Two key components of duct efficiency are a duct’s ability to move air from place to place without being interrupted and a duct’s ability to minimize energy transfer with the surrounding air, meaning you don’t want them to transfer heat or cold until the air gets to the room you are trying to heat or cool. Duct sealing helps with both of these things.

When it comes to uninterrupted airflow, duct sealing helps by filling in the gaps that are present at each joint in the ducts. As air flows through the ducts, these joints can allow air to escape, which can reduce the overall heating and cooling capacity of your HVAC system. If the joints, and any other holes, are sealed, however, then all the air that leaves the central HVAC system will arrive at the vents.

As far as minimizing energy transfer, duct sealing helps prevent unconditioned air from the cavities where ducts are located from entering into the ducts. Since air of different temperatures seeks to mix until it reaches equilibrium, the unconditioned air outside the ducts and the conditioned air inside the ducts are at risk of mixing, thus lowering the efficiency of your HVAC system. If the ducts are sealed, however, this mixing is much less likely, meaning your home will be heated and cooled much more quickly and efficiently.

]]> Why You Need to Look Into Duct Cleaning to Clean the Air in Your Home

There is often much attention given to maintaining and repairing the central components of your HVAC system. These components typically include your furnace, air conditioner, and blower fan. While it is certainly crucial to keep these components well-maintained, there is another component of your HVAC system that you should work to maintain as well. That component is your system’s ducts.

Without properly functioning ducts, your HVAC system can’t send the air where it needs to be, meaning your home will remain uncomfortable, even as you waste energy to change the temperature of the air. That’s why it’s crucial to keep your ducts in pristine condition at all times. To help you better understand this process, here is a guide to some of the basics of air duct cleaning.

What is the Average Cost to Clean Your HVAC Ducts

Though the cost can vary, the average cost of duct cleaning ranges anywhere from $250-$500, though there are a host of different factors that go into determining the ultimate cost of the project. Understanding the importance of this service, HVAC companies work hard to limit its cost to ensure as many people as possible can afford to have it done.

Factors That Affect the Cost

The main factor that determines the price is the number of vents in your home. Typically, a duct cleaning project is charged per vent, meaning that the more vents you have, the more the project will usually cost.

Of course, if you have long duct runs in a home with few vents, that can also change the cost of duct cleaning, as more time and equipment will be needed to properly clean your ducts. This means that the configuration of the ducts in your home plays a big factor. Ducts that are designed with tight turns are more difficult to properly clean than ducts that are generally straight.

One last factor is the overall size of your home. In especially large homes, extra crew members may be needed to expedite the completion of your duct cleaning project, which will increase the cost of the project.

How Long Does Air Duct Cleaning Take?

Thanks to the specialized machines used to clean ducts, the process of duct cleaning usually only takes between two to four hours. As with the price, though, there are many different factors that can affect how long a specific project takes.

First and foremost, the size of your ductwork will have the biggest impact on how long it takes to complete a project. Duct cleaning must be done slowly and methodically to ensure all the dirt and dust is removed. Therefore, if you have an especially large system of ducts, it will take longer to clean them in a satisfactory manner.

Another factor in the length of a project is the amount of dust and dirt that has to be removed. If your ducts are especially clogged, it may take more than one pass to properly remove all the debris. Plus, if the dust and dirt have been in your ducts for a particularly long time, it tends to be more stuck to the ducts, making it more difficult and time-consuming to remove.

As with price, the complexity of your ductwork also plays a role in the length of a project. If you have ducts that are routed unusually or are simply poorly designed, it will take extra time to clean your ducts correctly.

Poor duct design is often present in older homes, especially those whose ducts were added after the building was completed. In trying to fit the ducts into a pre-existing space, duct installers often made compromises in the design of the ducts that make those ducts more difficult to clean. Therefore, though these ducts had the benefit of adding central air and heating to an older home, they have the drawback of taking longer to clean.

Why is the Service Needed?

The importance of duct cleaning was briefly touched on at the beginning of this guide. Ducts are crucial to the proper flow of air throughout your home. Therefore, they need to be properly maintained to help support this proper airflow. There are many other reasons why duct cleaning is important, though.

The most important reason you should have your ducts cleaned is to help protect the health of your family. Dusty and dirty ducts can encourage mold growth that can cause sneezing, sore throats, and other symptoms in your family. Older homes may even have small particles of lead in the dust in their ducts, which, if released by blowing air, can lead to serious health consequences.

Another reason to keep your ducts clean is to support the efficient operation of your HVAC system. Your blower motor has a specific output capacity that is rated assuming an unobstructed airflow from the source to the vents.

However, any imperfections in the duct design can reduce this airflow. Additional, large amounts of debris in your ducts can further reduce the airflow, thus increasing the work your system has to do to bring your home to the desired temperature. If you have clean ducts, though, you can be sure that your system will be able to get all the air it produces to where it belongs, which is in the various rooms around your home.

Finally, proper duct cleaning helps to prolong the life of your ducts. During the warm months, when you’re running your air conditioner regularly, condensation can appear in the ducts, especially in areas that are poorly insulated. For clean ducts, this isn’t a big deal, as the moisture simply evaporates when air blows through. For dusty and dirty ducts, though, the moisture can be held in place, which can eventually create rust and cause your ducts to fail.

An Easy Decision to Elect for Air Duct Cleaning

Given the low cost and fast completion of duct cleaning, it’s an easy decision to have this service done. If protecting your family and your home is important to you, then duct cleaning is an easy way to do both. The important thing is to have your duct cleaning completed by a professional, as trying to do it yourself with a long vacuum hose will typically result in a lot of dust being released into your home without the majority being removed from the ducts. If you decide to treat yourself and your ducts to a thorough cleaning, then you can schedule your duct cleaning today.

]]> Ventilation cleaning is a form of home maintenance that reduces pollutants that have built up in our home duct work from being blown back into the air we breathe inside our residence. This form of maintenance has really taken off in recent years as we have more knowledge of clean air and how impurities affect our lives. This is something that should be done yearly by a qualified professional to ensure the job is complete and risk minimized. Continue reading this article if you think your home needs ventilation cleaning performed and what exactly is hiding in your vents.

Why Our Home’s Air Quality is so Important!

One of the biggest issues plaguing society today is mold in our homes. It hides in the dark recesses and can cause serious respiratory issues including death. Our duct work is made of metal and depending on the temperature changes in the home, may sweat and actually start growing mold. These spores are then circulated into our living space as the system cycles affecting the air quality in the home. A professional, besides cleaning the ducts, will spray a solution in mist form into the vent work to kill off the mold and ensure the air we breathe is safe.

Most of us question where all the dust comes from in our homes and may even blame it on heavy foot traffic. While this is true, much of that dust has found its way into the vents and has built up for years to the point it simply blows back into the air and eventually makes its way back into the vents repeating the cycle. Ventilation cleaning will remove all of these particles and make the air we breathe noticeably cleaner as well as reducing the amount of dust build up on tables and TV’s.

Ventilation cleaning can be the best money you spend on your home. The vents are visibly cleaner and the fresh air smell will open your eyes to how bad the problem was. If you haven’t done so in the last year, it is more than likely time to call someone in to clean your vents and your ducts.

]]> When it comes to ventilation cleaning, people have mixed views on whether or not it is actually necessary. The main thing people have concerns about with regards to getting your ducts cleaned is whether or not cleaning them will help prevent any health problems from occurring. Now it should be noted that none of the studies on vents have yielded concrete proof that vents that are not cleaned can lead to future health problems. However it is also important to note that these sorts of studies are relatively new and the whole arena is still in its early stages.

One thing that can be proven is that sheet metal, can indeed be a ground for mold. Often times the only way to tell whether you’ve got mold or not is through visual inspection. Unfortunately for most, many areas and sections of your ventilation is not visually accessible. Aside from ventilation cleaning for health reasons you may also want to do it for performance reasons as well.

Some people believe that a good cleaning will help improve the efficiency of your eating and cooling system. With no particles in the way, your entire HVAC system can more around much easier. This is particularly true for ventilation systems that are larger than normal.

Whether you decide to get your vents cleaned or not is strictly up to you. However, if you or someone in your household suffers from asthma or has a dust allergy, it might be a good idea to go through ventilation cleaning annually. This will significantly reduce the amount of dust in your house which will improve the health of you and your loved ones dramatically.
