Better Air Quality & Extra Savings With Aeroseal Duct Sealing!
Your air ducts are responsible for carrying conditioned air throughout your home. Ideally, that’s all they would carry. But, if they have damage and have developed leaks, two unfortunate things will happen. First, some of that conditioned air will leak out, making your AC or heater have to work harder to keep your home at the right temperature.
Secondly, dust, debris, allergens and more can actually get pulled into your ductwork. Doing that will spread it throughout every room in your house, reducing your indoor air quality. But in either case, the team here at LBA services has the perfect solution. With Aeroseal duct sealing, you can be sure that every nook and cranny in your ductwork is reinforced and locked down so your indoor air quality doesn't have to suffer.
Sealing HVAC ducts is a crucial task for improving energy efficiency and indoor comfort. While some DIY duct sealing products are available, sealing ducts can be a challenging and labor-intensive process. Properly sealing ducts requires identifying leaks and using appropriate sealing materials. For optimal results and to ensure all leaks are sealed correctly, it's best to hire a professional HVAC technician. They have the expertise, tools, and experience to perform duct sealing effectively, improving the system's efficiency and reducing energy wastage.
The best method of duct sealing is using mastic sealant or metal-backed tape specifically designed for HVAC systems. Mastic sealant is a flexible, durable compound that adheres well to duct surfaces and effectively seals leaks and gaps. Metal-backed tape provides a long-lasting and secure seal. Professional HVAC technicians typically use a combination of mastic sealant and metal-backed tape to ensure all leaks and gaps are properly sealed, reducing energy loss and improving the overall efficiency of the HVAC system.
Yes, duct sealing is worth it as it offers several benefits. Properly sealed ducts can significantly improve energy efficiency, reducing energy waste and lowering utility bills. It also enhances indoor comfort by ensuring consistent airflow and temperature distribution. Duct sealing helps improve indoor air quality by preventing the entry of dust, allergens, and pollutants into the ductwork. Additionally, it prolongs the lifespan of the HVAC system and reduces the likelihood of breakdowns. While duct sealing may have upfront costs, the long-term savings and improved performance make it a worthwhile investment.
What Is Aeroseal Duct Sealing?
Instead of manually inspecting every inch of your ductwork for leaks to repair, Aeroseal duct sealing is an automatic process that seeks out every single leak and seals them away. The process is carried out in three simple steps:
Step 1: Prep
First our technicians will block off all of your vents and registers so your system can be pressurized. Any part of your HVAC system that needs to be protected from our sealant is likewise isolated. The Aeroseal device is able to detect and measure the current amount of leakage you have, giving you a “before” snapshot of your system.
Step 2: Seal
Your system is pressurized and the water-based, nontoxic sealing formula is sprayed into your system where it automatically seeks out and begins to seal any leaks or holes. Only the minimum amount of sealant necessary is used, so there is no waste and virtually no cleanup. In as little as 60 minutes or up to a few hours, your system is sealed.
Step 3: Enjoy
You receive documentation on the sealing process, showing you the “after” measurements of your system and guaranteeing your 10-year warranty. Then you get to see your energy costs go down and your air quality go up.
What Are The Benefits Of Air Duct Sealing?
The biggest advantage of Aeroseal duct sealing is that the expected hot or cold air can make it throughout your home to keep you comfortable. But, the benefits don’t stop there:
- Save Money - Less wasted energy means lower power bills
- Eco-Friendly - Saving that energy is better for the environment
- No Backdrafting - If you have a propane or CO leak, keep it from being pulled into your home
- Clean Air - Your ductwork doesn’t pull allergens or infectious agents inside
- Fewer Pests - Sealed ductwork gives bugs and other pests one less entry into your house
