Leaky Ducts Lead To Decreased System Performance
Sealing and insulating your ducts increases system efficiency, lowers your energy bills, and can often pay for itself in energy savings. Plus, if you’re planning to install new heating and cooling equipment, a well-designed and sealed duct system may allow you to downsize to a smaller, less costly heating and cooling system that will provide better dehumidification.
Poor system performance leads to higher bills.

25-40% ENERGY LOSS
"Typical duct systems lose 25-40 percent of the heating and cooling energy put out by the central furnace, heat pump or air conditioner. Duct repairs could be the most important energy improvement measure you can do.”
For an average home, leaky ducts can waste hundreds of dollars each year. Duct leakage also lowers the heating and cooling capacity and can lessen equipment life.

Thinking About Buying A New AC Or Heating System?
Don’t let your old ducts keep you from getting the high performance you are paying for!
An investment in a new high-efficiency heating and cooling system should save significantly on your utility bills. However, you won’t save much if your existing ductwork is in bad shape. Plus, if you’re planning to install new heating and cooling equipment, a well-designed and sealed duct system may allow you to downsize to a smaller, less costly heating and cooling system that will provide better dehumidification
Here’s a Short Checklist Of Steps to Take When Looking Into Replacing Your Equipment:
- Slow down and do your research.
- Find a contractor who can follow best industry practices when selecting a new system.
- Get a comprehensive home & duct performance assessment.
- Have test ran to measure air duct leakage, airflow and static pressure

Bigger Is Not Always Better
Does your current system seem to run non-stop, or do you have rooms that are too hot or too cold? If you were unhappy with your old unit, don’t just assume you need bigger equipment. The real cause may be a bad duct system. It’s rare to find a unit that actually is undersized. More often, the real problem is a weak duct system, air leaks, missing insulation, or inadequate maintenance.
Oversized Heating & Cooling System Leads to
Buying new high-efficiency heating and cooling equipment, and then hooking it up to the typical inefficient duct system, is like buying a super-fuel efficient hybrid car and then driving it with a leakin the gas tank.
- Higher Utility Bills
- Uneven Temperatures
- Increased Noise
- Greater Duct Leakage
- More Breakdowns & Repair Bills
- Uncomfortable Summertime Humidity
- Increased Mold, Dust Mites, and Allergies
