According
to the Department
of Energy
“The
typical duct system loses 25% to 40%
of the energy put out by the central air
conditioner.”
The problem
with leaky ductwork is that air not only can leak out of you HVAC system and
air ducts -- untreated and unclean air and contaminants from the attic can
actually be pulled in to the air you and your family breathe. We find 20% to 40% leakage in 3 out of 4 homes
we visit. Since so many air duct systems leak and pull
bad air in, poor air quality is a problem that many homes have.
Repairing and
patching leaks in HVAC duct systems saves cooling, heating, and fan energy. In
air-based systems, ducts deliver all of the heating and cooling to conditioned
spaces. Any duct leakage translates into extra air that must be supplied so
sufficient heating or cooling reaches the conditioned space. This not only
increases effective heating and cooling loads, it also increases fan energy due
to increased flow and/or run time. Sealing duct leaks reduces the amount of
heated or cooled air the supply fan must handle to deliver the same amount of
air to the conditioned space.
Poor indoor air quality can lead to poor health.
