On average, the ducts in your home will last between 15 and 20 years. After that, their materials may degrade enough that simple repairs won’t suffice. It can result in collapsed duct sections that cut off airflow through your home. It may also allow enough air leakage to compromise your HVAC system’s ability to maintain the temperature you set. Unfortunately, most of your ducts are inside finished walls, and you can’t visually inspect them. Our HVAC specialists have the tools and knowledge to do that job for you. They’ll perform a duct evaluation and let you know if you need a ductwork replacement. If there’s only minimal damage, they’ll recommend repairs instead.

If you stay on top of the required duct maintenance, you can often prolong the life of your existing ducts. That includes making timely repairs as necessary. One of the most common issues older ducts suffer is failing seals and joints. Our duct specialists can reinforce joints with additional duct tape and use mastic to seal cracks and gaps. Doing so should restore your ducts to an uncompromised state without taking the more extreme step of replacing them.
