Reduce Pollutants & Allergens
A well-sealed system will not only help maximize the performance of the HVAC system, but it will also reduce the amount of pollutants, allergens, and dust circulating within the home.
Why Seal The Ductwork?
Homes that have forced air heating and cooling systems have ductwork to distribute the air throughout the home. The HVAC system works just like the human body’s respiratory system. When the system is running it is pushing air out to heat or cool the home; and it is pulling air in so that it can push the air out again. It functions just like “breathing”. But why is the home so dusty? Why are the utility bills so high? The answer is duct leakage. Sealing the ductwork properly will help reduce utility costs, polluted air, and it allows the air to flow to each designated areas. And if the ductwork has significant duct leakage it causes the system to perform below its optimal efficiency and shortens the life of the equipment.
Supply Side Leaks
Return Side Leaks
Return side leaks pose a more serious problem. When the return side of your HVAC system leaks, it draws outdoor air into your home. This can force your furnace or air conditioner to run constantly to maintain your desired indoor temperature, leading to higher energy bills. Additionally, it can cause increased humidity levels in your home.
The greatest concern with return side leaks is that they can pull in allergens, pollutants, dust, carbon monoxide, and even insulation particles into your HVAC system. These contaminants are then distributed throughout your home, potentially affecting your health. This may contribute to the rising incidence of health issues such as asthma, cancer, and allergies.
The Bottom Line
When it comes to improving a home to make it more energy efficient, save on utility costs and to make it a healthier home, duct sealing should be one of the first things to consider. The sealing of the ductwork may also lengthen the life of the equipment, make the home more comfortable and help to clean the air you are breathing.
