Get Air Duct Testing and Stop Wasting Your Money
Count on the technicians at All Gas Heating & Cooling, Inc. to examine your air ducts for possible leaks. Our personnel will inspect your ductwork to determine their condition and make any necessary recommendations for sealing. The entire process is a quick, reliable, and cost-effective way to ensure you are not wasting energy and cash.
The Importance of Duct Testing
Studies show that 10% to 30% of heated and cooled air is lost due to leaky ducts, along with the energy and money spent treating that air. Properly sized, installed, and sealed ductwork will make your heating and cooling systems more efficient. Energy loss is not the only concern. Leaky duct systems can also affect the comfort of your family and your indoor air quality.
We conduct air duct testing to locate leaks or damages and determine the right areas to focus on repairs. Since your ducts are an integral component of your heating and cooling system, this area offers one of the best opportunities to increase your energy efficiency, boost your comfort, and manage your utility bills.
Get a duct leakage test done to gauge the efficiency of your HVAC system. Making just a few simple repairs to your leaky ducts can reduce your overall energy expenditure dramatically. Fixing your ductwork is especially crucial on hot summer days when your system may already strain to deliver clean air to every room.
Duct Sealing Standards
All sealing must be performed according to current Massachusetts State Building Codes and any related energy efficiency program standards. These codes and standards address the type of mastic sealant, pressure-sensitive tape, and band ties used to seal duct systems correctly.
The proper tape used for duct sealing will have a UL 181 marking or label on its outside surface. Likewise, the proper duct mastic sealant will also have a UL 181 label. To find out whether your duct pressure testing results indicate a need for sealing or another type of repair, talk to our technicians.
