Striking the right balance between energy efficiency and great indoor air quality is a struggle that many homeowners have trouble in overcoming.

Before you can schedule any necessary duct sealing services, of course, you must first realize that there is a need for such services to begin with. Read the following information, and contact Envirotech Air Quality Services if you have reason to believe that you require duct sealing service.
Signs That You Need to Seal Your Air Ducts
Your air ducts are hidden from view in your home, most likely. Because of this, you may wonder how it is that you are supposed to determine whether or not your air ducts are leaking. You don’t have to actually see a problem to know that there is one there, though. There are plenty of warning signs to be on the lookout for. If you notice your indoor air quality is slipping, for instance, it may be due to the fact that your air ducts are allowing pollutants into the system, and then distributing those pollutants throughout your whole home. You may also realize that you are paying more than usual to cool your home. Air leaking out of your system won’t disappear, but it may not make it to its intended end point. This can cause your AC to work harder than it should have to in order to cool your whole house. Uneven cooling is another sign that you may require professional duct sealing services.
Why Schedule Professional Duct Sealing?
You cannot hope to effectively seal your air ducts on your own, no matter how handy you may be. Not only must your air ducts be properly accessed to avoid damages, but it requires special mastic and other materials to seal ductwork properly. Duct tape is, in fact, never used by a trained professional. To learn more, or to schedule professional duct sealing service, contact the pros on our staff any time.
