Common ductwork problems
- Aging ductwork may possibly begin to fall apart. Depending on the kind of ductwork in your home, over time in general 10 or more years, the outer liner starts to break down and the insulation falls off. If this occurs in an over 100-degree attic, the air temperature could be 10-15 degrees hotter by the time it enters the home, causing an increased home cooling cost of 40-60%. To solve this issue, all broken and damaged ductwork must be replaced.
- Air duct leaks, which take place when old duct sealant begins to break down or if the installing contractor did not properly seal the ductwork.
- Rodents, such as rats and squirrels, will as well damage ductwork in the hunt for a cool nest in the Texas heat. You might want to check your attic if you’ve had a previous rodent problem.
Some of the main causes of duct problems
Ducted heating and cooling systems are installed in such a way that they are hidden and are out of our sight, so when they require repairs, we hardly notice up until the air conditioning is very poor.
A lot of ducted heating systems and air conditioning have problems and generate issues over the years. Most of these problems are produced by rats, possums, cats, and other beings. They chew their way into the ductwork in search of a secure and cozy home, leaving the AC ducts damaged. You can’t see them, but then you can hear or smell them.
The damage left behind by possums is widespread and extensive, and usually all AC ducting will require replacement. Roanoke’s Best AC & Heater Repair by Abundant Air, LLC duct fixer team specializes in finding these problems and given that solutions to fix them.
Other animals like cats, dogs, and as well wombats settle on the ducts to keep themselves warm, leaving the AC ducts destroyed and restricting the amount of airflow.
Some ductwork is damaged because of floods. When the water gets within your AC ducts, it stays for a lengthy period of time causing the ducts to shrink and get damaged. At times people go into the ductwork, crush and damage them. Other times due to poor installation or because of the air conditioning vents being far away from the heating unit there is less airflow in some parts of the house.
