In Fort Worth, Texas, my pal and I experience four seasons plus a wide range of weather conditions, but the summers are boiling plus humid while winters are cool plus rainy! My pal and I rely heavily on the air conditioner plus heater, and while the heating plus cooling units split the workload, the air duct operates morning in plus morning just about year round.
This concealed network of pipes is responsible for removing stale air plus introducing clean, conditioned air, however because the duct system is hidden inside walls, ceilings, the attic plus crawlspace, it’s straight-forward to ignore, then in the majority of homes, the air duct accounts for up to 30% of energy losses! Cracks, holes, gaps plus other imperfections allow the heated plus cooled air to escape.
These same flaws draw in unconditioned, potentially polluted air plus it gets distributed throughout the home, and high biweekly energy costs, unpleasant odors, contaminated air, temperature fluctuations plus repairs can often be blamed on faulty air duct. I make sure to have the air duct ran tests on every couple of years. While duct sealing plus duct cleaning are an expense, these services are cost-effective, but properly operating air duct allows the air conditioner plus furnace to run at peak efficiency. It ensures that the maximum amount of heated plus cooled air reaches the destination plus that this air is clean. When the air duct operates at its best, I don’t need to vacuum or dust as often. My family suffers from fewer colds, flu plus headaches. My pal and I sleep better at evening plus have more energy during the morning. Because my pal and I use less energy, our property is more environmentally responsible.
