What are the Benefits of Aeroseal Duct Sealing

Unlike a leaky faucet or pipe, you can't see an air leak. Leaky ducts can be very costly to homeowners, not only because the system will not operate properly, but because ducts are often located behind walls and in ceilings that makes accessing them difficult. Adding an Aeroseal to the inside of your ducts upon installation will save you money in more ways than one.

How Does Aeroseal Work?

The Aeroseal process is rather simple due to vast advances in technology. Aeroseal software allows technicians to accurately pinpoint duct leakage in residential homes and commercial buildings. The process involves putting escaping air under pressure which causes polymer particles to stick first to the edges of a leak, and then to each other until the leak is closed.

How Will Aeroseal Help You Save on Energy Costs?

Having an Aeroseal installed can reduce duct leakage by up to 90%. This will help to control loss of cool and warm air in your home and will keep your system running at peak performance which will result in lower energy bills. Additionally, since your system will run more smoothly, it won't have to work as hard, which can lead to breakdowns and increased repair costs. You may also qualify for rebates from your energy provider.
