How to Identify it and What to Do About it
Did you know that nearly 40 percent of the conditioned air from your central heating and cooling system may need to be made to the rooms it is supposed to reach? The main culprit is leaking air ducts. It's often the reason some rooms never feel comfortable and the furnace or AC runs seems to run longer than it should, wasting energy and costing you money.
Your home's ductwork is full of joints, curves and creases that can allow air to leak out. A professional HVAC technician can identify these leaks and offer solutions for providing tighter, improved airflow throughout the home. One option is professional duct sealing. Duct sealing involves measuring the rate of air entering and returning in through the HVAC system.
The first step to fixing air duct leaks is to have ABC inspect the efficiency of your HVAC system. We can identify any problem areas and recommend solutions to reduce air leaks. We offer advanced diagnostics and high performance AeroSeal® duct sealing to help your heating and cooling system operate at peak efficiency.

How to Extend the Life of Your Water Heater with Routine Maintenance
Maintaining both tank-style and tankless water heaters is crucial for their efficiency and longevity. Tank-style heaters should be drained annually to remove sediment, checked for leaks and rust, inspected for proper venting (for gas heaters), tested for relief valve functionality, and monitored for thermostat settings and pilot light status. Placing a pan underneath helps detect leaks. Tankless heaters require cleaning of the screen filter and periodic flushing with vinegar to prevent lime and scale buildup. Following manufacturer recommendations and consulting a plumber for assistance ensures proper maintenance and adherence to warranty conditions without risking chemical contamination of the water supply.READ MORE -
