Last summer, I noticed that multiple rooms of the condo felt warmer than others.
Certain areas were downright overheated, even though the cooling system was running more often than normal.
When I started paying closer attention, I realized that there was an excess of dust circulating in the air and a slight musty stink. Thinking there was a concern with the cooling system, I busy a repair. The company who tested the cooling component found nothing more than a slight buildup of dust within the inner workings. When every one of us tested the air duct, however, he confirmed that approximately 25% of our conditioned air was leaking out of flaws in the pipes. Holes in the ducts and cracks at the seams were not only allowing air to escape however also drawing in outside air and contaminants. Because the maximum amount of air wasn’t being distributed throughout the house, the cooling system was forced to toil harder to meet temperature control settings. The wear and tear would have eventually led to a malfunction or even premature failure. Plus, I was paying higher utility bills for reduced comfort. The duct sealing process was quick and effective. The specialist obstructed off the supply and return vents and then pumped pressurized air into the system. This air was laced with non-polymer particles that are adhesive. When the air leaked from the multiple imperfections, the particles gathered along the edges and created an airslim seal. By sealing the ducts from the inside, there was no destruction to the loft and no mess. The duct sealing process was guided by a tablet program, and the specialist performed testing to verify the results.
