If you have one room in your home that stays hot while the others are freezing, or if you feel weak airflow from your vents, your ductwork is likely to blame. In typical Florida homes, the ductwork runs through a hot attic. If there are leaks, gaps, or poorly balanced registers, your AC has to run longer and work harder, driving up your monthly FPL bill.
The Impact of Leaky Attic Ducts
According to the Department of Energy, the average home loses 20 to 30 percent of the air moving through the duct system due to leaks, holes, and poor connections. Duct Leak Repair and professional Duct Sealing involve finding these gaps in your attic and sealing them with mastic or metal tape. This keeps cold air inside your living spaces and hot attic dust out of your system.
Improving Comfort with Airflow Balancing
Even if your ducts are sealed, you might have uneven comfort. Airflow Balancing involves measuring the air output in each room and adjusting the dampers in the attic so that air is distributed evenly. We also perform:
- Ductwork Installation & Replacement: If your old ducts are collapsed or water-damaged, we replace sections for maximum flow.
- Return Air Duct Installation: Adding a return duct in bedrooms reduces air pressure imbalances, helping your system cycle efficiently.
- Vent Repair & Register Replacement: We replace broken registers and repair vent connections.
Sealing leaky ducts is one of the most cost-effective ways to lower your energy bill. Most Lake Nona homeowners recoup the cost of duct sealing within 12–18 months in energy savings.
