Aeroseal Duct Sealing: The Gold Standard For Energy Savings and Indoor Comfort

Air duct leaks can be detrimental. They force HVAC units to work harder while yielding less substantial results. Usually, one can attempt to repair leaks in exposed ductwork with duct tape, caulking, or other conventional methods. However, these quick fixes will typically have little success. There may be more small holes within the system that are only accessible through the walls. Instead of breaking down your walls, Mechanical Technologies is now offering Aeroseal Duct Repair, which acts as a sealant throughout your duct system. It effectively patches up any small holes you have throughout your system.

How Does Aeroseal Work?

Aeroseal is a 6-step process in which your duct system is temporarily sealed throughout your house, allowing us to perform a forced air injection into the duct work. The forced air heats up adhesive particles that will stick to the small hole until the hole is sealed. The adhesive only coats the holes, not your ducts. The adhesive will not dry out or crumble with age.

Our certified technicians will provide you with a computer analysis of your system’s air leakage before and after the repair is performed. In most cases, over 80% of the air leakage is repaired. This makes your cooling and heating much more efficient and effective, saving you money on your utility bills. The entire process takes about one hour. That’s one hour to save the money you were otherwise wasting on ineffective repairs and higher energy costs.

The Benefits of Aeroseal Duct Sealing

The process of Aeroseal duct sealing will yield many positive results. Home comfort, improved indoor air quality and energy savings are the three most substantial benefits. If you experience dramatic fluctuations in temperature from room to room, duct leaks may be to blame. With Aeroseal duct sealing, these rooms will be able to receive the proper conditioning. Leaky ducts tend to pull dust and mold into your home, creating an unhealthy environment. Properly sealing the leaks will halt the movement of pollutants, thus improving indoor air quality. Duct leaks can account for increased utility bills. On average, about 30 cents of every $1 spent on heating and cooling is lost due to air duct leaks. Aeroseal duct sealing can quickly and effectively deal with all these issues. If you are interested in Aeroseal duct sealing, Mechanical Technologies is here to help.
