Duct Sealing & Aeroseal Technology

You probably don’t devote that much attention to your ducts, as they are designed to be as unobtrusive as possible. However, that doesn’t mean that they can operate to their full potential without professional help. Ducts can develop problems over time just like any other system. If you want to have your ducts to be as efficient as possible, you’re going to need duct sealing services. SPS Mechanical Inc. offers a full range of duct sealing services throughout Deptford Township, NJ. If you need duct sealing services of any kind, call today to set up an appointment with one of our experts. We’ll make sure that your ducts help keep your home comfortable and your climate control systems efficient.

Why You Need Duct Sealing

Ducts are incredibly vulnerable to developing leaks, whether from being installed incorrectly or through years of expansion and contraction. While individual leaks tend to be fairly small, they definitely add up over time. The US Department of Energy has estimated that the average forced air system loses as much as 30% of its total output to duct leaks. That’s nearly a third of the total output that you’re paying for completely going to waste. A forced air system that has to use leaky ducts during operation will have to stay on for longer in order to achieve the same temperature changes, which means more money wasted and a less comfortable home. Duct sealing is the best way to deal with this issue.

The Aeroseal Advantage

Aeroseal is a method of duct sealing using technology developed by the Energy Performance of Buildings Group at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in 1994. Normally, duct sealing is conducted by manually painting a substance called mastic into the leaks. Aeroseal saves time by injecting a mist of particles into your ducts after they have been pressurized. These particles seek out leaks in the ductwork and adhere to the edges, sealing the leaks. The Aeroseal method saves time by applying these duct sealing particles to every leak in the system at once. It’s also much more thorough than manually finding and sealing each leak individually. With the Aeroseal method, you can rest assured that every leak in your home’s ducts will be properly sealed.

We Offer Comprehensive Duct Sealing Services

Duct leaks open over time as the ducts expand and contract with the temperature of the air. That means that even if you have your ducts sealed one time, new leaks will probably open later on. If you want to really protect your ducts from leaks, you need to have them examined and sealed every one or two years. Fortunately, that’s what we’re here for. SPS Mechanical Inc. offers a full range of duct sealing services throughout Deptford Township, NJ, including Aeroseal technology. With us handling your duct sealing services, you can be confident that your ducts are in the best possible shape. We’ll make sure that your ducts contribute to your home’s energy efficiency and comfort as much as possible. Call today for an appointment.
