Common Issues with Air Ducts

Our technicians are familiar with a few common issues that affect residential ductwork. These include:

  • Leakage: You may be losing as much as 40% of circulating air due to holes and tears in air ducts. This can make your air conditioning system very inefficient. Oftentimes, leakage issues can be corrected with professional sealing.
  • Dirt: Dust, air pollutants, viruses, and bacteria can collect in ducts and then recirculate back inside your home. The concentration of pollutants can be many times more than outside, making indoor air quality a major concern.
  • Mold Growth: Excess moisture can allow mold to grow in areas you never see. Mold can then spread throughout the system, cause blockages, or release harmful toxins. Periodic duct inspections are therefore crucial in spotting any trouble.
  • Smoke Damage: If there has been a fire in your home, chances are smoke made its way into the ductwork. At the very least, smoke particles will collect with other debris and can cause metal surfaces in air ducts to corrode. Rusting is a serious problem for old ducts as well.
  • Poor Design: Design flaws include equipment not properly sized for your home, grills and registers that aren’t properly sealed, and flexible plastic ducts that are crushed, twisted, or kinked. These issues can cause serious problems with air circulation.

Do You Need to Replace Your Air Ducts?

An inadequate duct system can cause even the best rated HVAC systems to run inefficiently. Even if the rest of your air conditioning equipment is properly sized, it cannot function at peak capacity if the duct system doesn’t supply and return the right amount of air. Replacing air ducts is therefore an important job.

You should consider replacement if your home is old and still has its original ducts. Leakage due to physical damage as well as smoke damage, water damage, and rusting are all reasons to consider replacing your air ducts. Dirty fiberboard ducts should be replaced as should flexible ducts that have developed mold. Replacement can resolve many issues and also allows you to benefit from newer and more efficient air ducts.

5 Star review
“I was very happy with our service technician, Tommy. He sent us an e-mail & text (w/ his photo) before he arrived. He took off his shoes and wore disposable booties on his feet and was polite & respectful. He explained what we needed, in plain English, and patiently answered our many questions. He e-mailed me an estimate within 10 minutes of leaving our condo. He even paid some attention to our Cat ! My sister & I were very impressed.”

“I admit I had a little sticker shock when I was quoted $466 to snake a clogged kitchen drain. I did receive a $30 discount as a first time customer. That said, I was very happy with the service. They came the next day at the promised time and took the time and effort to do the job right and explain what they were doing and how to avoid future issues. They left me some solution to to pour down my drain. The plumber was professional and very courteous. I gave four stars instead of five only because I thought they were a little pricey. Nonetheless I’d use them again.”

“Excellent service! I felt very well informed about all my options. The company calls, texts and emails when a service provider is on the way. I’ll absolutely recommend them and use them in the future.”
Penny Dunn

“Very pleasant experience. Shane was very nice. After I showed him what I needed, he gave me an estimated cost and after I approved the estimate, got to work. About two hours later, he was done. I was very pleased. If I hadn’t known someone had been there, I would never guessed. Very neat and tidy. Highly recommended.”

Air Duct Replacement Services

When regular maintenance, cleaning and repairs are no longer fixing your air duct issues, it might be time to consider air duct replacement.
Replacing an entire system of air ducts can seem like a daunting task, but the HVAC experts at Cardinal Plumbing, Heating & Air are available to handle all of your air duct services.
Air ducts have a large impact on the safety and health of your home. While having properly working air ducts may seem inconsequential, ignoring problems can result in safety hazards such as carbon monoxide and poor air quality.
Your home is constantly impacted by chemicals from cooking, cleaning and even bathing products. Having an efficient and safe air duct system is integral for both air quality and the functionality of your HVAC unit.
The first step in having a safe and properly working air duct system is calling Cardinal Plumbing, Heating & Air to come inspect your air ducts and provide you with a diagnosis for any issues you may be experiencing.
Maintenance vs. Repair vs. Replacement
More often than not, the need for repairs or system replacement can be avoided through regular maintenance. This applies to plumbing, HVAC units and air ducts.
Providing your air ducts with proper care and maintenance is made easy through our Nest Protection Plan. When you choose our protection plan, you can leave regular care such as air duct cleaning and filter replacement to us.
Knowing when your air duct system only requires simple repairs can save you time and money. Signs to look out for when a repair is needed include leaky air ducts, poorly insulated systems or imbalanced ductwork.
