Improved Comfort
If your air ducts are not properly sealed, then they are going to leak conditioned air into areas of your home where it’s not really needed. When this happens, you may wind up heating and/or cooling different areas of your home to different temperatures, which in turn will leave your home less comfortable in certain areas than others. By having your ductwork expertly sealed, you can protect your comfort from such issues.
Improved Efficiency
Should you encounter the previous problem, then you’ll likely wind up suffering from a drop in energy efficiency as well. All of that conditioned air may not go to complete waste, as it will wind up somewhere in the home. However, as your system attempts to balance temperatures throughout your living space, it will use more energy than it should have to in doing so, driving up energy costs.
Improved Air Quality
Air escaping from your improperly sealed ductwork is a serious concern, but it’s not the only one. You also have to worry about pollutants making their way into your ductwork. When this happens, your system can wind up distributing those pollutants throughout your entire house. This will seriously reduce your indoor air quality, which is another great argument for the professional duct sealing process.
