Air duct repair and sealing in Whittier

Leaking, torn, crushed or disconnected ducts can send heated or cooled air into the attic or crawl space instead of your rooms. We find the problem areas, then seal or replace the damaged sections.

Signs of a duct problem

  • One room is always too hot or too cold
  • Weak airflow from certain vents
  • Noise or whistling near a vent
  • Visible tears or sagging in the attic or crawl space
  • Insulation or debris coming from a register

Repair or seal?

Sealing suits small leaks and gaps at accessible joints. A section that is crushed, badly torn or wet usually needs replacing. Insulated duct that has become wet or moldy should be removed, because it cannot be cleaned effectively.

Sealing leaks is different from coating

We seal air leaks at the joints and connections. Spraying a coating inside ducts is a separate practice with its own trade-offs, and we would only discuss it with you first.

Common questions

Can a damaged duct raise my energy bill?
Air leaking out of a duct has been paid for but never reaches your rooms, so your system may run longer. How much depends on where and how large the leak is.
Should I repair ducts before cleaning them?
Often yes, or at the same visit. There is little point cleaning a line that is open to the attic. We will explain the order that makes sense.
