When you\u2019re thinking about your heating system, the parts of it that come to mind are probably your furnace itself and maybe your thermostat, but you should focus more on your ductwork. Your ductwork is an extremely important part of your HVAC system, so without quality ductwork, you can\u2019t have quality heating. Forced-air heating systems rely heavily on your ductwork. Problems in your air ducts will cut into your comfort and it will quickly become issues with your heating.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re heating in the winter or cooling in the summer, all the conditioned air in your home has to pass through your network of ducts. If you don\u2019t have your ducts cleaned on a routine basis, they\u2019re easily clogged with debris and the efficiency is lowered drastically. The natural wear and tear that your ductwork incurs may also lead to leaks or tears within your ductwork that cause issues.<\/p>\n Need help looking for the warning signs that you need duct repair? Here are a few:<\/p>\n Strange Noises<\/strong>: Your ductwork isn\u2019t silent. When there\u2019s a large amount of air flowing through your system you\u2019re bound to hear some noises as the ducts expand and contract due to the heat. If you hear an occasional popping sound from your ducts, there\u2019s nothing to worry about, but other loud noises that persist for much longer are a huge problem. If this is a problem in your home, then make sure to call a professional for service.<\/p>\n High Heating Bills<\/strong>: Notice that your heating bills this winter seem a little high? This is because an HVAC system with poorly maintained ductwork can never reach its full potential. When your ductwork is leaking or clogged it becomes an uphill battle to reach your desired temperature because your system has to use more energy to provide the same amount of heat.<\/p>\n Hot or Cold Spots<\/strong>: When your ductwork is under capacity it creates hot and cold spots throughout your home. If you notice that you always seem to have a cool spot in your home this winter, even when the heater is running, it\u2019s more than likely that you have a problem with your ducts that\u2019s preventing the airflow in that space.<\/p>\n Foul Odors<\/strong>: Do you have a foul odor in your home any time you turn on your air conditioning or heater? Don\u2019t just sit back idly and try to get used to that smell. This is a clear sign that your HVAC system is struggling in some way and your ductwork could be a culprit if you haven\u2019t had it cleaned in a while. An excess amount of moisture built up within your ductwork is a symptom that leads to foul odor.<\/p>\n Make sure that your ductwork isn’t hindering your heating system this winter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[76],"tags":[143,87,89],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=776"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":779,"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776\/revisions\/779"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=776"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=776"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aircreations.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=776"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Understanding Your Ductwork<\/h2>\n
