Air Ducts
June 19, 2017

It’s no secret that the temperatures in Austin and Pflugerville have been through the roof recently, and the height of summer is still yet to come! If you’re having a difficult time cooling your home down, rest assured that you’re not alone. For those with central air, the problem may have quite a lot to do with leaky ductwork, which can drastically affect indoor comfort and create inconsistent temperatures throughout the home. The answer? Seal those ducts!

If you’re unsure as to whether or not your home may be in need of duct sealing, it all starts by bringing in a professional from Hill Country Insulation to survey the situation. If your ducts are obviously leaking, however, here are a few reasons why it’s time to solve the problem once and for all.

Prevent Summer AC Breakdown

If you think it’s been hot lately, just wait until we get further down the road into the heat of summer. There’s no getting around the fact that your AC is going to have to work a bit harder than usual to keep up, and if your ductwork isn’t performing properly, it will have to work even harder to keep the home cool. This means a strong potential for breakdown to occur, and since emergency service can be expensive, you don’t ever want this to be a possibility.

Maintain a Comfortable Home Environment

With temperatures climbing toward the triple digits almost every day, few things are going to matter more this summer than keeping your home cool and comfortable. Maintaining a comfortable home environment can only be done if your ductwork is free of leaks, as otherwise, your AC will never be able to cool the room the way it’s supposed to. Leaky ducts? Expect discomfort when the sun beats down—unless you seal them up.

Improved Indoor Air Quality

What could be quite as important as the air which you and your family breathe throughout the day and night? At Hill Country Insulation, we place a great deal of focus on improving indoor air quality, and leaky ductwork can spread a great deal of different types of contaminants around your home if you’re not careful. Especially important in homes where residents suffer from allergies and asthma, duct sealing can put an end to this problem for good.
