Many homeowners often ask the question about how Aeroseal duct sealing works when they are getting quotes on air duct cleaning services. Your duct work might not be working to it’s maximum efficiency. Air ducts can have gaps and holes that leak air supplied by your hvac system, which can increase your energy costs throughout the year.
There are variety of reasons why people use the Aeroseal service. But mostly they fit into three categories.
Safety King blocks and tapes off all the grills and registers in the home. The Aeroseal machine is then hooked up to the duct work near the furnace. After everything is blocked, hooked up, the furnace is sealed off to protect heating and cooling components . The machine begins to blow an atomized polymer into the duct work. The sealing particulates go to the leakage points ( joints, seams, gaps) in the duct work and attach themselves to the edge of the opening and begin to build a seal.
Safety King is used as quality assurance tool for builders, not all builders require their contractors to seal the duct work. Those who have strong positions on conservation, energy efficiency and quality like to use the Aeroseal product. It is also clear that the home buying consumer is looking for an efficient home, so it gives them an edge right off the bat.
