Your home's heating and cooling system works hard to keep you comfortable, and its hidden hero is the ductwork. Often out of sight and out of mind, damaged or inefficient ducts can quietly sabotage your comfort, inflate your energy bills, and even compromise your indoor air quality.
At IAQ Genie, we don't just make simple patch work fixes for your HVAC system; we get to the root of the problem. We offer comprehensive ductwork solutions to tackle a wide range of common issues, ensuring your system runs exactly as it should—efficiently, powerfully, and cleanly.
Many homeowners don't realize their ductwork is the culprit behind frustrating issues like:
Uneven Temperatures: You've got hot spots in one room and cold spots in another.
Sky-High Energy Bills: Your heating and cooling system is working overtime just to keep up.
Poor Air Quality: Your home feels dusty, or you're constantly battling allergens.
Noisy Vents: You hear whistling, banging, or excessive airflow sounds.
These problems often point to issues within your duct system that a simple filter change just won't fix.
We're equipped to diagnose and resolve all sorts of ductwork woes, bringing your heating and cooling system back to peak performance:
Repair and Replacement of Damaged Sheet Metal Ductwork
The Problem: Over time, sheet metal ducts can get bent, crushed, corroded, or even damaged during renovations or by pests. These gaps and holes let your expensively conditioned air leak out into attics or basements, and pull in dirty, unconditioned air. That means huge energy waste and compromised air quality.
Our Solution: Our expert technicians thoroughly inspect your existing duct work. We replace severely damaged sections and ensure proper sizing for optimal airflow. Every joint is properly fitted and securely sealed with high-quality materials. We make sure the air goes exactly where it's supposed to: into your living spaces, not wasted in your walls or attic.
Fixing and Replacing Leaking Flexible Ductwork
The Problem: Flexible ductwork, while versatile, can easily suffer from kinks, tears, or loose connections. These leaks are major energy bandits, letting conditioned air escape and drawing in unconditioned air. They can also sag, blocking airflow and becoming magnets for dust and debris.
Our Solution: We thoroughly inspect all your flexible duct runs for any damage or loose connections. For minor leaks, we apply durable repairs using specialized mastic sealants and reinforced tapes. If flex ducts are severely damaged, kinked, or just old & outdated, we'll recommend and perform a professional replacement with high-quality, insulated flex duct. Our installation methods ensure proper tensioning, secure connections, and fewer kinks, maximizing airflow efficiency.
Professional Duct Coating & Sealing for Ultimate Efficiency
The Problem: Even ductwork that looks okay can have tiny cracks, gaps, and loose connections. These small leaks add up to significant air loss—sometimes as much as 20-30% of your conditioned air! This means you're literally paying to heat or cool your attic or basement instead of your living room. Over time, internal duct surfaces can also accumulate dust, mold, and allergens.
Our Solution: IAQ Genie uses advanced techniques for internal duct coating and sealing. We apply specialized, non-toxic mastic sealants to your ductwork, effectively plugging all those leaks and cracks. For older, dirtier ducts, we can also apply an antimicrobial coating to help encapsulate dust and inhibit mold growth. This comprehensive sealing and coating process delivers:
Maximum Airflow: Every bit of conditioned air reaches its intended destination.
Reduced Energy Waste: You'll see lower utility bills because your system isn't losing precious air.
Improved Air Quality: Prevents outside contaminants from being pulled into your clean air stream.
Enhanced System Performance: Your heating and cooling system no longer has to overcompensate for leaks, allowing it to work less, last longer, and perform exactly as it was designed to.
At IAQ Genie, we believe your home's heating and cooling should be seamless, comfortable, and efficient. By expertly addressing issues within your ductwork, we ensure your entire system works together as a cohesive, high-performing unit.
