Duct testing & sealing
Duct testing and sealing in Tucson. We test your ducts before we tell you they're leaking.
Leaky ductwork sends conditioned air into the attic instead of your rooms. We measure the leakage first, then seal it - including Aeroseal for runs we can't reach by hand.
Leaky ducts are a bill you don't see
A duct that's torn, disconnected, or just poorly sealed doesn't fail all at once - it quietly pushes cooled or heated air into the attic instead of your living room. You pay for that air twice: once to condition it, and again when the system runs longer trying to make up for what leaked out.
Attics in the Tucson area get brutally hot in summer and cold enough at night in winter to stress any duct run passing through them. We test the system before recommending anything, so you know exactly what's leaking and where - not a flat estimate based on the age of the house. That matters in older neighborhoods like Casas Adobes, where many homes date from the 1970s to the 1990s and the ductwork has had decades to wear. We offer duct testing in Casas Adobes and across the Tucson area.
What duct testing tells us
- How much conditioned air your ductwork is actually losing
- Where the leaks are, not just that they exist
- Whether sealing pays for itself or a smaller repair is enough
- How your ductwork is affecting the whole system's performance, not just one room
Duct sealing in Tucson: what gets sealed
A duct-leakage test tells us whether conditioned air is escaping and helps distinguish a disconnected run from smaller leaks at seams and joints. Accessible damage can be repaired by hand; Aeroseal duct sealing may help with smaller leaks in runs that cannot be reached. We measure before recommending either option and test after sealing to document the result. A before-and-after reading belongs to your home, not a generic savings promise. For dust problems, also check the filter and airflow options.
Our process
Testing & sealing process
01
Duct testing
We measure airflow and leakage at the system level before recommending anything, using the same testing standard we build into every installation.
02
Point-of-leak sealing
Where we can reach a duct by hand, we seal it directly - mastic, not tape that fails in a few years.
03
Aeroseal for the rest
For leaks inside walls or hard-to-reach runs, we use Aeroseal, a process that finds and seals small leaks from the inside of the ductwork without opening up the house.
04
Re-test to confirm
We test again after sealing so the improvement is measured, not assumed.
