Air Duct Sealing Benefits

 Hi, my name is Daryle Wattson and I wanted to touch bases on the subject of air duct sealing. Air duct sealing is the process of ensuring all ductwork is physically without  air leaks resulting in optimal airflow through all supply ducts.Air duct sealing should be performed by an experienced  HVAC technician.

 An example of a home that may need air duct sealing is as follows:

•  Rooms experiencing low to no airflow
•  Colder than normal rooms[in heating mode]
•  Warmer than normal rooms[in cooling mode]
•  Old ductwork
•  New System Installation
•  Low CFM

  The benefits of air duct sealing can be apparent through lowered energy bills due to the cooling or heating of an area quicker.  Since properly sealed air ducts do not allow air to leak the conditioned air will be directed into the spaces that are in need of cooled or heated air. Proper air duct sealing increases the airflow to the space, which increases the CFM causing the room to be conditioned faster and more efficient. Sealing old ductwork will help reduce air leaks and improve system efficiency, which will reduce energy bills on a monthly basis  saving the homeowner money.

 Replacing old ductwork and improving the R-value of the insulation will greatly improve the system's efficiency. By improving the R-value of the insulation around your ductwork ensures the conditioned air stays at the conditioned temperature longer as it travels through the ductwork. An example of a poor R-value insulated duct is one were the 70 degree conditioned air has cooled as it travels through the poorly insulated duct. A homeowner does not want this, the homeowner wants the conditioned air to stay as close to the desired  temperature as possible resulting in a properly operating duct system.

Should I Clean My Dryer Vent Myself or Have a Professional do it?

Hello, my name is Daryle Wattson and I have been in the  HVAC industry for over 10 years. On the Internet I have read many question and answer articles about how to clean dryer vents and if a homeowner should clean their own dryer vent and how. In this post I will give you an example of someone with no experience cleaning their own dryer vent, okay. In addition, I will give you information on why a professional may be a better choice when cleaning a dryer vent.

 A homeowner decided to clean her own dryer vent because she was having issues with the clothes drying. It seemed that it was taking the clothes more than one cycle to dry. After reading a couple of articles online about dryer vent cleaning the homeowner decided to take matters into her own hands. The homeowner headed onto the roof with a metal pipe in hand and unscrewed the dryer vent cap. This so-called informed homeowner takes the pipe and shoves it down the dryer vent duct several times. Thinking that the duct is clean the homeowner resumes her wonderful life. A few months pass and the homeowner goes into the attic to store some boxes left over from the holidays. Once in the attic the homeowner turns on the light and discovers lint and moisture has been escaping into her attic from a broken dryer vent pipe. The homeowner now has to call a professional to repair and properly clean the dryer vent because she had only read a few articles online about dryer vent cleaning.

 Believe it or not the short story I told you was not a story but true fact. This is happening all over the country due to people not having proper training on dryer vent duct code, installation, and proper cleaning techniques. The benefits of having a professional clean your dryer vent may save you money in the long term. Shoving a pipe down the dryer duct is not the proper way to clean a dryer vent so having a professional inspect, clean, and test your dryer vent is the way to go. For little over $100 you can have a professional come to your home and do all the things that I just mentioned. The peace of mind that a professional offers should be worth the hundred dollars. Knowing your home is safe from dryer fires and condensation damage brings me to one conclusion. Having a professional clean your dryer vent at least once a year to ensure your home is safe from potential hidden dangers such as lint buildup resulting from lack of maintenance is key.

Your duct system is comprised of pathways, these pathways provide a way for conditioned air to be delivered into your home. Your air ducts can be made of flex duct, sheet metal, or duct board.

A filter is usually placed before the blower motor. The filters responsible for filtering any debris that enters the return. When the filter is not filtering properly it can allow dirt, dust, and allergens into the system causing the blower motor to circulate the debris throughout the house.

Dryer Vent Cleaning..What To Consider When Looking For A Company.

When looking for a dryer vent cleaning company the homeowner has to take some things into consideration. For example, does the company have the training to accomplish the job. Second, does the dryer vent cleaning company have the right tools and do they have a good reputation. These examples are some of the things the homeowner should ask themselves when searching for a dryer vent cleaning company.

Dryer duct cleaning is a vital part of home maintenance and can be overlooked at times. Dryer vents are used to remove excess lint and moisture from your dryer. This is accomplished by the use of a sheet metal pipe exiting your dryer to the outside of your home. If this duct becomes blocked or broken problems will arise such as, clothes taking longer to dry and in some extreme cases dryer fires. Some examples of a blockage could be a freshly built birds nest or a dead animal lodged inside of the duct itself. Every year there are numerous homes that are badly damaged or burn down because of dryer duct issues. To prevent this from happening your dryer vent should be cleaned and inspected annually.

Dryer duct cleaning should be done by a professional with the training and tools to accomplish the job successfully without damaging the home. Some things to look for in a dryer vent cleaning company is reputation. As the homeowner check local reviews for dryer ventilation cleaning companies on Angie's list. A company with an A or B is a great choice and you can be confident the job will be done correctly. Additionally, pick a company that has a great price point that won't break the bank. Gathering estimates from the top three companies is usually a good way to go. Also, look for specials and discounts in places like Craigslist.com and Google to find the lowest price for the company of choice. Also ask the technician questions about the procedure and what you can do to help assist in the prevention of lint build-up inside the dryer vent.

Finally, dryers also should be inspected annually by an appliance repair specialist to help prevent unnecessary expenses like, burned out heating elements or shorted limit switches because of a clogged dryer exhaust vent. So seeking professional help will give peace of mind and assure that the dryer is in operational condition.

Summary:When looking for a dryer vent cleaning company the homeowner has to take some things into consideration. For example, does the company have the training to accomplish the job. Second, does the dryer vent cleaning company have the right tools and do they have a good reputation.
