Experts In Ductwork Replacement
Did you know that ductwork can make or break your home’s HVAC system?
When you think of HVAC, the first thing that comes to mind is probably the heating and cooling equipment. For example, the A/C, heat pump, or furnace. But for this equipment to operate properly, the air duct system has to be designed and installed correctly.
Unfortunately, most of the ductwork is hidden in the attic or behind walls, so it tends to fall into the “out of sight, of mind” category.
The problem is that 9 out of 10 HVAC performance issues are due to flaws in ductwork design and installation. In order to enhance indoor comfort, save money on energy bills, and reduce the risk of future HVAC problems, a professionally designed and installed air duct system can not be overlooked.

Frequently Asked Questions
What We Can Do For You!
Are Linear Diffusers More Expensive Than The Traditional Types Of Registers?
Unfortunately, as attractive as linear diffusers are, they require a significantly larger investment. Typically, one linear 60”x1.5” flush mount linear diffuser will cost about $500-$600 if installed during rough-in construction (no drywall installed).
Call us at (714) 332-6302 for more information.
Can Linear Diffusers Be Installed In A Finished Home?
Linear diffusers can be installed in a finished home, but they are often not a practical option due to the extensive framing required to secure the plenums & diffusers properly. Space restrictions also come into play.
There are many other attractive alternatives to linear diffusers.

Why Is It important To Seal The Air Ducts In My Home?
Leaky air ducts waste a lot of energy and make homes uncomfortable.
Call us today at (714) 332-6302 for more information and urgent requests.
Why Is There Such A Big Cost Difference Between Duct Installation Estimates?
Comparing “apples to apples,” you will find that duct installation estimates permitted by the city and provided by licensed contractors will not vary a lot.
The differences in estimates start to show when:
- Contractors are not licensed and perform the work illegally. This allows them to cut corners and use non-compliant materials that the permitting contractor can not.
- Projects are not permitted.
- Poorly designed and undersized air duct systems have a significantly shorter installation time and lower associated material costs.
- No warranty on installation.
These poorly performing systems will cost the client far more in the long run due to premature failure, poor comfort, and wasted energy from leaks and undersizing.
Call us at (714) 332-6302 for more information.
How Does A Duct System Work?
Just like our veins and arteries, a duct system acts like a conveyor system that supplies and returns the conditioned air to make your home comfortable.
Call us at (714) 332-6302 for more information.
Why Do My Ducts Need To Be Sized Correctly?
- Undersized ducts cannot move enough conditioned air to make the home comfortable. They also waste a tremendous amount of energy by forcing the air conditioner and furnace to run longer.
- Oversized ducts create temperature imbalances in homes, causing the home to be uncomfortable.
How Often Do My Ducts Need To Be Replaced?
- The service life of an air duct system is about 15 years as long as no other deficiencies exist that could cause premature failure or performance issues.
What Type Of Ducts Is Best For Homes?
- For attic & in-wall installations, the R-8 Flex duct is usually the best choice.
- For subfloor and other climate exposed applications, we prefer to use hard-duct or semi-rigid ducts.
Rodents Have Eaten Holes Into My Ducts; Can They Be Repaired?
Unfortunately, once rodents enter into flex-type air ducts, they cannot be repaired and need to be replaced. Here are the reasons:
- Rodents carry viruses that can spread through your home when released into the airflow and make the occupants sick.
- Flex ducts have crevices that cannot be cleaned or sanitized effectively.
Call us at (714) 332-6302 for more information.
How Can I Tell If Rodents Have Eaten Into My Air Ducts?
One way to tell if rodents have penetrated the inner core of a flex duct system is by checking to see if any of the duct insulation is stuck behind the supply registers. The insulation is usually pink or white and very noticeable behind the vent cover.
If you suspect rodent damage, stop using your HVAC system until we can assess it. You need to avoid getting exposed to possible viruses and fiberglass particles that can damage the lungs.
