Your energy bills are higher than they should be for the amount of heating and cooling your home requires in Holloman Afb. Certain rooms will not reach the right temperature regardless of how long the HVAC runs in Holloman Afb, NM. You have had the equipment checked and it is working correctly in Holloman Afb. If the equipment is fine but the home is not comfortable and the bills are high, the problem is almost certainly in the distribution system in Holloman Afb, NM. Specifically, in duct leaks that are allowing conditioned air to escape into unconditioned attic or crawl space before it reaches the rooms you are paying to heat and cool in Holloman Afb.
Duct leakage happens at every unsealed joint between duct sections, at every branch takeoff from the trunk line, at every register boot connection in the walls and ceilings, and at the connections where the duct system meets the air handler in Holloman Afb, NM. The Department of Energy estimates that typical residential duct systems lose 20 to 30 percent of conditioned air through leakage in Holloman Afb. For a home spending $200 per month on heating and cooling, that is $40 to $60 per month escaping through duct leaks to the attic or crawl space in Holloman Afb, NM.

Standard duct tape uses a rubber-based adhesive that performs at room temperature but dries and loses adhesion when repeatedly exposed to the temperature extremes that duct systems experience during HVAC operation in Holloman Afb. A supply duct carrying cold conditioned air through a 130-degree summer attic cycles through extreme temperatures with every cooling cycle in Holloman Afb, NM. Standard duct tape adhesive is not formulated for this cycling and fails within a few seasons in Holloman Afb. Mastic sealant remains flexible after curing and maintains its seal through years of thermal cycling in Holloman Afb, NM. UL 181-rated foil tape maintains adhesion for 20 years or more in normal duct system conditions in Holloman Afb.
Every connection between duct sections is a potential leak point in Holloman Afb, NM. In most residential installations, these joints were mechanically fastened without sealant during installation in Holloman Afb. Over years of thermal cycling that expands and contracts the ductwork with every HVAC cycle, even joints that were initially sealed with standard duct tape have failed as the tape dried and lost adhesion in Holloman Afb, NM.
Branch takeoffs split conditioned air from the main trunk line into the individual branch runs serving each room in Holloman Afb. They have multiple edges and angles that create significant potential leak area if not correctly sealed in Holloman Afb, NM. Branch takeoff leaks are among the largest individual leak points in typical residential duct systems in Holloman Afb.
The register boot connects the branch duct run to the wall, ceiling, or floor opening where the supply register mounts in Holloman Afb, NM. The connection between the flexible duct and the boot collar and the connection between the boot and the surrounding framing are both common significant leak points in Holloman Afb. Conditioned air escaping at the boot level leaks into the wall or ceiling cavity rather than through the register into the room in Holloman Afb, NM.
Systems sealed with standard duct tape develop leakage as the tape dries, cracks, and loses adhesion from temperature cycling in Holloman Afb. Standard duct tape on duct joints typically fails within three to five seasons of thermal cycling in Holloman Afb, NM. Joints that were sealed with standard tape appear sealed when first applied and are open to leakage again within a few years in Holloman Afb.
Supply duct leakage between the trunk line and the registers means rooms furthest from the air handler receive less conditioned air than they were designed to receive in Holloman Afb. The conditioned air that leaks out before reaching the register does not reach the room in Holloman Afb, NM. Rooms at the end of long duct runs with multiple leak points along the way receive the cumulative effect of all those leaks in Holloman Afb. The room that is always too hot in summer and too cold in winter is often at the end of a duct run with multiple unsealed joints in Holloman Afb, NM.
Return duct leaks draw air from the surrounding unconditioned space into the return airstream in Holloman Afb. A return duct leak in an attic draws hot, dusty attic air into the air handler in summer in Holloman Afb, NM. A return duct leak in a crawl space draws crawl space air including moisture, mold spores, and soil particulate into the system in Holloman Afb. This unconditioned air bypasses the filter and is distributed throughout the home in Holloman Afb, NM.
MBM Air Duct Cleaning performs a duct pressure test before any sealing begins in Holloman Afb, NM. A calibrated fan is connected to the duct system and pressurized to a standard test pressure in Holloman Afb. The measured airflow represents the total leakage rate and provides the baseline for comparing with the post-sealing result in Holloman Afb, NM.
With the system pressurized, MBM technicians work through the accessible duct system to locate every specific leak point in Holloman Afb. Every branch takeoff. Every duct joint. Every register boot connection. Every plenum seam and air handler connection in Holloman Afb, NM. Every identified leak point is marked for sealing in Holloman Afb.
Mastic sealant for most duct joint and connection applications in Holloman Afb, NM. UL 181-rated foil tape for specific sheet metal seam applications in Holloman Afb. The correct material for the specific application in Holloman Afb, NM.
MBM systematically seals every identified leak point in the accessible duct system in Holloman Afb. Mastic applied at the correct thickness to cover the full joint gap and bond to the duct surfaces on both sides in Holloman Afb, NM. Every identified leak point addressed before the post-sealing pressure test in Holloman Afb.
After all identified leak points are sealed, MBM repeats the pressure test to measure the post-sealing leakage rate in Holloman Afb, NM. The before and after measurements quantify the leakage reduction achieved by the sealing in Holloman Afb. Documented evidence of the result provided to the homeowner in Holloman Afb, NM.
Mastic is a water-based sealant specifically formulated for duct system applications in Holloman Afb, NM. It remains flexible after curing, maintaining its seal through the thermal cycling that duct systems experience in Holloman Afb. It does not dry out, crack, or lose adhesion from temperature cycling the way standard duct tape does in Holloman Afb, NM.
UL 181-rated foil tape is tested and rated specifically for HVAC duct applications in Holloman Afb. Unlike standard duct tape, it maintains its adhesion through the temperature cycling of duct system operation in Holloman Afb, NM. Appropriate for specific sheet metal seam applications in Holloman Afb.
Standard silver duct tape is not rated for duct system applications in Holloman Afb, NM. Its rubber-based adhesive dries and loses adhesion from temperature cycling in Holloman Afb. MBM Air Duct Cleaning never uses standard duct tape for duct sealing work in Holloman Afb, NM.
MBM performs pressure testing before and after every duct sealing service in Holloman Afb, NM. The before and after measurements document the leakage reduction achieved in Holloman Afb. Documented improvement, not assumed improvement in Holloman Afb, NM.
