Your energy bills are higher than they should be for the amount of heating and cooling your home requires in New Hyde Park. Certain rooms will not reach the right temperature regardless of how long the HVAC runs in New Hyde Park, NY. You have had the equipment checked and it is working correctly in New Hyde Park. 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 New Hyde Park, NY. 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 New Hyde Park.
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 New Hyde Park, NY. The Department of Energy estimates that typical residential duct systems lose 20 to 30 percent of conditioned air through leakage in New Hyde Park. 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 New Hyde Park, NY.

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 New Hyde Park. A supply duct carrying cold conditioned air through a 130-degree summer attic cycles through extreme temperatures with every cooling cycle in New Hyde Park, NY. Standard duct tape adhesive is not formulated for this cycling and fails within a few seasons in New Hyde Park. Mastic sealant remains flexible after curing and maintains its seal through years of thermal cycling in New Hyde Park, NY. UL 181-rated foil tape maintains adhesion for 20 years or more in normal duct system conditions in New Hyde Park.
Every connection between duct sections is a potential leak point in New Hyde Park, NY. In most residential installations, these joints were mechanically fastened without sealant during installation in New Hyde Park. 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 New Hyde Park, NY.
Branch takeoffs split conditioned air from the main trunk line into the individual branch runs serving each room in New Hyde Park. They have multiple edges and angles that create significant potential leak area if not correctly sealed in New Hyde Park, NY. Branch takeoff leaks are among the largest individual leak points in typical residential duct systems in New Hyde Park.
The register boot connects the branch duct run to the wall, ceiling, or floor opening where the supply register mounts in New Hyde Park, NY. 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 New Hyde Park. Conditioned air escaping at the boot level leaks into the wall or ceiling cavity rather than through the register into the room in New Hyde Park, NY.
Systems sealed with standard duct tape develop leakage as the tape dries, cracks, and loses adhesion from temperature cycling in New Hyde Park. Standard duct tape on duct joints typically fails within three to five seasons of thermal cycling in New Hyde Park, NY. Joints that were sealed with standard tape appear sealed when first applied and are open to leakage again within a few years in New Hyde Park.
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 New Hyde Park. The conditioned air that leaks out before reaching the register does not reach the room in New Hyde Park, NY. Rooms at the end of long duct runs with multiple leak points along the way receive the cumulative effect of all those leaks in New Hyde Park. 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 New Hyde Park, NY.
Return duct leaks draw air from the surrounding unconditioned space into the return airstream in New Hyde Park. A return duct leak in an attic draws hot, dusty attic air into the air handler in summer in New Hyde Park, NY. A return duct leak in a crawl space draws crawl space air including moisture, mold spores, and soil particulate into the system in New Hyde Park. This unconditioned air bypasses the filter and is distributed throughout the home in New Hyde Park, NY.
MBM Air Duct Cleaning performs a duct pressure test before any sealing begins in New Hyde Park, NY. A calibrated fan is connected to the duct system and pressurized to a standard test pressure in New Hyde Park. The measured airflow represents the total leakage rate and provides the baseline for comparing with the post-sealing result in New Hyde Park, NY.
