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

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

A sealing service that reduces leakage by 15 to 20 percentage points returns that proportional energy cost reduction on every subsequent energy bill in Spring Hill, KS. For a home spending $200 per month on heating and cooling, a 15 percent leakage reduction saves approximately $30 per month in Spring Hill. A sealing service costing $500 to $1,000 pays for itself in energy savings within 18 to 36 months in most cases in Spring Hill, KS. Every month after payback is net return on the investment in Spring Hill.
