Ductwork

Your home’s ductwork delivers warm and cool air from the HVAC unit through your vents. Its simple but essential functions ensure a constant flow of fresh, comfortable air reaches every room in your house. Sometimes, those ducts get dirty or damaged after years of operation. Let Ward Plumbing, Heating & Air service your ductwork to keep the air clean and conditioned.

What Happens When My Ductwork Falls Into Disrepair?

The network of ducts in your home snakes through the ceiling, walls, and floors. Thus, it collects dust, pollutants, and residue from these structures and constant airflow. Foreign objects can also end up inside the ducts for various reasons. These objects can damage or block airflow, which forces your HVAC system to push air harder.

When ducts fall into disrepair, they can produce weak or unclean airflow. Depending on the damage the ducts sustain, you might notice issues such as:

• More dust collecting on your vents or circulating throughout your house
• Vents emitting weak airflow
• Ventilation that produces bad or strange odors
• Sudden increases in your energy bills without explanation

Duct problems can also impact your indoor air quality. You may experience heightened allergy symptoms, such as a runny nose or cough. If you live with individuals who have compromised immune systems, allergies, or respiratory conditions, you might notice more frequent flare-ups with higher intensities.

While your air ducts main function is to deliver air into different rooms, the passage can also directly affect your family’s health and quality of life. Our ductwork services can remedy any issues you have with your ventilation network.

When Should I Repair Or Replace My Ductwork?

Since duct systems are hidden within your home’s structure, you can’t merely glance at them to ensure they stay intact. Their hidden location makes it difficult to gauge whether or not they have sustained significant damage. Still, you’ll probably pick up on a few tell-tale signs that something is wrong with your ducts.

• Your home is more susceptible to mold growth.
• Certain rooms feel more humid than usual.
• Some indoor areas feel warmer than others.
• The amount of dust in your home has greatly increased.

Damaged ducts make for serious discomfort. When your comfort levels decrease, call us for duct repair services in Sylva, NC and surrounding areas. Additionally, the Ward Plumbing, Heating, & Air team can provide your home with custom ductwork services.
