Leaks threaten the effectiveness of every heating and cooling system. Understanding the type of leakage is key to understanding how they impact HVAC system performance.
With HVAC equipment leaks, depending on where the equipment is located, these leaks can be inside or outside the thermal envelope. This can make the equipment work harder than needed to keep the home at a comfortable temperature.
Duct leakage can cause varying comfort, indoor air quality, and efficiency issues in homes. As a result, duct leakage is an often unnoticed contributor to callbacks from customers.
HVAC technicians usually carries required tools which has its own applicability and one of the most overlooked tools of the trade is duct tape and mastic sealants.
Heat and cold cycles over the years can lead to warped connections, seams, and splits, separate, or produce holes. These areas will let air out, causing your system to have to work harder or longer, raising your energy bill and lowering the efficiency of your system.
Instead of replacing the entire ductwork, it is more economical and faster to patch the hole with a proper taping or sealing method. HVAC ducting sealants work just as well (or in some cases better) than the material the duct is made from, which can maintain your warranty, lower your energy bills and raise your system efficiency.
One must consider certain features before buying a HVAC duct or sealant.
- Your tape needs to be able to handle the drastic temperature ranges.
- Thermal conductivity will allow you to use the tape in areas that go through temperature changes without swelling or constricting, maintaining the integrity of the repair.
- HVAC ducting can hold moisture and humidity. Tape that isn’t water resistant will wear, puncture or lose its adhesion fast.
