Ductwork Repair & Cleaning
Improve your home's air quality and your HVAC system's efficiency. We connect you with professionals for duct sealing, repair, and cleaning.
The Unseen Key to Home Comfort
Your home's ductwork is like its respiratory system, carrying heated and cooled air to every room. Leaky, dirty, or poorly designed ducts can lead to poor air quality, inefficient heating and cooling, and high energy bills. LocalXR connects you with HVAC specialists who can inspect, seal, repair, or clean your ductwork to improve your home's overall comfort and health.
Signs of Ductwork Problems
These issues often point to problems hidden behind your walls and ceilings.
High Energy Bills
Leaky ducts can lose up to 30% of the air that passes through them, forcing your HVAC system to work much harder.
Dusty Home
Leaky return ducts can pull dust, insulation, and other particles from your attic or crawlspace into your living area.
Uneven Temperatures
If some rooms are always too hot or too cold, it can be a sign of crushed, disconnected, or leaky ducts.
Poor Airflow
Weak airflow from your vents is a clear indicator of a blockage, leak, or design issue in your duct system.
When to Call a Professional
For safety and to prevent costly damage, most water heater issues require a licensed plumber. Call immediately if you suspect a gas leak (smell of rotten eggs). Otherwise, schedule a service for any of the signs listed above, especially for leaks or if you are not comfortable performing maintenance yourself.

Ductwork FAQs
How often should I get my ducts cleaned?
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA) recommends having your ducts inspected every few years and cleaned on an as-needed basis, such as after a renovation, if you have pets, or if you notice signs of excessive dust or mold.
Will duct sealing really save me money?
Yes. According to ENERGY STAR, sealing and insulating ducts can improve the efficiency of your heating and cooling system by as much as 20 percent — and sometimes more.
