Ductwork Repair in Shillington, PA

The usual suspects
Cloth-backed duct tape dries out and lets go, often within a few years, which is why proper sealing uses mastic or foil tape rated to UL 181. A great deal of what we re-seal in Shillington was taped originally.
Heating and cooling around Shillington
Around Shillington the fuel is usually natural gas, though propane turns up wherever the main stops short. What makes Berks County distinctive is the age of the buildings: stone farmhouses and pre-war homes that were designed around radiators and later had ductwork threaded through them.
Those retrofits are behind a lot of the comfort complaints we are called about — rooms that never settle, and a system blamed for duct problems.
A room everyone has given up on is worth one visit. We have found runs delivering air into a crawlspace for years while the room above was written off as impossible to heat.

Ductwork Repair in Shillington — questions
Do you cover Shillington for ductwork repair?
Yes. Shillington in Berks County is inside our service area and the 19607 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.
How much do leaky ducts actually cost?
Enough to matter, especially where runs pass through an unconditioned basement, crawlspace or attic. You are paying to condition space you do not live in.
Can I just close vents in rooms I do not use?
Better not to. It raises static pressure, pushes more air out through leaks, can trip furnace limit switches and can freeze a cooling coil. Adjustments belong at the damper.
Why is one room always colder than the rest?
Most often a disconnected, crushed or undersized run, or a system that was never balanced. The fix is frequently simple, and people live with it for years assuming nothing can be done.
