What is Aeroseal?

Aeroseal is a patented breakthrough technology. Software allows a technician to measure how much air is leaking out of the ducts of your home or business. It also locates these leaks. Then, the process puts that escaping air under pressure. Your technician will inject a polymer into the system, where it will first seal to the edges of the leak. Then, the particles will seal to each other until the leak is closed.

Aeroseal allows you to seal air duct leaks that could be costing you money and comfort.

What are the benefits of installing Aeroseal?

Installing Aeroseal can help you in several ways:

  1. You’ll save money because you won’t be wasting it heating or cooling air that only escapes your ducts.
  2. You’ll be more comfortable because the hot or cold air will be more evenly distributed throughout your home.
  3. Your air quality will improve because dust, humidity, and fumes will no longer be able to enter through the holes in your ducts.
  4. You won’t have to dismantle your home and all your ductwork to fix your leaks.

How much will Aeroseal save me in energy costs?

Exact savings are difficult to calculate because they depend a lot on your home’s design, it’s current condition, the age of your heating and cooling systems, and more.

In residential buildings, Aeroseal has been stress-tested and found to last up to 40 years. It is guaranteed to seal your ducts for 10 years after installation.

Will my house smell after Aeroseal is installed?

During the Aeroseal installation process, your house may smell vaguely of something similar to Elmer’s glue. This will dissipate by the next morning, though it is usually undetectable long before that.

Can Aeroseal reduce the amount of dust in my home?

Ducts tend to run through dusty places, like basements, crawl spaces, attics, and more. When your ducts leak, they can pull in both air and dust through the holes. Once it’s in the ductwork, yoru heating and cooling system then spreads this dust around your building. Since Aeroseal seals your ducts, it can drastically reduce the amount of dust in your system.

How big of a leak can Aeroseal seal?

Aeroseal can seal holes up to 5/8th of an inch across. Any leaks or holes larger than that will need repair before the Aeroseal process is completed. If we find any large, hidden leaks or holes during the Aeroseal process, we’ll stop until we can work with you to figure out another solution.

Can Aeroseal fix my hot and cold rooms?

When your ducts are sealed properly, your hot and cold air will go where you want it to go: into the occupied spaces in your building. It won’t escape into the attic, the crawl space, or even outside. This helps distribute the air properly and reduces the number of hot and cold spaces or rooms.
