Duct Testing

In addition to quantifying how leaky (or inefficient) a home’s HVAC ductwork is, Diversified Energy’s BPI-certified professionals can clean and seal a home’s ductwork as part of a comprehensive service plan to maximize energy efficiency, provide cleaner indoor air quality, and uncover any potential health/safety concerns.

DE analysts use a duct blaster to pressurize a building’s ductwork system in order to determine the amount and location of duct leakage.

Benefits Of Having Your Ductwork Tested

A duct blaster test is a diagnostic tool used to measure the airtightness of HVAC ductwork, which is the system of ducts that distribute conditioned air throughout a building. The test measures the amount of air that leaks out of the ductwork and into the surrounding building envelope.

The benefits of having HVAC ductwork tested using duct blaster diagnostic equipment include:

Improved energy efficiency: Leaks in HVAC ductwork can result in energy losses, as conditioned air is leaked out of the ducts and into the building envelope, reducing the overall energy efficiency of the HVAC system. By identifying and sealing leaks in HVAC ductwork, homeowners can improve energy efficiency and reduce energy costs.

Enhanced indoor air quality: Leaks in HVAC ductwork can result in the introduction of outdoor pollutants, such as mold, dust, and other allergens, into the indoor environment. By sealing leaks in HVAC ductwork, homeowners can improve indoor air quality and reduce the risk of respiratory problems and other health issues.

Increased comfort: Leaks in HVAC ductwork can result in temperature imbalances and drafts, leading to discomfort in a home. By sealing leaks in HVAC ductwork, homeowners can increase comfort levels and enjoy a more consistent indoor temperature.

Improved HVAC system performance: Leaks in HVAC ductwork can reduce the overall performance of the HVAC system, as conditioned air is leaked out of the ducts and into the building envelope. By sealing leaks in HVAC ductwork, homeowners can improve the performance of their HVAC system and ensure that it operates more effectively and efficiently.

Increased lifespan of HVAC system: Leaks in HVAC ductwork can cause moisture to enter the ducts, leading to corrosion and other issues that can shorten the lifespan of the HVAC system. By sealing leaks in HVAC ductwork, homeowners can increase the lifespan of their HVAC system and reduce the need for costly repairs and replacements.

Overall, having HVAC ductwork tested using duct blaster diagnostic equipment is a valuable tool for improving the energy efficiency, indoor air quality, comfort, performance, and lifespan of a home’s HVAC system. By identifying and sealing leaks in HVAC ductwork, homeowners can enjoy a healthier, more comfortable, and more energy-efficient living environment.

Jeff and his team were very informative and helped me to understand the way my AC and insulation were contributing to moisture issues I was having.... Through an educational approach, we addressed the most pressing issues and will re-evaluate progress over time. We added spray foam over a previous spray foam job that was inadequately done, corrected damaged duct work under my house with insulation, and replaced an oversized AC unit, all of which were contributing to excess moisture and wasted energy costs in my home.Jeff and team were also very friendly and professional, which was refreshing when I was being oversold and pressured by another company. I would certainly recommend Diversified Air to friends and family.read more

Diversified Energy, from its owner, Jeff Haag, to its team led by Nikki, were thorough, competent, professional, hard-working and cost-effective. We... had our attic ductwork sealed and then the entire attic floor insulated with blown-in cellulose fiber, covered completely by sheets of the cutting edge technology of QV Platinum PCM (Phase Change Material) [Diversified Energy is the sole provider of this technology in the metro area]. Our A/C system works less now, even with continuing heat. We recommend Diversified Energy for upgrading your home’s energy efficiency!!read more

Niki Aguillard and her crew came out to my house and did a fantastic job! They texted me what time they would arrive and they were on time. They made... sure every crack was sealed in my house and even put door sliders on the doors to keep the air from flowing in. They completely insulated the attic. They were very friendly and kind overall did an amazing job I’m very pleased with how they went over and beyond to ease every concern I had and I really appreciate their hard work. Would definitely recommend Diversified Energy “Plug into Comfort”read more

First off these are some friendly and professional people! They came in to our home and had nothing but respect and explained things in a way that... was more family/friend based than technical. BIG shout out to Mike and Ryan for the amazing help and work! They tested the house and did all the checks as well as made sure we had stuff in place. They hooked us up with a great light package that should help our energy use as well as lighting needs. Everything is top notch and amazing customer service!read more
