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.

Shout out to Phazie and Nikki ! These two arrived on time, ready to work. They were super efficient and professional, they explained the process and... how they were going to examine my homes AC system. Before they came my home was getting extremely hot, not cooling off until late in the night. They resealed my AC unit, zip tied all my vents and ductwork, also sealed the gaps on my plumbing. Now my home is staying cool throughout the entire day. These guys or life savers!read more

Couldn’t be happier with the work they did on my home. It started with a consultation, where the individual was extremely knowledgeable and... professional, discussed overall energy optimization for my 1900s shotgun home and what would be the best bang for my buck given my specific home and problems. Really took a wholistic approach to energy efficiency rather than just giving 1 solution. After discussion and some quotes, we ultimately ended up with spray foam insulation in the attic and beneath the floors. I asked a lot of questions and all were answered quickly. The work was scheduled and completely relatively on time with minimal impact to my work schedule (much of it was able to be done without me being present). Upon initial inspection they were not happy with their own work (although i could not tell the difference) and redid a portion on their own dime. The commitment to quality work over getting it done quickly was something i was not used to seeing from contractors, and showed a great deal of ownership and pride in their work. Finally some minor damage was done as they completed and it was addressed quickly and at no cost to me. Overall highly recommend and the final product as exactly what i was looking for, as my home is much cooler and ready for a hot summer.read more

Nikki and her crew did an excellent job attending to my home energy needs. From the beginning, Nikki was very communicative letting me know exactly... what time the crew would arrive. They were very attentive to details, and made sure to keep me informed of everything that was going on throughout their work. They were even so kind as to let me know I had a roof leak, 😔, and notified me of it's location. They were mindful of my home and made sure not to disturb anything and even offered to help vacuum the house when they were done! They were also very aware, and kind, to my pup while going in and out the house, as he likes to dart around. Nikki made sure my gate and front door were always closed! (For those that have pets home while workers are present know how important this is.) I have had quite a few groups of people work on my home over the years and I can tell when someone cares about their work and when someone doesn't. Nikki and her team really cared, and I felt like I got to know them during the time they were working on my home. What a great job! It was a wonderful, EASY experience to work with them!read more

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.
