The Connection Between Duct Sealing and Reduced Allergies

If you suffer from allergies, then you know that clean, allergen-free air inside your home is essential. You may not know, however, that your air quality could be diminished due to leaks in your air ducts. Lowe’s Air Duct Cleaning can help you resolve this little-known cause of contaminated indoor air with our Aeroseal duct sealing service. Let’s explore the connection between duct sealing and reducing allergy symptoms among members of your household. 

How Leaky Ducts Impact Indoor Air Quality

In a typical home, up to 40% of the air that blows from the furnace or air conditioner doesn’t even make it to the vents because it escapes through holes and cracks in air ducts. Unfortunately, that also means contaminants from attics, crawl spaces, and basements enter your system through those unintended openings. Your HVAC system recirculates air in your home several times daily, distributing dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, and other allergens into your living spaces.

The Benefits of Professional Duct Sealing

The solution to the problem of leaky air ducts is Aeroseal duct sealing, an advanced technology that stops leaks from the inside out. Once this is finished, your HVAC can run more efficiently and heat or cool each room in your home evenly. You will enjoy a more comfortable home and lower energy bills. Plus, with your ducts sealed, there won’t be air escaping from them or contaminated air entering into them.

Signs You May Need Duct Sealing in Your Home

Here are a few signs that your air ducts may need sealing. For example, if you notice your allergy symptoms worsening while inside your home, you may need to have your air ducts sealed. Likewise, if you notice an increased dust accumulation throughout your home or an unexplained increase in your monthly utility bills, that could also mean your air ducts are leaking and would benefit from being sealed.
