Ductwork Problems

Diagnose the problem

The first step in repairing ductwork is to accurately diagnose the issue. This may involve using diagnostic tools, such as a duct blaster, to test the system and identify any issues.

Clean the ducts

If the ducts are dirty or covered in dust, it can block the airflow and cause problems with the system's performance. In this case, the technician will need to clean the ducts to remove any dirt or debris.

Repair or replace damaged ducts

If the problem is a minor issue, such as a small hole or a loose connection, the technician may be able to repair the ducts. If the problem is more serious, such as a large hole or a section of ductwork that has become disconnected, it may be necessary to replace the damaged ducts.

Test the system

Once the ductwork has been repaired or replaced, the technician will need to test it to ensure that it is working properly. This may involve running the system for a period of time and observing the airflow throughout the building.
