Signs You Have Damaged Air Ducts
When your ducts work properly, they’re out of sight and out of mind. If your ductwork malfunctions, you need to be able to recognize signs that they require repairs, including:
- Kinks or visible damage
- Cracks or gaps
- Inefficient temperature control
- Poor indoor air quality
- Reduced airflow
If your heating and cooling systems operate as they should, your air ducts are likely the culprit of your issues.

Ductwork Sealing & Repair
At Comfort First, our experts have the tools and training to handle the most common ductwork issues, including:
- Leaks: When your heated or cooled air escapes through leaks in your ductwork before reaching the rooms in your home, you waste money and energy.
- Poor insulation: If your ducts aren’t properly insulated, you may experience heat gain or loss before heated or cooled air is distributed through your home.
- Unbalanced airflow: Sometimes, too much hot or cool air is delivered to one area of your home and too little to another. This could be due to poor ductwork configuration or a thermostat issue.
It’s important to remember that your ductwork’s efficiency and effectiveness directly impact your overall comfort. If you’re struggling to get your home to the perfect temperature or notice hot or cold spots, it may not require heating or cooling repairs.
Trust our HVAC technicians to help you identify any issues with your ductwork and suggest the proper repairs.

How do I know if there are leaks in my ductwork?
Hold a thin piece of toilet paper to duct connections to see if it moves. You may even feel significant leaks with your hand.
If you determine the source of the leak, take note and show it to your HVAC technician. Otherwise, they can find the leak.
Can mold get in ductwork?
Yes, your ductwork is warm and moist, which is an ideal breeding ground for mold. The bacteria from this mold can then travel through the air and into your home.
UV lights can neutralize mold spores and prevent further spread.
