One of the Most Forgotten Causes of Energy Inefficiency

As alluded to earlier, your air ducts are key to maintaining heating and cooling efficiency in your Buffalo Grove-area home. The average home loses a lot of the treated air that travels through it to holes in the ductwork. These same gaps also allow dust and other unwanted contaminants to get sucked into your home. Studies show that damaged or poorly designed ductwork can be the biggest cause of energy loss in the home. And, every time you look at your gas or electrical bill, you’re seeing the results.

If you’re looking to spend less on cooling and heating your home, you should give our Buffalo Grove-area HVAC company a call. While at your home, we’ll inspect your ducts for any signs of damage. Then, we’ll seal or insulate them. This will prevent most air loss. If the issue isn’t something that can be easily fixed, we may suggest new duct installation.

Symptoms of a Ductwork Problem in Buffalo Grove

It’s pretty apparent when your furnace or air conditioner needs repair. Your home is suddenly chilly or sweltering. The familiar hum of your unit has stopped, slowed, or fallen out of rhythm. The signs of a ductwork issue are often much more subtle.

  • High Utility Bills: If your ducts have major leaks and lose large amounts of air. This typically translates into huge spikes in heating and air conditioning bills—especially if your ductwork is run in your attic or crawlspace. So, instead of paying more for less comfort, call Master Mechanical for a ductwork inspection.
  • Rattling and Squeaking: Loose ductwork will rattle and squeak when your HVAC system turns on. As time passes, these noises will grow louder and more apparent. An HVAC company local to the Buffalo Grove area can often tighten these loose sections and make uninterrupted shuteye a little easier.
  • Pest Infestations: Holes in your ducting provide shelter for squirrels, rats, insects, and other pests. Signs of their presence include an increase in rodent droppings and the smell of urine or feces coming from your ductwork. Before getting the ducting repaired, however, you’ll want to call in a pest control expert.
  • Mildew or Mold: Where you find excess moisture, you’ll find mildew and mold. If you notice a moldy odor when you flip on your furnace or AC, you might have leaks in your return air ductwork or poorly insulated ducts. Breathing in these contaminants can lead to respiratory issues and exacerbate things like asthma.
  • Low Air Flow: The treated air from your HVAC system flows out any gaps or holes in your ductwork. This results in lowered air pressure and can turn the air coming from your vents to a trickle. If you notice hot or cold spots in your home in , give us a call to see if bad ductwork is to blame.

Proof We’re the Best HVAC Company Straight From Our Customers

  • Mini-Split Installation That Exceeded Expectations
    Gwen Anderson
    Jake is amazing! We reached out to get a quote for a mini-split system to cool our server room, and Jake exceeded our expectations. He recommended a more cost-effective solution that has provided us with incredible results. His out-of-the-box thinking and thoughtfulness are so impressive. I had six other HVAC companies provide quotes, but Jake was the only one who made sustainable and well-considered suggestions. The office staff is also super friendly and helpful!
  • Came Right on Time for Our
    Dominique Haffery
    We just had Master Mechanical service our AC units before it gets too hot! This way we know they are operating efficiently! I used to be scared to pay money for these things but it truly saves money in the long run! Master Mechanical was able to come out quickly, give me a shorter window then most companies do in this trade, came right on time, communicated the whole way! They are professional and experts at their craft! Highly recommend!!!
  • A Great Company for Complicated HVAC Problems
    Eric Williams
    Jake did an excellent job helping me solve a complex problem that no one else could help with - I needed a new thermostat installed for a unique 120V water chiller AC system, and all other HVAC companies refused to work on it. Jake was on time, friendly, informative, and had it done in less than an hour. Highly recommended!
  • Saved $1000 With a Second Opinion on AC Repair
    Kris
    I’m glad I called Master Mechanical for a second opinion. They saved me $1000 over the quote for the same repair from another HVAC company. They were professional on time and fixed my unit same day. They also weren’t pushing upsales. They did let me know my options, but unlike the other company, Master Mechanical didn’t try using scare tactics to get me to buy additional services. Master Mechanical will be my first choice going forward and I’ve already recommended their services to family members as well.
  • Repaired My Boiler Instead of Pushing an Unnecessary Replacement
    Kathleen Ferraro
    I am so grateful to Master Mechanical for repairing my old boiler. Danny Chee is very knowledgeable and was able to figure out the problems and repair them. Plus he is a very nice, polite person. He made sure everything was working correctly before leaving, even after 5:00. The people on the phone, Paul and a woman whose name I can't recall, are professional and helpful. I received texts and emails confirming appointments and letting me know when Danny was on his way. They could have sold me a new boiler but instead fixed the old one at a fraction of the cost. I highly recommend them and will continue to rely on them in the future.
