Answers to the Frequently Asked Questions about Aeroseal

One of the most recent innovations in the HVAC industry is aeroseal, a service that Air Pros proudly offers our customers. Aeroseal is very effective for sealing cracks and holes in ductwork. However, because it is a fairly new service, many people continue to have questions about this service. Below, we will provide the answers to a handful of the most pressing questions to help you understand the importance of Aeroseal Duct Sealing Services. 

Is Aeroseal Worth the Money?

Aeroseal can be a fairly costly investment, with an average cost of about $2,500-$3,200. Though the initial cost may seem high,over time, it will help you save money on your energy bills, AC repairs, and early replacements. Aeroseal effectively seals all the cracks and holes, allowing uninterrupted air flow through the ductwork. The AC compressor won’t need to work as hard to produce the needed temperatures in the house. Thus, your energy bills will decrease, and your AC won’t wear out as quickly. 

When thinking about cost per use, aeroseal is worth the investment because it will last up to 40 years. The durability and the long-term savings make aeroseal a very worthwhile investment. 

What is the Alternative to Aeroseal?

Although there isn’t anything quite like aeroseal, other alternative services are available for improving your ductwork. You can also explore services such as the following: 

Duct Replacement

When ductwork is in a poor enough condition, there is little left to do than just replace all of it. This is a very laborious and difficult job, requiring hours and even days to complete. Thus, it will most likely cost more than aeroseal duct sealing services. 

Traditional Duct Sealing

Duct sealing is traditionally done with mastic sealant or duct tape. It’s a time-consuming method that doesn’t guarantee leaks are sealed properly. In Aeroseal, a computerized system pinpoints cracks and holes, resulting in a successful and full-proof seal. 

Duct Insulation

It is possible to reduce energy loss and improve efficiency by insulating your ductwork. It is important to note, though, that this solution does not address leaks in the ductwork.

Duct Cleaning

If your HVAC system is clogged with debris, cleaning your ducts can improve airflow and efficiency. Though cleaning is important and necessary, it still won’t address the leaks present in the ducts. 

Is Aeroseal Safe to Breathe?

Aeroseal is made with a non-toxic, organic compound that is totally safe to breathe for both humans and animals. 

Should Ducts be Cleaned Before Aeroseal?

The answer to this question will depend on the condition of your ducts. The technician performing this service will assess your ductwork and let you know if cleaning is required. Typically, excessively dirty ductwork requires cleaning for an effective application. 

Can You Apply Aeroseal Yourself?

Even though it is possible to do anything at home by yourself, there are certain things that should be left to the professionals, especially when it comes to aerosealing. Here are the reasons why:

You Need Special Equipment

This service requires very specialized equipment like the computerized system and the tools used to spray the aeroseal. Few homeowners have this type of equipment because an HVAC license is required to purchase them. 

You Must Be Professionally Trained

Performing these services requires the expertise and knowledge of a professional technician. Properly applied aeroseal ensures that the sealant is evenly distributed throughout the ducts. There are also a handful of safety concerns when it comes to handling the equipment and the aeroseal itself. If the proper safety equipment and precautions are not used, there is a risk of exposure to the sealant and potential respiratory problems.
