In houses with forced-air heating and cooling systems, ducts are used to distribute conditioned air throughout the house. But in typical houses, about 25-40% of the air that moves through the duct system is lost due to leaks, holes and poorly connected ducts. The result is higher utility bills and difficulty keeping the house comfortable, no matter how the thermostat is set.
Sealing your ducts is the best way to achieve maximum efficiency from your equipment. Sealing and insulating your ducts increases system efficiency, lowers your energy bills, and can often pay for itself in energy savings. Plus, if you’re planning to install new heating and cooling equipment, a well-designed and sealed duct system may allow you to downsize to a smaller, less costly heating and cooling system that will provide better dehumidification.

of their time indoors on average where condidtions of some pollutants are often 2 to 5 times higher than typical outdoor concentrations.
"For an average home, leaky ducts can waste hundreds of dollars each year. Duct leaking also lowers the heating and cooling capacity, and it can lessen equipment life."

If you don’t already have a birdcage cover over the exit of your dryer vent it’s strongly recommended. Birds, bees and many other animals like the warmth of a dryer vent and like to make it home. Unfortunately, this clogs your line creating a lot of issues.
Marshall Cleaning Service can install a birdcase or vent cover to keep these animals away from your vent and keep your dry time short, leaving you more time to watch the birds rather than shoo them away!
"Since we had Aeroseal done at our home, our comfort level has improved exponentially! The dust in our home has also decreased and our utility bills have dropped! When we buy a new home, we will make sure to have Aeroseal done there too!"

"The duct sealing application has made a huge difference in the quality of our 1959 one floor home. The past week of frigid weather was a good test. The new thermostat has remained at 72 degrees during the low temperatures below zero. The whole house feels much more consistently warm in each room."
- Tom G.
"Before sealing our ducts. there was a temperature differential of 15 degrees between the basement and the second floor. We had to run a single room AC unit in our master bedroom to get it cool at night. But now, the biggest temperature difference has been within 3 degrees! No more room AC unit for us! We are big fans of the Aeroseal process and we have told all of our friends!"
