Duct Repair and Replacement in Livingston, MT
Most homes have ducts contained in the walls, ceilings, and in closed-off spots of the house. Without ducts, a central heating and air system cannot run. But homeowners rarely give much consideration to this vital part of their HVAC systems, which makes sense because they cannot see most of it. Bad ductwork—damaged, leaking, or poorly installed—can create numerous problems for any HVAC system, however. It requires professionals to handle any necessary repairs or replacements.

The Consequences of Bad Ducts
"What can go so wrong if my ducts have some leaks?" Homeowners often ask this question and related ones. We can answer it easily: plenty can go wrong. You’d like more details, of course:
- Energy waste: The number one problem damaged or leaky ducts create for a home is a spike in energy costs. Ducts allowing air to escape can mean up to 30% of the air moving through the ventilation system ends up leaking out. And this means money going to waste, heating and cooling air that never reaches the rooms.
- Damage to the heating and AC system: A furnace, air conditioner, or any other comfort system is at a higher risk of repair needs with an inefficient duct system leaking air or placing more pressure on the system. More repair needs tend to also turn into an early system replacement.
- Poor indoor air quality: Yes, air leaks can allow dust, dirt, and even mold into the ventilation system. But it also creates general air circulation troubles and poor humidity balance. Healthy ducts are part of good indoor air quality.
The Professionals on the Duct Repair and Replacement Job
Have you ever heard of this tool called duct tape? Okay, now forget about duct tape. It’s misnamed and not useful for doing duct repairs of any kind because temperature changes rapidly turn it brittle and weaken its adhesive. Repairs for ducts must come from a skilled professional who has the right tools, such as duct testing equipment, manometers, mastic sealant, and metallic tapes. When you suspect bad ducts lurking behind your HVAC and air quality troubles, call only experts for repairs.
