How Often Should I Have My Air Ducts Inspected And Sealed?

How Often To Inspect And Seal Your Air Ducts

Air duct systems don’t need constant attention, but regular inspections are important to keep your HVAC system running efficiently.

Most homes should have their ductwork inspected every 2 to 3 years. However, you may need an inspection sooner if you notice signs of problems.

Signs your ducts may need attention:

• Uneven temperatures between rooms
• Higher energy bills without increased usage
• Excess dust or poor indoor air quality
• Weak airflow from vents

Duct sealing is not typically done on a schedule. Instead, it’s recommended when leaks or inefficiencies are identified during an inspection.

In the Texas Hill Country, where ductwork is often exposed to extreme attic temperatures, leaks can develop over time and lead to significant energy loss.
