Home Energy Assessment & Air Duct Leakage Testing In Philadelphia, Aston, West Chester, Swarthmore, Springfield, PA, Wilmington DE, and Surrounding Areas
Home Energy Audits
Chances are, you know how old your air conditioner is. After all, the age was probably stated in the house listing, or you replaced it. But do you know how old your air ducts are?
Think of where your ducts are located and the stress they go through every day, whether exposure to extreme temperatures, high use, or age. What are the chances you have cracks and fissures leaking air and bringing undesirable air and contaminants into your home?
The further away your ducts need to bring air and the more compromised their condition, the more issues you’ll have. Air that is leaked into your ducts needs to be pushed through first. On the other hand, air originating from your HVAC system is lost on its way. This is the cause of rooms furthest from the HVAC system not getting to the desired temperature or noticing your system is constantly running. Call us to schedule air duct leakage testing to gain an understanding of what is your air ducts’ status and efficiency.

Air Duct Leakage Testing
At Advanced Air Service Group, we can perform air duct leakage testing at your home to assess the current status of your air ducts. Your air duct leakage testing may include any of the following:
Temperature checks of air distributed or areas far from the unit. By measuring the different temperatures, we can get an idea of any loss along the way.
Visual inspection of air ducts. If obtainable, we’ll try to do a visual inspection of your air ducts. Not only will this give us an insight into any compromised areas, but we’ll also get an assessment of the age and overall condition during the air duct leakage testing.
