Your duct system has a direct and significant effect on many things, to include:
  • Equipment size & efficiency of the system
  • Operating cost
  • Envelope infiltration (bringing in unwanted outside air)
  • Indoor air quality
  • Ambient noise & nuisance drafts
  • Occupant comfort (cold & hot rooms throughout your home)

Therefore, the duct system must be carefully designed and properly installed in order to maximize the benefits of an efficient duct layout and the associated heating/cooling equipment.

 A properly designed duct system will balance the 'correct airflow' to every room in your house. This will  minimize nuisance drafts, hot & cold rooms and will reduce duct/air noises when the system is on.
