Duct Check Before Every Install
We inspect duct runs and check for leaks before we quote a new furnace. Leaky ducts waste 20 to 30 percent of the heat you pay for. We find that before you spend money on a new unit.

Why El Dorado Hills Homes Need a Duct Check First
Ducts that run through unconditioned attic space or across long distances lose air to leaks. Energy studies show duct leakage can waste 20 to 30 percent of heating output. In a large El Dorado Hills home on a ridge, that loss can be even higher. We seal ducts and check sizing as part of every replacement job.
El Dorado Hills also has a local wildfire smoke risk in late summer. A furnace with a well-sealed duct system filters better and keeps smoke out of living areas more effectively. We note duct seal quality at every estimate and give you options to address it at the same time as the furnace swap.
