Green Valley duct inspection essentials
- Leak detection — locating gaps and disconnections that let conditioned air escape into attics or crawlspaces.
- Airflow measurement — testing static pressure and register output to find restrictions.
- Connection integrity — checking joints, tape, and mastic for deterioration from heat cycling.
- Insulation review — verifying duct insulation condition in unconditioned spaces.
- Return sizing check — confirming return air pathways are adequate for your system capacity.
What drives duct inspection needs in Green Valley
- Extreme attic temperatures (150°F+) that degrade duct tape and flex connections over time
- Desert dust infiltrating ductwork through gaps, reducing air quality and airflow
- Older homes with original ductwork that may not meet current sizing standards
- Uneven room temperatures that signal hidden leaks or crushed duct runs
- Rising energy bills despite consistent thermostat settings
When to schedule a duct inspection in Green Valley
- Before summer to catch leaks that waste cooled air into unconditioned spaces.
- After any HVAC replacement — new equipment needs properly sized, sealed ductwork.
- If rooms feel stuffy, humid, or noticeably warmer than others.
- When energy bills climb without a clear cause.
- Every 3–5 years as part of routine home maintenance in the desert climate.

Common Questions About Duct Inspections in Green Valley
How do I know if my ducts need inspection in Green Valley?
Uneven temperatures between rooms, excessive dust on registers, higher-than-normal energy bills, and HVAC systems that run constantly are all signs. If your ductwork is more than 10 years old and has never been inspected, it’s worth checking.
How long does a duct inspection take?
Most inspections take 60–90 minutes depending on home size and attic access. We test airflow, check connections, and photograph findings so you have a clear picture of duct condition.
Can duct problems actually raise my energy bill?
Yes. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that leaky ducts can waste 20–30% of the air your system produces. In Green Valley’s extreme heat, that translates directly to higher cooling costs.
What happens if you find problems during the inspection?
We provide a written summary with photos, prioritized recommendations, and upfront pricing for any repairs or sealing work. You decide what to address — no surprises.
Do you offer duct sealing and repair too?
Yes. If the inspection reveals leaks, loose connections, or damaged sections, we can often complete sealing work the same day or schedule follow-up repairs quickly.
