Read on to learn more about Aeroseal duct sealing by Hugee Corporation.

What Is Aeroseal Duct Sealing?

Aeroseal is a duct sealing technology made up of polymers and long molecules that bind together to improve the efficiency of your heating and cooling equipment. It is a dough-like compound that seals gaps, holes, misalignment’s, conduit openings, and protects your system from dust, moisture, drafts, and noise.

This material is non-toxic, non-corrosive, and non-staining. It uses synthetic nano-particles specially manufactured to fit together and create a way to block air from escaping, to make your ducts as airtight as possible. Take note that aeroseal duct sealing isn’t your typical DIY job. You need the help of professionals to get the work done.

How Does It Work?

Finding air leaks is no easy task. However, fixing them is, when you have the right tools and training. Aeroseal duct sealing works by following the natural flow of air through your ductwork. It looks for and seals cracks and leaks within the ducts—even the ones that are out of sight or those you can’t easily reach.

Preparation

For the preparation stage, our experts block and tape off all the vents and registers in your home with pieces of foam. We make sure that the machinery of your HVAC is sealed off to protect the heating and cooling components. Then, we create an alternative inflow for air and the Aeroseal. We perform a diagnostic pre-test to make sure all tools and materials are ready, so there won’t be any issues in the sealing process.

Sealing

When everything’s ready, the machine begins to blow an atomized polymer into the ductwork. The sealing particulates pass through your system until they exit at a leak, where they will stick to and work towards creating a seal.

Review

After the sealing process, our team members perform another analysis, showing you the results of the procedure—the before-and-after. This is when we can identify any leaks or crack that we missed. Once spotted, we immediately correct them.  

Why It’s Necessary?

The US Department of Energy has estimated that an average system loses around 30% of its total output to duct leaks. If you want to make your home more comfortable and your climate control more energy efficient, you will need to have those leaks sealed as soon as possible.

• Musty Smells and Odor
• Uncontrolled Humidity
• Excessively High Energy Bills
• Unwarranted Dust Buildup
• Unexpected Sound and Noise

How Long Will the Duct Sealant Last?

Accelerated testing conducted at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory resulted in showing no sign of deterioration in the Aeroseal seals – and it continued to seal much past the life span of tape and mastic. Some tests even show that its durability can last up for over 40 years, which exceeds all Underwriters Laboratories (UL) standard criteria for durability.
