Putty sealant is often applied with a caulking gun or spatula, and can last up to 20 years. Aeroseal has a 10-year warranty and has undergone strength tests for 40 years in residential applications. Air duct seals are designed to last between 15 and 30 years. Duct seals should last at least as long as the rest of the duct system itself.
Unfortunately, many duct seals don't last as long as they should due to lack of proper preventive maintenance. To ensure that both your ducts and sealant last as long as possible, it is important to have Triple Service Inc professionally maintain your air ducts every year. Leaky return air ducts absorb dust and other pollutants from indoor air and send them to the central heating and cooling system, leading to inefficiencies that are reflected in your monthly utility bills. Aeroseal duct sealant is non-toxic and has been used in hospitals, surgical centers, and government institutions.
It has a ten-year warranty, but don't confuse it with the much longer lifespan of the sealant itself. The Aeroseal system will detect any obvious breaks in the ducts and determine the exact amount of leaks in the duct system. Many homes lose 30 to 40% or more of their air through leaking air ducts, so sealing them with Aeroseal technology can help improve the air supply capacity of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment. AIS offers exceptional air duct sealing services that ensure an improvement in the comfort of your home.
By sealing ducts, you can expect air to reach where it's designed and not to your basement, attic, or mezzanine. The best way to ensure that your ducts are operating at peak performance is to have them inspected and evaluated by a trained technician before sealing them with Aeroseal technology. Once everything is locked and the machine is connected, the oven is hermetically sealed to protect the heating and cooling components.
