To ensure optimal performance of your air conditioning system and the ability to live in the climate you prefer in your home, be sure to professionally seal the air ducts when necessary. Replacing air ducts is a complex and potentially dangerous job, so it's best to hire someone if you're not confident in your abilities. Without proper installation or maintenance of air ducts, heating and cooling ducts can begin to open gaps and leak over time. If you notice a change in the way air circulates or if your air conditioning systems have to stay on for long periods of time, you may need to clean the air ducts. To replace the air ducts yourself, you will need metal sheets, hooks and straps, ventilation covers, duct sealant, insulation and adhesive tape. The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends cleaning air ducts once every three to five years.
Cleaning the air ducts is important to keep them free from hair, skin and other debris so they can operate at peak performance all year round. While cleaning and repairing air ducts extend their lifespan, a major replacement is usually necessary every 15 years for them to function properly. Perforated or otherwise damaged air ducts will also allow contaminants to enter those ducts, which will then flow into the rooms of the house and into the air you breathe. In many states, it's illegal to replace air ducts unless you're an appropriately licensed HVAC contractor.
