Seal small duct leaks with HVAC mastic or UL-181 foil tape after cleaning the joint; avoid cloth duct tape. In Denver and Thornton homes, this simple fix can improve airflow and comfort. For large tears or collapsed sections, schedule professional repair or replacement.
- Find leaks with smoke or feel for air while system runs.
- Clean and dry metal or flex duct surface.
- Brush on mastic or apply UL-181 foil tape to seams.
- Recheck airflow; insulate sealed sections.
Regular maintenance catches hidden duct issues early; same-day service is available.
