When it comes to your home’s ductwork, it’s not a question of if it will need to be replaced but when. Just like any other part of your home, your ductwork is subject to wear and tear over time. And, while it may be tempting to put off replacing your ductwork, doing so can actually end up costing you more in the long run.
Here are the most common signs that it’s time to replace your ductwork.
Higher Energy Bills
If you’ve noticed a steady increase in your energy bills, it could be due to leaks in your ductwork. When air leaks out of your ducts, your HVAC system works harder to maintain comfort, which uses more power, causing your expenses to rise.
Hot & Cold Spots
Do you have certain rooms in your home that are always too hot or too cold? If so, it could be due to faulty ductwork. When ductwork is damaged or poorly installed, it can prevent air from flowing evenly throughout your home, leading to uneven temperatures.
Increased Dust
Have you noticed that you have more dust around the house than before? If so, it could be coming from your ductwork. Over time, dust and debris can build up in your ducts, eventually making their way into your house. Too much dust means more cleaning time and could be detrimental to your health.
Physical Damage
Damage like dents and punctures can interfere with your HVAC’s performance and cause energy loss. It’s wise to schedule regular air duct cleaning and inspection to assess the health of your ductwork.

It’s not always evident to the untrained eye that your air ducts are damaged or dirty because most people can’t see inside. Moreover, it’s common to think noisy ducts are part of your home’s character. However, damaged ducts can impede your air conditioner’s performance and spread harmful dust and debris throughout the house.
One of the most obvious signs you need professional ductwork repair is noisy ducts. Sometimes, strange sounds stem from a failing HVAC system, but in other cases, it could be damaged ducts that are the culprit. Running your air conditioner or furnace around the clock for weeks stresses the ducts and can cause them to become loose or damaged, especially if they were incorrectly installed.
Another problem to watch for is rodent or insect infestation. If animals like mice or rats get into the ducts, they leave behind dirt and particles that could make your family sick. There’s much debate on how often you should schedule air duct cleaning, but most experts say every three to five years is normal.
