More often than not, the air ducts in our Idaho homes are one of the most neglected areas in our heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems.
Out of sight, out of mind. Hidden behind the walls and ceilings of your Meridian, ID, home, air ducts, or ductwork, play a vital role in your indoor air quality (IAQ) by circulating conditioned air from your air conditioner (AC), furnace, and heat pump. In many ways, air ducts are the lungs of a home.
Neglected ductwork can circulate dust, bacteria, mold, and dirt along with the heated and cooled air throughout your home. Improperly installed or sealed air ducts force your HVAC system to work harder, and that may cost you more money in energy bills.
At Quality Heating & Cooling, our team takes your indoor air quality very seriously, which means doing our best to maintain your air ducts. These ducts deliver the air you breathe every day in your home.
Duct Sealing
One way dust and debris enter your Idaho home’s ductwork is through cracks and holes in the system. Heated and cooled air can leak out of your air ducts using that same route. If neglected, those unsealed connections and holes will compromise the air quality in your home and cause energy loss that can translate into higher utility bills.
Duct Testing
Our experts at Quality Heating & Cooling can pinpoint leaks with special equipment that pressurizes your ductwork and calculates air loss. Through our testing, we can also point out air leakage in other areas of your home, such as leaks coming from your windows and doors.
Testing helps determine if sealing and repair are the best approaches or if duct replacement is a better solution. Either way, our experts will provide a detailed work plan with an accurate cost estimate, so you understand the process every step of the way.
Air Duct Installation and Replacement
Whether you are remodeling your historic home or planning to add an addition to your Meridian, ID, home and need to extend your air ducts, you can trust our knowledgeable professionals at Quality Heating & Cooling to get the job done right.
We know how to avoid the long runs and sharp bends in your ductwork that could restrict the airflow. Our team will accurately measure the number of vents necessary to get the best performance from your system. We work with all types of ductwork, and our licensed specialists only use industry-approved tools and equipment.
Here are a few signs it might be time to replace your air ducts:
- Age—Reliable and well-maintained air ducts operate at optimal efficiency between 15 and 20 years. After that, leaks, tears, and loose joints allow air to escape and contaminants to infiltrate your system.
- Noises—Rattling noises in your air ducts usually indicate a loose part or tear. Those noises are a warning sign that your ductwork needs service.
- Energy bills—If you notice your energy bills continuously increasing, replacing your faulty air ducts could make a significant difference.
- Temperature issues—If you notice hot and cold spots throughout different parts of your Meridian, ID, home, it could mean there’s an issue with your airflow.
Always keep in mind we offer financing (subject to approved credit) to help when it comes time to replace your air ducts. When working with us, we want to make things as easy as possible for you. Talk to one of our team members for more information.

“We called 5 HVAC companies to provide bids. Quality’s team and Jay were best prepared with analysis for presenting the options. Other Quality HVAC workers were also asked for onsite evaluation . Lots of different system options and foreseen problems were discussed in depth. I feel I got absolutely the best possible analysis from them. However, I’m worried about the cost, the system is a real challenge. More focus on saving the customer money would have made it perfect. I am definitely leaning toward them.”

“My Wife and I were extremely pleased with the Customer Service, Professionalism, Knowledge, and Expertise provided by Jordan Van Cleave and his staff at Quality Heating and Cooling. I was very impressed they didn’t try to sell me options and services that we didn’t need and they were extremely thorough with explaining all of our options. They helped discover that our current system was not installed properly and in fact our current system was spreading fiberglass insulation into our children’s rooms — This is a major health hazard and health concern. We were pleased with products, services, and they got all of their work done in a timely manner. I was impressed with how their employees remained professional when on the job site alone and we would HIGHLY RECOMMEND QUALITY HEATING AND COOLING to anyone in the Treasure Valley looking for Heating and Cooling needs.”
