Ducts and their related pieces—seams, seals and joists—begin to deteriorate around 15 years. They reach their maximum life span around 20 to 25 years. Ductwork also expands and contracts throughout the change in temperatures. These changes over the years can cause it to break apart and lose air. Leaks can hike your utility costs and contribute to poor indoor air quality. Cracked ducts can draw in and diffuse pollen, dust and other impurities. Your attic, crawl space, garage or other uninsulated space could contain some of your ductwork. Moisture can occur during periods of high humidity, causing rust to eat through the metal. 5 Signs You Need to Replace Your Ductwork There are a few other clues that can indicate ductwork needs to be replaced: 1.Your ducts are more than 15 years old. 2.Your home is extremely dusty, or allergies are more severe at home. 3.You can’t manage the temperature in specific rooms. 4.You can see ducts that are crushed. 5.You smell a strong musty scent when your HVAC system is on.
