Why Proper Airflow Matters in Newark Homes
February’s cold temperatures put HVAC systems to the test, and poor airflow can make a home uncomfortable and inefficient. Rooms that stay cold, high energy bills, or a system that seems to run constantly are often signs of ductwork or airflow problems.
Optimizing airflow ensures your heating system works efficiently and distributes warmth evenly throughout your home.
Common Causes of Airflow Problems
Leaky Ducts:
Holes or disconnected duct sections can allow warm air to escape before reaching living spaces.
Blocked or Closed Vents:
Furniture, rugs, or accidentally closed registers can restrict airflow.
Improperly Sized Ducts:
Older homes or renovations may have ductwork that doesn’t match the system’s capacity.
Dirty or Clogged Ducts:
Dust, debris, or buildup reduces airflow and forces the system to work harder.
Tips to Improve Airflow This February
Inspect and Clean Ducts:
Professional duct cleaning removes buildup and restores efficient airflow.
Check Vents:
Ensure all registers are open, unobstructed, and positioned correctly.
Seal Duct Leaks:
Properly sealed ducts prevent heat loss and improve system efficiency.

Technicians can identify hidden issues and recommend adjustments for balanced airflow.
