Ductwork sealing is an important part of having an HVAC

The technician started making progress to get those ducts sealed off, but I’m considering whether I should even continue with the same HVAC system.

I just purchased a new home and it’s been quite the process! I’ve had to make a few updates to the house and it’s been a challenging learning curve. I’ve never made any type of home improvements before, so it’s taking me a while to get used to making my own decisions. I’ve been in a long conversation with my air conditioning company that I found. There are so many air conditioning companies here, but I ended up picking the one that is advertised on the bench at my bus stop. The technician has been by a few times to do some inspections and advise me on any updates that I should make for the longevity of the air conditioner. It turns out that the air conditioner hadn’t had any updates in a very long time, and the original home inspection did not state that. The ductwork sealing is horrible and causes a lot of the air to leak out. My first three months in the house have had incredibly high energy bills due to the air ducts leaking. The technician started making progress to get those ducts sealed off, but I’m considering whether I should even continue with the same HVAC system. It seems like there are lots of other options for air conditioners that may not be as complicated. Even though I suck at making decisions, I know that I will figure it out and decide what’s best for my home. I’m really looking forward to this new adventure by myself, and hope that I will grow in so many ways as a result.
