Your home’s duct system is the network of metal or flexible pathways that delivers conditioned air from your HVAC unit to every room. Proper duct work is essential for efficient airflow, balanced temperatures, and comfortable living spaces. When designed, installed, and maintained correctly, ducts help your HVAC system perform at its best — improving comfort, reducing energy waste, and extending equipment life.
Foster® 40-20 acts as a durable protective barrier inside your home’s HVAC duct system, helping prevent the growth of mold and odor-causing bacteria. Over time, moisture within ducts and surrounding materials can create ideal conditions for microbial growth. When left untreated, this can lead to unpleasant odors, system contamination, and potential allergy or respiratory irritation.
This long-lasting fungicidal coating is specifically formulated to maintain its effectiveness as it ages, helping stop mold and bacteria from adhering to treated surfaces. It creates a tough, flexible finish that resists cracking or splitting, reducing areas where contaminants can take hold.
For homeowners, this means cleaner airflow, added protection for your HVAC system, and reduced risk of costly damage caused by hidden mold growth. Applied in areas such as ductwork and other vulnerable surfaces, Foster® 40-20 provides an added layer of defense for both your home and your family’s comfort.
Leaky ductwork can significantly reduce your home’s comfort and energy efficiency. When ducts have gaps, cracks, or loose connections, conditioned air escapes into attics, walls, or crawl spaces instead of reaching your living areas. This forces your HVAC system to work harder to maintain the desired temperature.
Air duct sealing focuses on identifying and properly sealing leaks within the duct system to restore efficient airflow. By tightening the system, more heated or cooled air reaches each room as intended.
Over time, dust, debris, and microbial growth can accumulate within the air ducts of central air systems, compromising indoor air quality and reducing HVAC efficiency. Professional air duct cleaning involves removing these contaminants using specialized equipment, such as high-powered vacuums and rotary brushes, to ensure clean and debris-free ductwork. By eliminating buildup, air duct cleaning helps prevent the circulation of pollutants and maintains optimal airflow throughout the home.
Regular air duct maintenance is essential to prolonging the lifespan and efficiency of your HVAC system. This involves periodic inspections to identify and address potential issues like leaks, blockages, or excessive dust buildup. Maintenance also includes replacing air filters, sealing loose connections, and ensuring that vents and registers are clean and unobstructed. By proactively maintaining your air ducts, you can enhance system performance, reduce energy costs, and promote healthier indoor air quality for your home or business.
