Ductwork Installation in Los Angeles
A new system is only as good as the ducts behind it. In many older LA homes, attic ducts leak, sag or are crushed, and a lot of the air you pay for never reaches the rooms.

Ductwork Installation Across Los Angeles
Attics in many Burbank, Glendale and Studio City homes get extremely hot in summer, and leaky ducts there lose much of their cooling before it reaches the rooms. For homes with no attic access at all, ductless is often the better answer.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about HVAC installation.
01Do I need new ducts with a new AC?
Not always. We test the existing ducts first. If they pass and are sized right, we keep them.
02Can you add ducts to a room that has none?
Usually, if there is attic or crawlspace access. If not, a ductless head is a simpler option for that room.
03What is zoning?
Motorized dampers in the ducts, controlled by separate thermostats, so upstairs and downstairs or different wings can be set independently.
