Homeowners' pick for heating and cooling across central Kentucky and the Bluegrass
Duct Replacement
Duct replacement means pulling out the old duct runs and installing new ones, and we do it for homeowners across Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee and West Virginia. It is the right job when the ducts are crushed, rusted through, disconnected in a crawlspace, or so leaky that sealing them would be patching a sieve. If some rooms never get warm or cool no matter what the thermostat says, call us and we will look at the duct system before anyone talks about a new furnace or AC.

What a duct replacement job involves
We start in the crawlspace, basement or attic and map what is actually there, because in older farmhouses the ductwork was often added decades after the house was built. Then we remove the failed runs and install properly sized trunk and branch lines, sealed at every joint and supported so they do not sag. Registers and boots get reset, returns get sized to match the supply, and we run the system afterward to confirm air is reaching the rooms it is supposed to reach.
What we check and what we install
We check static pressure, register airflow, return capacity, insulation condition and the condition of every connection at the air handler or furnace plenum. On propane and dual-fuel systems we pay close attention to how the duct sizing matches the heating side, since those systems move air differently in cold weather. New work is sealed rigid or insulated flex depending on the space, with proper transitions, dampers where balancing is needed, and insulation rated for unconditioned areas.
How we decide replacement is the right call
Repair first is our default. If the leaks are at a few joints and the metal is sound, we seal and move on. Replacement makes sense when ducts are rotted, insulation is soaked or gone, animals have gotten into them, or the original layout is too undersized to ever balance. We tell you which runs need work and which are fine, so you can do it in stages if that suits the budget better.

Can I replace just part of my ductwork?
Often yes. If the trunk is sound and only a few branch runs have failed, we replace those. We will tell you plainly which sections are worth keeping and which are past saving.
How long does duct replacement take?
Most homes take one to three days depending on crawlspace access and how much duct is being replaced. We keep heating or cooling running where we can and let you know each day's plan.
Will new ducts fix my hot and cold rooms?
Usually, if the cause is undersized or leaking ducts. We measure airflow first so we are not guessing. Sometimes the fix is a return, a damper, or one properly sized branch run.
How it works
- Step 1
Tell us the symptom
Call or fill in the quote form and describe what changed. Warm air, no air, a smell, a noise, a breaker that keeps tripping. That detail tells us what parts to bring along.
- Step 2
We diagnose on site
We check the thermostat, the electrical side, airflow and the equipment itself before we quote anything. If the problem sits in the ductwork rather than the unit, we say so plainly.
- Step 3
We repair and explain
Most air conditioning repair and heating repair work finishes in one visit. We show you the failed part, explain what caused it, and tell you what to watch for next season.

Why homeowners call us
- Propane and dual fuelPlenty of homes in our service area run propane heat or a dual fuel setup with a heat pump. We know how those systems switch over and why a bad changeover setting can leave you cold and burning fuel.
- Older houses, added ductworkFarmhouses often got ducts decades after they were built, run through crawl spaces and attics. When the equipment tests fine but rooms still fight each other, we look at the duct runs and static pressure.
- Repair before replacementA failed capacitor, a cracked wire, a clogged drain or a bad control board is a repair, not a new system. We tell you when the equipment is genuinely finished and when it is not.
- Plain talk on the phoneWe ask what the thermostat reads, whether the outdoor unit is spinning, and when it last worked normally. That two minute conversation often shortens the visit and keeps the repair cost down.
