Does your duct make sounds after the HVAC goes on?

If you own an HVAC in San Diego and the HVAC makes sound after being switched on then, for sure there is some issue that has to be sorted out. The sounds produced by the duct can be due to a number of factors. If these are checked earlier it will help to prevent further damage and repair.


Duct Issues


· Many HVACs have undersized duct that keeps on expanding due to increase in pressure. On the return side, a vacuum is created due to expansion and contraction which produces a banging sound.


· The expanding and contracting movements of the hangers and the ducts produces tickling sounds.


· If the outside and inside components are linked together then, the duct carries the same vibrations that produce some buzzing and howling sounds.


· The return part of the HVAC may need air so, the plenum produces banging sounds.


· Sediments or debris inside the duct may also produce whizzing sounds.


Preventions


· Insulating the ducts with rubber shields to decrease the noises or to stop them permanently.


· Check whether the internal and external duct works are not connected to the same pathway.


· Check the temperature high number from the return side to make sure it gets enough air.


· Contact a technician if the return side’s temperature doesn’t match with required temperature tally.


· HVAC duct cleaning San Diego is important to make sure the noises are stopped.

Maintenance


To prevent all these noises and vibrations from occurring, it is essential to maintain and clean the ductworks regularly. The dirt build ups inside the ducts may result in gaps and holes that cause feeble sounds.


It is better to go for HVAC duct cleaning San Diego to get ample amount of cool air or heat without these sounds. Cleaning the debris inside the ductwork also lengthens the lifespan of an HVAC and helps in increasing its working efficiency. If any serious problem prevails even after cleaning the ducts then, contact a technician.
