Air Ducts
If one room in your house is always too warm while another feels just right, your HVAC system might not be the problem. Your ductwork could be the real culprit.
R.A. Hoy installs, seals, and repairs air ducts for homes throughout the Outer Banks. When ductwork has leaks, gaps, or disconnected sections, the air you’ve already paid to heat or cool can escape into your attic or crawl space before it ever reaches your rooms. That means less comfort for you and more work for your HVAC system.
Our technicians can inspect your ductwork, find where air is being lost, and recommend the right repairs. And if you need new ductwork for an HVAC replacement, home addition, or another project, we’ll design it with balanced airflow in mind so every room gets the air it needs.

Air Duct Installation
Good airflow starts with ductwork that’s properly designed for your home. Whether we’re installing a complete duct system or extending your existing ductwork for an addition, we’ll make sure it’s sized and laid out to move air where it needs to go. The goal is simple: more consistent comfort from room to room without making your HVAC system work harder than necessary.
Air Duct Inspection & Repair
Duct problems can be easy to miss because most of the system is hidden behind walls, above ceilings, or underneath your home. We’ll inspect your ductwork for leaks, gaps, disconnected sections, and insulation issues that could be allowing conditioned air to escape. If we find a problem, we’ll walk you through what’s happening and what we recommend doing about it. Sometimes a relatively small duct repair can make a noticeable difference in how comfortable your home feels.
Looking at the Whole System
If one room isn’t cooling properly, it’s tempting to focus only on that part of the house. But the actual problem could be somewhere else in the duct system. That’s why we take a look at the bigger picture. We’ll check where air could be escaping and how it’s moving throughout your home so we can get to the source of the problem instead of simply treating the symptom.

FAQs
What are the signs my ductwork might have a leak?
Uneven temperatures are one of the biggest clues. If certain rooms never seem to reach the temperature you’ve set, or there’s a noticeable difference from one part of the house to another, your ductwork may be worth checking. Higher-than-expected energy bills and dust that seems to build up quickly around your vents can also point to leaks, gaps, or disconnected sections.
How often should ductwork be inspected?
You don’t necessarily need your ductwork inspected every year, but having it checked every few years can help catch problems before they become bigger issues. It’s also a good idea to schedule an inspection if you’ve noticed uneven heating or cooling, your energy bills have unexpectedly increased, or you’re replacing your HVAC system. New or modified ductwork should also be checked afterward to make sure everything is properly sealed.
Can sealing my ducts actually lower my energy bills?
If your ductwork has significant leaks, sealing them can help. Think about it this way: your HVAC system has already used energy to heat or cool that air. If the air escapes into your attic or crawl space before reaching your rooms, your system has to keep running to make up for what’s being lost. Sealing those leaks helps more of that conditioned air get where it’s supposed to go, which can reduce unnecessary strain on your system. Duct problems also tend to travel with humidity problems, and an indoor air quality assessment measures both before anything gets replaced.

Three installers showed up on time and were down removing the old system and installing the new one before 3 PM that same day. The estimator and the installers were professional and efficient. Would recommend them again
