Ducted HVAC systems deliver whole-home comfort through a network of ductwork connecting a central air handler and condenser to every room in your home or building.

Ductwork Installation, Repair & Sealing NYC
The ductwork is the foundation of any ducted HVAC system. Poorly sized, leaking, or uninsulated ductwork wastes up to 30% of your system's energy output and creates uneven temperatures throughout your home.

- ✔ Duct resizing for improved airflow balance

- ✔ Duct sealing, Aeroseal and mastic sealant
- ✔ Duct insulation, attic, crawlspace, and basement
- ✔ Flexible duct installation and replacement
- ✔ Sheet metal duct fabrication and installation
- ✔ Duct cleaning and disinfecting
- ✔ Noise and vibration damping
NYC homes and brownstones often have ductwork that is decades old, undersized for modern equipment, full of leaks, and running through unconditioned attic or basement spaces.

Ducted HVAC vs Ductless Mini Split vs PTAC in NYC
Choosing the right HVAC system for your NYC property depends entirely on your building type, existing infrastructure, and whole-home comfort goals.
Ducted HVAC, best for NYC townhouses, brownstones, single-family homes, and larger apartments where whole-home heating and cooling through ductwork is desired. Provides consistent, even comfort throughout every room and the highest air quality with proper filtration. Required for properties needing forced air heating with a gas furnace. Ducted heat pump systems qualify for Con Edison rebates up to $20,000.
Ductless mini split, best for buildings without existing ductwork where installing ducts is impractical or cost-prohibitive, pre-war apartments, co-ops, and single rooms needing targeted comfort. More affordable to install in ductwork-free spaces, and also qualifies for Con Edison rebates.
PTAC, best for quick room-by-room replacement in hotels and older apartment buildings. Self-contained, no ductwork needed, lowest installation cost, but lowest efficiency and no whole-home air distribution.
Not sure which system is right for your property? Our technicians assess your specific building and give you an honest recommendation for every budget.
