What's causing my ductwork to pop when the furnace starts or stops?
Popping sounds are typical if there’s a problem or damage in your ductwork. The actual sounds appear when there’s more airflow than your ductwork can manage. Trouble with your ductwork can lead to other ventilation and air quality concerns, such as:
- Constant or undesirable noise
- Greater energy waste
- Premature equipment failure
- Inconsistent heating and cooling
- Damage to the AC’s compressor
- Overheating
- Mold and mildew growth
-
Should I install a zoning system?
A whole-home zoning system helps you tweak where heating and cooling is concentrated. With extra thermostats and dampers installed in the ductwork, each zone’s temperature can be uniquely adjusted.
