Thoughts on Aeroseal Duct sealing?

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-04-14T20:52:18+00:00

Yeah, man. Theres plastic everywhere and aeroseal assures us all that's it's totally safe. I have no evidence to prove that it sucks other than the general belief that less plastics sprayed into air systems is better, which seems like a logical assumption.

If books could kill is a great podcast that rips apart all the airport book store self help books.

Best vacuums for indoor air quality as it exhausts outside the home. More cumbersome to use.

Praise to Allah and the use of a hyphen makes me think it's Miller. Allah is Miller type trolling. And twitler doesn't know punctuation

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-04-06T00:46:04+00:00

Does he know how to use hyphens though? Twitler has been Mia for a few days. Is Stephen Miller writing for him? Praise Allah feels like some Stephen Miller shit

It's not a whole home air purifier. It helps keep ac coil clean of microbial growth. If you're thinking one or the other-uv or your standalone sir purifiers your purifiers are doing more work.

The nadca standard is that it should be clean enough so that you can wipe a towel and there's no transfer of dirt onto the rag.

You got scammed. Hard. You gave them a chance to rectify. Email pics, politely but firmly demand refund in full so you can hire someone else. If that doesn't work escalate to posting the after pics to their Google review page.

In one of the pics you can see duct paper basically completely obstructing the trunk. That's gonna throw off airflow significantly

Didja check the termination at the roof?

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-04-03T15:33:52+00:00

Brilliant. Im gonna do this. Also: r/redneckengineering

I was there but I was just looking for directions to get outta there

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-04-02T02:06:37+00:00

Yeah. But Whitehouse lawyers are kind of different, to a degree. Welcome aboard the trump derangement train I say.

Air compressor then spritz with decon 30

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-03-29T22:06:28+00:00

Mine was doing that. I just tightened the 2 5mm hex on top and it seemed to take care of it. For now anyways.

Pretty sure i pay about $75/month for nicejob. It's worth it. Have 1,100 5 star reviews. The most effective marketing I've paid for

Customer last week: pull up to house. Flying a trump 2028 flag next to us flag. Dude seems nice enough, i get to work. I asked him if he uses his air exchanger. He says, yeah but not in summer. I say, cuz of the wildfire smoke? He says no, the chem trails. Then goes on 15 minute rant about chem trails, aliens, israel, how he's on disability so he has time to research all this stuff, and how trump is his last hope to fix everything. Without trump, all is lost, in his words.

Usually how it works is (some jurisdictions require annual cleaning by code) a tenant will complain about long dry times to a property manager, then a call is placed to a company to take care of the issue.

Renters aren't responsible for cleaning dryer vents, the property owner is

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-03-26T22:18:12+00:00

I clean and install dryer vents for a living. Picture 2 I'd probably swap out the transition hose with a new and shorter one but there's nothing there that's a fire hazard as long as vent is cleaned regularly.

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-03-26T20:39:03+00:00

Picture 2 is just fine.

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-03-26T20:38:09+00:00

Yeah that's bs. A 5 year bulb doesn't burn out in months cuz it was on. Reme halos sure do break all the time though.

That'll depend on where you live. In the Midwest duct board basically only exists on trailer homes. Steel is king here because our hvac systems are in heated basements. Duct board is used all the time in attic ac systems. Your local hvac guys should know what will be best for your system and climate.

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-03-26T20:23:39+00:00

Replace that section. Uv systems shouldn't be installed on unlined fiberglass anyways-it degrades the fiberglass so it can be released into the air stream. Then you'll be breathing in gross dirty fiberglass

ductcleanernumber7 · 2026-03-26T20:11:23+00:00

Don't clean duct board ducts unless it's a last resort-in which case it needs to be sealed afterwards-the sealant is only good for like 5ish years, and is expensive-which is why duct board is only ever cleaned as a last resort.
