Duct Testing and Sealing
Studies show the average duct system loses 20% to 40% of its heating energy through leaks. Springfield Utility Board’s duct testing and sealing program is designed to increase comfort and provide energy savings to SUB customers.
This program is available for manufactured and site built homes that heat with an electric forced air furnace or heat pump system. Customers with gas heated homes are not eligible. Please contact us at 541-746-0963 for more information.
