Energy Efficiency & Cost Savings

Air escaping through unsealed duct joints increases energy consumption and forces HVAC equipment to work harder. Our testing identifies leakage points so repairs can be made, reducing utility costs and improving long-term system efficiency.

Code Compliance & Verification

Many projects — especially new construction and commissioning — require duct leakage testing to meet building codes, engineer specifications, and LEED standards. Synergy Mechanical Inc. provides accurate testing results and clear documentation to satisfy local inspectors, commissioning agents, and design requirements.

Improved Comfort & System Performance

Leakage reduces airflow to occupied spaces, causing temperature inconsistencies, equipment strain, and poor indoor comfort. Our testing ensures your ducts deliver the correct volumes of air as intended by the design, improving overall building performance.
