Duct Diagnostic Testing

Leaking Air Ducts
Many Austin homes lose a third of conditioned—heated or cooled—air through leaking ductwork. Leaking ducts can pull dust and other pollutants into your air system.

Duct Diagnostic Testing
For just $50 per central air conditioning system, an Austin Energy contracted company will check your air conditioner and test your ducts for:
 Significant leaks
 Room-by-room air flow, cooling, and heating
 Carbon monoxide
 Sufficient flow through return air vents
 Penetration of unconditioned air

Duct System Improvements
If the Austin Energy contracted company recommends duct improvements, you can:
 Request a quote from that company to perform recommended repairs
 Request a quote from any Austin Energy participating contractor to perform repairs
 Choose not to perform repairs or to perform them at another time

When you hire an Austin Energy participating contractor to perform recommended duct improvements, you are eligible for rebates through our Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® program.

Eligibility
 You are an Austin Energy customer
 The property owner must apply
 You have an existing central air conditioner or heat pump
