Duct repair, sealing & replacement for Butte County homes — (530) 718-9271
In Chico, attic temperatures regularly exceed 140–150°F on summer afternoons. If your ductwork runs through that space — and in most Chico homes, it does — any gap, crack, or separated joint is dumping your conditioned air directly into that superheated attic space. Your system runs longer, works harder, and your PG&E bill climbs higher than it should.
Alliance Air Care tests, seals, repairs, and replaces ductwork in Chico homes. Whether you have isolated leaks at connections, collapsed flex duct, or a distribution system that was never properly designed for the home, we identify the problem and fix it so your system delivers what it's rated to deliver.
Chico attics regularly hit 145–150°F on summer afternoons. Even small duct leaks into that superheated space lose enormous amounts of energy. What feels like a well-running system can be wasting 20–30% of its output through leaky attic ducts.
Hot spots in specific rooms — especially far from the air handler — typically trace back to duct leaks or undersized branch runs. We identify exactly where airflow is lost and restore proper balance throughout your home.
Many Chico neighborhoods near downtown and the university feature older homes with ductwork installed decades ago. Deteriorated flex duct, failed mastic joints, and collapsed sections are common problems we find and correct.
Leaky return ducts in Chico can draw orchard dust and particulates directly into the air distribution system, bypassing the filter. Sealing leaks stops both energy loss and contamination.
A properly sealed and insulated duct system in a Chico home can reduce cooling costs significantly — particularly valuable during the long, expensive summer cooling season when systems run for months.
When existing ductwork is beyond repair — heavily damaged, poorly designed, or simply inadequate — we design and install a complete replacement system sized and balanced correctly for your home.
"Front of the house was always cool, back bedrooms never were. They found two disconnected flex duct sections in the attic. Fixed same day and the whole house cools evenly now."

"PG&E bill was out of control for the size of our home. Duct testing revealed major leaks. After sealing, the bill dropped significantly. Should have done this years ago."
— Teresa O., Chico
"Professional assessment, clear explanation of the problem with photos, and a fair price to fix it. No unnecessary upsell. This is how home service should work."
— Kevin S., Chico
