Common Ductwork Problems We Fix
Poorly installed or aging ductwork creates a cascade of issues: uneven heating and cooling, excessive energy consumption, and premature system wear. In Memphis, humidity accelerates insulation breakdown, while older homes often suffer from undersized or poorly routed ducts.
Leaky ductwork in crawlspaces creates humidity problems that contribute to Memphis's mold issues, and we frequently discover flex ducts that have collapsed or torn in tight spaces. Homes near the Wolf River or in low-lying areas face challenges with condensation on improperly insulated supply ducts.
These flaws force HVAC units to work harder, increasing utility bills and reducing comfort. Our installations eliminate these problems by ensuring correct sizing, airtight sealing, and proper insulation. By addressing airflow inefficiencies at the source, we help homeowners avoid costly repairs and extend the life of their heating and cooling systems.

FAQs About Duct Installation & Replacement
How Long Does Duct Installation Take?
Most complete duct installations in average-sized Memphis homes take three to five days from start to finish, though timing depends on the layout and accessibility of your home. Single-story ranch homes with accessible attics generally move faster than two-story homes requiring ductwork through interior walls. We work clean, protect your belongings, and schedule around your availability so you're never left without heating or cooling overnight.
Do I Need a Complete Replacement, or Can You Repair My Existing Ductwork?
That depends on what we find during our assessment, and we'll give you honest guidance either way. Ductwork over 20 years old, particularly in Memphis attics where summer heat accelerates deterioration, often makes more financial sense to replace than repeatedly repair.
If you're experiencing comfort problems in multiple rooms, seeing climbing energy bills, or have upgraded your HVAC equipment within the past few years, new ductwork usually delivers better long-term value.
However, newer systems with localized damage or homes needing modifications for additions might only require partial work. We test for leakage, measure airflow, and evaluate system design before recommending anything.
What Makes Your Duct Installation Different From Other Memphis Contractors?
We engineer your duct system rather than eyeballing it or copying what's already there. Every installation starts with Manual D calculations accounting for the Memphis climate, your home's insulation levels, window exposure, and room-by-room heat loads. Our installers are experienced employees, not subcontractors rushing to the next job, and they use commercial-grade materials with professional mastic sealing at every joint; not cheap duct tape that fails within months.
We test every installation with calibrated equipment measuring static pressure and airflow at each register, giving you documented proof your system performs as designed. We've been doing this in Memphis since 2010, and we'll be here years from now when you need us—that matters when you're making a major home investment.
Can New Ducts Improve Indoor Air Quality?
Absolutely. Properly sealed and insulated ducts reduce dust infiltration, humidity problems, and airborne contaminants, creating a healthier indoor environment.
Do You Handle Ductwork for Older Homes?
Yes. We specialize in retrofitting duct systems in historic and older properties, ensuring modern efficiency without compromising structural integrity.

“It started with Brock, a proficient, patient, helpful, thorough, and courteous representative of Smith’s Plumbing who arrived at scheduled time.”- Magda F.
I am an extremely pleased customer!
"It started with Brock, a proficient, patient, helpful, thorough, and courteous representative of Smith’s Plumbing who arrived at scheduled time. With 3 bids on hand, after Brock responded to my questions on different brands of tankless, position of gas and water pipes, along with a competitive price, It was an EASY decision to have Smith’s Plumbing replacing my 2 tanks water heater with a Rinnai RSC 199 tankless! Respectful, pleasant, and skillful install crew, Cody and Eli along with roofer Scott, took great care to protect wood floor and extra careful with hauling equipment up and down the stairs. The tankless water heater was up and running prior to 5PM on the same day. Rest assured it was my first and surely not my last experience with Smith’s Plumbing as I am an extremely pleased customer!"- Magda F.
