Do ducts in houses leak? Tests have shown that in most houses the answer is yes, and most of those ducts leak enough to merit sealing. Duct leaks create uncontrolled airflows with consequences that include low pressure zones, increased infiltration that can increase or decrease humidity, nonuniform temperatures, and energy/capacity losses for the HVAC system.
