For Northlake Homeowners

Northlake, zoned to Northwest ISD, has seen rapid new residential construction in recent years near the Charles Schwab and Alliance Texas corridor. New builds still benefit from a maintenance plan to protect the manufacturer warranty, even though the equipment itself is new.

Northlake FAQ

Can I seal ductwork myself with tape from the hardware store?+

Standard duct tape performs poorly over time despite the name. Proper sealing uses mastic sealant or foil tape rated for HVAC use, and finding every leak often means accessing attics or crawlspaces most homeowners don't regularly enter.

Will duct sealing definitely fix my comfort complaints?+

Only if duct leaks are actually the cause. If the real issue is equipment sizing or insulation, sealing ductwork alone won't fully solve it, which is why we connect any inspection to your specific complaint first.
