Top-rated independent heating and cooling across southern Nevada and the desert Southwest
Duct Replacement
We replace failed and leaking duct systems in homes across Arizona, California, Nevada and Utah, from crushed flex runs in a hot attic to disconnected trunk lines feeding a rooftop package unit. You need replacement when ducts are torn, collapsed, full of dust, or so leaky that rooms never reach temperature no matter how long the AC runs. Before you call, open every closed vent and put in a fresh filter. If rooms are still uneven, call us and we will inspect the duct system and tell you what we found.

What Duct Replacement Actually Involves
We start at the air handler or package unit and work outward, mapping every run, boot and register before anything comes out. Old flex duct gets pulled and hauled off, damaged sheet metal is cut back to sound material, and new duct is sized to the load of each room rather than copied from what was there. Connections are sealed and strapped, insulation is brought up to spec for attic heat, and we test airflow at the registers before we call the job finished.
What We Check And Install
We check static pressure, supply and return balance, the condition of the plenum, and whether the return side is starved, which is common in older homes across the region. Then we install properly sized trunk and branch runs, new boots at the ceiling or floor, sealed collars, and insulated flex where the attic runs long and hot. If the return is undersized we enlarge it. Dust intrusion gets addressed at the joints, because desert dust finds every gap and ends up on your coil.
How We Decide Replacement Is The Right Call
Repair comes first when the damage is local. One torn run, a loose collar or a single crushed elbow gets fixed and we move on. We recommend replacement when leakage is spread across the system, when duct is decades old and shedding, when rodents or water have contaminated the interior, or when the layout was never sized for the equipment. We show you what we saw, explain the difference in airflow you should expect, and let you decide without pressure.

How long does duct replacement take?
Most homes are a one to three day job depending on square footage, attic access and how much sheet metal has to be rebuilt. We stage the work so your AC runs part of each day when the weather demands it.
Will new ducts fix hot and cold rooms?
Usually yes, if the cause is leakage or undersized runs. We measure airflow room by room first, because sometimes the problem is a failing blower or a low refrigerant charge instead of the duct itself.
Can you replace ducts on a rooftop package unit?
Yes. We handle the roof curb transition, the supply and return drops, and the runs below in the ceiling space. Rooftop systems take a beating from sun and dust, so sealed connections matter even more.
How it works
- Step 1
Tell us the symptom
Call or fill out the quote form. We ask what changed, when it started, and whether the outdoor unit is running. That tells us which parts and gauges to load on the truck before we leave.
- Step 2
We diagnose on site
We check the thermostat, the electrical side, airflow, refrigerant pressures, and the condenser coil. Desert dust plugs coils and dying capacitors are common. You get the finding in plain words before we touch a part.
- Step 3
Repair and verify
We make the repair, then run the system and measure supply air temperature and amp draw so we know it is actually cooling or heating. We tell you what we saw and what to watch for next season.

Why homeowners call us
- We know rooftop unitsHalf the valley has a package unit on the roof, baking all summer. We are up there regularly, so we know how those cabinets fail, where the drain pans rust, and how heat and sun break down wiring and blower assemblies.
- Dust is the local enemyFine desert dust mats onto condenser coils and chokes airflow, and the system runs hot until something gives up. We check the coil on every call and tell you honestly whether cleaning will fix your cooling problem.
- July gets treated like JulyA dead condenser when it is 112 outside is not a routine call. We prioritise homes with no cooling, and we say clearly when we can be there instead of leaving you guessing all afternoon.
- Heating tooDesert nights get cold and furnaces sit unused for months. We do heater repair and furnace repair, including no-ignition problems, bad igniters, and blowers that hum without moving air. Same straight explanation, no upsell speech.
