NO sir! You should have used mastic under the insulation not suggesting to put it over the flex insulation! Tape it, zip it, and then mastic it. Once that’s done then you close your insulation!!!

Nice video man I actually had a customer with a complaint about wet supply grilles. Took off the cover and seen the mildew where the air had been leaking and mixing with the attic air. I swear its the little stuff that makes a big difference

I'm in the process of air sealing my system. Glad you mentioned the uselessness of duct tape! The previous owner of my home didn't see your vid! Lol. Bummer that the furnace in this vid in enclosed the way it is. Much harder to use mastic on the side and back seals. I assume you used either mastic or aluminum tape on the pipes coming from the furnace.

Thank you for an excellent educational video. I learned a lot. Carry On Sir!

I was going to get a new unit but now I see. Good info. Thank you

Reason why his duct strand gun didnt cut you got to squeeze then cut while your squeezing

What do you put on wood?

Sealing duct board

That's nice. Here in NYC I have not met any HVAC contractor that gives a dam about sealing. Its an unheard of concept here, like an endangered species.

Can you put mastic inside the duct?

I've gotta ask, when you threw the "DuctTape" (not real duct tape) over your shoulder, was it intended for a light to go out? Haha

I started taping up my connections. Just sealing the hood alone, increased my heat distribution. Now I'm going along all the exposed basement ducts and taping connections and seams. I've been hearing/thinking about 'duct insulation/thermal beaker' wrap. Something along the lines of 'reflectix'. So the heat loss/exchange through the ducts are reduced. I'm trying to get my furnace and ducts as efficient as possible in -30c winters. I also have improper heat distribution that's why I started fixing. Let me ask, if all my ducts are sealed will it be a problem when I get someone certified to do a tune up and cleaning?

Excellent video now I can seel of my events. Our system is over 30 years old so I’m starting some tear on the wrapping plastic around air ducts. Will the test show you if a system is leaking?

Will this apply for 2021?

That duct will condensate

@8:00, is this grill called return-air?

at 5:55 I see 2 holes in the box. ;-)

Great Video, I like what you did with the tape at the register hole. I have a fiberglass duct with gaps at the end caps and at the 90 degree connections. I only have access to the inside no the outside. Do I seal it with tape, paste, caulk, insulation foam? Thank you

Unfortunately most of the ductwork is behind walls, ceilings & floors at needs sealing.

i love this guy

excellent video George!

Where do I buy the tape? Thanks

Think you broke your light dude 0:49

Have you tried aeroseal? I’ve watched a few videos on it. Do you think it’s a scam, or does it really work? And is it worth the money?

Great video. I will follow your guidance and see what happens.

Nice job. Thanks for the video. You seem like a nice lady.

This was very helpful, thank you. I was researching a solution for my leaky air handler, and was wondering exactly how mastic worked. You are the first video that I've actually seen apply it. Mine might need more than one coat . Seems so simple, but it builds a bit of confidence. Thanks again

Excellent.

LOL 9:34

If I’m having condensation around my register should I use that tape to prevent leakage
