Why Do Older North Charleston Homes Have So Many Duct Problems?
Central Air Came Later
Park Circle was laid out in the 1910s as an English garden style community, and many North Charleston homes near Rivers Avenue predate central air. The ducts were added later, often in a crawl space, and they leak.
| What You Notice | What's Usually Under the House |
|---|---|
| Back bedrooms stay warm | Long, crushed or disconnected runs |
| Musty smell when the AC runs | Wet duct insulation and standing water |
| High bills for a small house | 20 to 30% of air leaking out |
| Floors feel cold in winter | Uninsulated ducts and an open crawl space |
Should I Seal, Replace or Encapsulate?
Seal ducts that are sound but leaky. Replace ducts that are crushed or wet through. Encapsulate the crawl space when moisture keeps coming back.
- Duct sealing often runs $800-$2,500+.
- New crawl space ductwork runs $2,500-$7,500+.
- Crawl space encapsulation runs $3,500-$12,000+.

- Rooms over the garage that run hot.

How Do I Know If My North Charleston System Is Too Big?
