Measure airflow, adjust dampers, and verify comfort room by room.
In multi-story buildings, air balancing eliminates hot or cold spots by ensuring each floor receives proper airflow and stable temperatures.
If you notice uneven temperatures or weak airflow, schedule a professional air balancing service to optimize efficiency and comfort.

Air balancing used to be mostly commercial, but it's now common in homes to improve comfort and efficiency.
When should I consider air balancing?
If some rooms are consistently hotter or colder, airflow feels weak, or energy bills are rising, air balancing can identify and correct the problem.
How long does air balancing take?
Most homes can be balanced in a few hours, while larger commercial buildings may take longer depending on system size and complexity.
Is air balancing the same as duct cleaning?
No. Duct cleaning removes debris, while air balancing measures and adjusts airflow to deliver the right amount of conditioned air to each space.
