Air Duct Testing Kansas City | Central Energy Audits
Kansas City Air Duct Testing by Central Energy Audits helps identify and fix costly air leakage in HVAC ductwork, improving efficiency, comfort, and indoor air quality. Our certified duct testing services are essential for builders needing energy code compliance and homeowners seeking lower utility bills in the Kansas City area.
What Is Air Duct Testing and Why Does It Matter?
Air duct testing evaluates how much conditioned air is lost through leaks in your duct system. Leaky ducts force HVAC systems to work harder, raising energy costs and reducing comfort.
With advanced tools like duct blasters, we test the integrity of your entire duct network and provide detailed leakage measurements.

Our Air Duct Testing Process
Step 1 – System Prep
We seal off supply and return vents, then pressurize the ductwork using specialized equipment.
Step 2 – Leakage Measurement
We use a duct blaster fan to assess airflow and measure total leakage in cubic feet per minute (CFM) at test pressure.

You receive a compliance-ready report with your duct leakage score, plus recommendations if the system fails to meet thresholds.
