I’m not a fan of plastic flex HVAC duct for my properties

Tiny holes can form in various places, making it leaky as well as difficult to repair

After years of going from one job to the next, I’m now in the company of buying as well as selling residential properties. It all began with a small condo inherited from a dead relative. As much as I wanted to live in the condo myself, I could not handle the financial burden of numerous homes during the time. Since I was forced to sell the condo, I was upset. However, there was a fine that came out of it. I had a fantastic realtor who noticed a ton of potential in my late Aunt’s house, so I needed to make a few straight-forward as well as quick modifications to increase the value to a price I had dreamed of. The realtor made a giant commission as well as would get several thousand in equity on top of the money I expected to earn before the handiwork started. I obtained a nice condo with a portion of the money, did the same thing with the same exact realtor, as well as now several years later, I own more than four properties. Before I rotate them out, I always renovate them for the sale Insuring the ductwork as well as central Heating, Ventilation, as well as A/C plan are in a working as well as safe condition is a large priority. Sporadically, this involves replacing or fixing the entire ventilation system. For years, I’ve installed the cheap plastic ductwork that’s usually called flex duct, which is similar to the bendy vent hose that goes on the back of your clothing dryer. Now, imagine wrapping it in insulation, while covering it with a thin layer of aluminum so it is still able to bend as well as contort in any direction you want. It’s cheap as well as straight-forward to install, but the longevity isn’t fantastic compared to ductwork made from sheet metal. Tiny holes can form in various places, making it leaky as well as difficult to repair. If I want more value out of a property that already needs current ductwork to begin with, I consistently go with custom-split sheet metal HVAC duct.
