About Delray Beach
Airflow Diagnostic & Duct Balancing Assessment in Delray Beach, FL.
In Delray Beach, uneven cooling usually traces back to how the house grew. A 1960s ranch in Delray Shores may have a primary suite added on, a garage turned into a bedroom and a kitchen opened to the family room, all fed by the original duct system. The result is a living room that's comfortable while the addition stays warm. Second-story additions are even harder for an older duct system to reach. Near the beach, homes with big glass facing east and south heat up quickly in the morning sun, and in the large communities west of I-95, rooms at the far end of long hallways often lag behind. Our Airflow Diagnostic and Duct Balancing Assessment pinpoints why specific rooms in your Delray Beach home don't keep up. It is a paid visit, with the fee quoted when you book. Instead of trading in equipment that may be fine, you learn where the airflow is falling short and what it will take to fix it.
About this service
Airflow Diagnostic & Duct Balancing Assessment in Delray Beach
If some rooms in your home are always warmer or colder than others, the problem usually isn't the size of your air conditioner. It's how the air moves through your ducts. Long or undersized runs, crushed flex, leaky joints, missing returns and dampers set by guesswork all keep air from reaching the rooms that need it. Replacing the AC or adding a smart thermostat rarely fixes that, and closing vents in other rooms often makes it worse.
Swift's Residential Airflow Diagnostic and Duct Balancing Assessment measures what your system is actually doing. We read total external static pressure with a manometer and compare it with your air handler's rated limit. We measure airflow at every supply register with a flow hood or anemometer and compare each room with what its load requires. We run a duct leakage test that pressurizes the duct system to find out how much air escapes before it reaches your rooms. And we take room-by-room temperature readings and scan ceilings, walls and duct runs with a thermal camera.
Then we balance the system: adjusting dampers, correcting register sizes and styles, adding transfer grilles or jumper ducts so closed bedrooms have a return path, and sealing the leaks we can reach. Our target is the same one we design to on new installations, every bedroom within 3°F of the thermostat, consistent with ACCA's Manual RS comfort guidelines.
You get a clear explanation of every reading and of what we changed. If something bigger is needed, such as a new return, duct repairs or a full duct replacement designed with Manual J and Manual D, we'll show you the numbers that support it and give you a price before any further work. The assessment is a paid diagnostic visit, and we quote the fee when you book. Call (561) 685-8408 to schedule.

Local details
Airflow Diagnostic & Duct Balancing Assessment details for Delray Beach.
Our assessment combines four measurements. Total external static pressure, read with a manometer, shows whether the blower is fighting restrictive ducts, a clogged filter or an undersized return, which is common in Delray Beach homes that added rooms without adding returns. Airflow at each supply register, measured with a flow hood or anemometer, shows which rooms are getting shortchanged. A duct leakage test pressurizes the system and tells us how much air escapes before it reaches a room. Room-by-room temperature readings and a thermal camera scan show where the duct is losing the battle with heat from the attic, walls and windows. With that data, we balance the system: dampers adjusted, registers matched to the room, jumper ducts or transfer grilles added where a closed door blocks the return, and leaks sealed where we can reach them. If an addition simply needs its own supply, or the ducts in your Delray Beach home need replacing, we tell you that plainly.

Frequently asked questions
Sometimes. If the addition's duct is in decent shape, adjusting dampers and adding a return path can bring it close to the rest of the house. If the measurements show the duct is simply too small for the room's load, the fix is a new, properly sized supply. Either way, the assessment tells you which applies to your Delray Beach home.
Static pressure is the resistance the blower pushes against: ducts, filter, coil and grilles. Every air handler has a maximum the manufacturer allows. When the reading is above it, airflow drops, comfort suffers and parts wear faster. Many Delray Beach homes with added rooms but no added returns read high, so it's one of the first numbers we check.
Often, yes. If some rooms are uncomfortable, a new AC alone may not change that, because the problem is in the duct system. The assessment shows whether your Delray Beach home needs balancing, duct repairs or a new duct design, so your next system is matched to ducts that can actually deliver its air.
Four: total external static pressure measured with a manometer, airflow at every supply register measured with a flow hood or anemometer, a duct leakage test that pressurizes the duct system, and room-by-room temperature readings with a thermal camera scan. We then balance the system where we can and review the results with you.
It's a paid diagnostic visit. The fee depends on the size of your home and the number of systems, and we quote it when you book so there are no surprises. Any balancing adjustments we can make during the visit are included, and any further repairs are priced before we do them.
