“I reached out to ACR for duct installation and cleaning as my allergies had gotten much worse after working from home. They installed another cold air return in another part of the house as well as ran new larger ducting as we were getting hot spots in certain areas. The system itself was filthy with dust and mold. They cleaned the air handler, squirrel cage, and coated the inside of the ducts. Highly recommend them doing any AC work.”

We Offer Flex Duct Installation & Replacement Solutions
Flexible ductwork is common in Florida homes because it can be routed efficiently through attics and other confined spaces. When properly installed and supported, flex ducts can provide reliable air distribution throughout a home.
A damaged flex duct may allow conditioned air to escape into the attic instead of reaching the intended room.
This can result in weak airflow, inconsistent temperatures, longer AC run times, and increased strain on the HVAC system.
Our technicians can inspect existing flex ductwork and determine whether individual sections can be repaired or whether replacement is the better long-term option.
Common flex duct problems include:
- Sagging duct runs
- Crushed or compressed sections
- Torn outer jackets
- Sharp bends that restrict airflow
- Deterioration from age or attic conditions
- Damaged insulation
- Disconnected ducts
- Poorly secured connections
- Excessively long duct runs
- Ducts resting incorrectly on attic surfaces
- Air leakage around connections
Professional Flex Duct Installation Should Account For
- Proper support spacing
- Smooth duct runs
- Minimal compression
- Appropriate bends
- Secure connections
- Correct sizing
- Adequate clearance
- Protection from damage

FAQs on Ductwork Installations and Replacements
How do I know if my ductwork needs to be replaced?
Common signs include weak airflow, uneven temperatures, visible damage, sagging flex duct, disconnected sections, deteriorated insulation, excessive HVAC run times, and recurring duct repairs. A professional inspection can determine whether targeted repairs or replacement make more sense.
Can sagging flex duct reduce airflow?
Yes. Excessive sagging can restrict the inside of flexible ductwork and increase resistance to airflow. Proper support and installation help maintain a smoother air path.
Can damaged ductwork make my electric bill higher?
Potentially. If conditioned air is escaping through damaged or disconnected ducts, your HVAC system may need to operate longer to reach the thermostat setting.
Do you replace flex duct?
Yes. American Air Conditioning & Restoration provides flex duct repair, installation, and replacement for residential and commercial HVAC systems throughout Sarasota and Manatee County.
Do you install sheet metal ductwork?
Yes. We provide sheet metal ductwork installation and modification for appropriate residential and commercial HVAC applications, including trunks, plenums, transitions, and other air distribution components.
Should ductwork be inspected when replacing an air conditioner?
Yes. The existing duct system should be considered when installing new HVAC equipment. Damaged, restrictive, improperly sized, or poorly configured ducts can prevent new equipment from delivering its intended performance.
Is duct repair the same as duct cleaning?
No. Duct repair addresses the physical condition and performance of the ductwork. Duct cleaning removes accumulated dust or contaminants from portions of the air distribution system. Depending on the condition of the system, one or both services may be appropriate.
Can bad ductwork cause one room to stay hotter than the others?
Yes. A damaged, disconnected, restricted, undersized, or poorly configured duct serving a particular room can contribute to weak airflow and uneven temperatures.
Do you provide commercial ductwork services?
Yes. ACR provides commercial HVAC and ductwork services for offices, retail properties, senior living communities, schools, athletic and training facilities, warehouses, multi-family properties, and other commercial buildings throughout Sarasota and Manatee County.
Can you repair ductwork in an attic?
Yes. Many residential duct systems in Florida are located in attics. Our technicians can evaluate accessible attic ductwork for damage, sagging, disconnected sections, deteriorated materials, and other installation or airflow concerns.
