Aeroseal Duct Sealing in Olympia
If your home feels stuffy or your energy bills keep creeping up, the problem might be your ductwork. Leaky air ducts are common in homes around Olympia and Puget Sound. Many systems lose up to 30 percent of conditioned air before it reaches the rooms you use.
That’s where the Aeroseal duct sealing system comes in. At Black Hills Inc., we use this advanced technology to seal leaks from the inside. There’s no cutting, no mess, and no guesswork.
What Is Aeroseal Duct Sealing and How Does It Work?
Aeroseal duct sealing is a high-tech solution that seals hidden leaks inside your duct system. Instead of using foil tape or mastic by hand, Aeroseal fills your ductwork with a safe mist made of microscopic sealing particles.
As air moves through the system, the particles collect at the edges of leaks and gradually close them up. The process is computer-controlled from start to finish and gives you clear proof of how much leakage was stopped.
It’s a cleaner and more effective way to solve comfort issues without opening walls or ceilings.
How the Aeroseal Duct Sealing System Seals Hidden Leaks
This isn’t your average patch job. Aeroseal is designed to reach places you can’t see or fix by hand.
Here’s how it works:
- We block off your vents to pressurize the duct system.
- A technician injects the Aeroseal mist into the ducts.
- The mist flows through the system and collects at leak points.
- As it builds up, it seals the leaks from the inside.
- The system runs a test before and after to show results.
It seals holes as small as a pinhole and as wide as half an inch. Even ductwork buried in crawl spaces or behind walls can be treated.

Breathe Easier: Key Benefits of Aeroseal for Your Home
This isn’t just about energy use. When your ducts are sealed properly, everything works better. Your comfort improves, your air gets cleaner, and your utility costs go down.
- Cleaner air. Sealed ducts stop dust and insulation from entering your air.
- Even temperatures. No more rooms that are too hot or cold.
- Lower energy use. Less air loss means shorter system run times.
- Less noise. Fixing pressure issues often reduces rattling.
- Longer system life. Your HVAC system doesn’t have to work as hard.
- Measured results. You’ll see the improvement in a printed report.
Is Aeroseal the Right Solution for Your Home’s Air Ducts?
Many homes can benefit from Aeroseal duct sealing, especially if you notice:
- Hot or cold spots in different rooms
- Finished ceilings or tight spaces that block access
- Rising utility bills without explanation
- Dust collecting around vents
- Older or uninsulated ductwork
- Additions or basements that never feel comfortable
If that sounds familiar, we can help. We also recommend duct cleaning beforehand so the sealant bonds to clean surfaces and works at its best.
Common Signs Your Ductwork May Need Sealing
Watch for these signs of leaky ducts:
- Rooms that are too hot or cold
- Extra dust throughout your home
- High energy bills
- Stuffy air or uneven humidity
- HVAC system runs too often
- Whistling or rattling at vents
Even a few of these signs can point to air escaping behind walls or into unconditioned spaces.
Why Homeowners Are Choosing Areoseal Over Traditional Sealing
- Seals from the inside, even in hard-to-reach areas
- No drywall cuts or major demolition
- Provides measured results with every job
- Quieter and less invasive than manual sealing
- Used in homes, hospitals, and schools
- Safe for families, pets, and indoor air
It solves problems older methods just can’t reach. And it does it without the hassle.
FAQs
What is Aeroseal duct sealing?
Aeroseal seals ductwork from the inside using a non-toxic mist. It targets and closes leaks without tearing open walls or ceilings.
How effective is Aeroseal compared to traditional methods?
It typically seals up to 90 percent of duct leakage. Traditional methods often miss leaks in hidden or buried ducts.
Is Aeroseal safe for my family and pets?
Yes. The sealant is water-based, odor-free, and safe for indoor use. There’s no wait time to re-enter the home after application.
How long does the process take?
Most homes are completed in a day. You’ll get a printed report with before-and-after data.
Can it seal hard-to-reach ducts?
That’s the point. Aeroseal was designed for ductwork that’s behind walls or in tight crawl spaces.
Should I clean my ducts first?
Usually, yes. Clean ducts help the sealant stick properly. We often recommend cleaning as part of the sealing process.
If your home doesn’t feel as comfortable as it should or your energy bills keep rising without a clear reason, it might be time to look inside your ducts. The Aeroseal duct sealing system gives you a clean and proven way to restore airflow and indoor comfort. At Black Hills Inc., we help Olympia homeowners seal the leaks they can’t see so they can finally feel the difference. Call today to schedule your consultation.

Real Comments From Real People
So Very Impressed
- Debbie F.
Diamond Harris was the HVAC Design who came to my house to give me an estimate for a tankless water heater. I was so very impressed. His customer service, extensive knowledge, and professionalism certainly earn the grade of an A+. A true reflection on black hills Inc.'s hiring practice of hiring and retaining only the best employees. My estimate included not only the tankless water heater but the full installation. Diamond Harris is an asset to your company. Black hills inc was referred to me by my parents who had 3 major projects completed by black hills Inc., and loved working with them. With employees like Diamond, I now see why. Such a positive experience. Thank you. Please give my sincere thank-you to Diamond
Awesome Customer Service
- Lillian B.
We spoke to 3 different companies to get an estimate for a new system. Black Hills was the only company that did exactly what they said they would do from the start. I appreciate the text/photo letting me know who would be arriving and he came right on time. Travis was very polite and professional and answered all of our questions. The installation crew was also very quick and professional and cleaned up afterward. Follow-ups to make sure we were happy with service also appreciated. Awesome customer service
Great Service
- Jordon C.
Great service, No BS. Our AC was not keeping up, had a feeling it was because of a leaking coil on the inner unit. Was confirmed by Black Hills Inc. and was set-up with an appointment with a comfort specialist. After the survey with the specialist (Bento Yanez), we sat down and discussed options for replacement, turning out that full replacement with a heat pump/ac/new furnace would be the most efficient cost-effective option. Black Hills was able to access all the previous history on our unit since prior homeowners had used them, they could pull up everything that had previous work done. Looking forward to the replacement unit being installed in only 4 days, after the survey.
