"What had happened was, at my mother's house we had an air conditioning installed and it wasn't properly installed. So it wasn't really cooling anything, but the bills were still running pretty high. There was a leak in the duct."

"I got estimates for installing a new furnace from two companies on Angieslist.  Their estimates were very similar but I decided to go with Duke because I felt it was easier to deal with him.  It was a good decision.  My daughter works two jobs so her time is limited.  I am retired but live almost an hour away.  Duke was wonderful about scheduling so that my trips to her condo were limited and her time available time was maximized.  The furnace was installed on a day she could be there by Juan and Jesus.   After the installation they found a problem with a ceiling duct but instead of scheduling another appointment, they went to get the materials and fixed it that day.  A required test and inspection by the city was set up based on our schedules.  Duke and his technicians were pleasant, easy to work with, cleaned up after themselves and got the job done in a minimum amount of time.

"I was extremely impressed with the service provided by Air Sharks, who replaced my aging furnace and damaged heat ducts. Elizabeth provided a detailed explanation in a friendly, professional and understandable way. Pricing seemed reasonable, and was 25% below a previous estimate. Daniel and his crew did a fantastic job removing and replacing the new furnace and the duct system in a very tight crawl space. They left the furnace looking absolutely beautiful and clean. I highly recommend them"

"Venice the technician was friendly and was able to quickly diagnose the problem which was the hose that connected to the pump broke and it looked pretty old. Since we couldn’t just replace the connector to the hose, getting a new part was the best choice."

"Rittinger responded quickly. Alan, the tradesman they sent over was professional and quick. I hired them to install a clothes dryer vent and to open up a vent in my garage for the hot water heater. The work was high quality and installation was clean."

"I had been using another company and bought an A/C system from them and there were problems. Josh explained the previous company did not install it correctly. He identified and corrected the problems with the previous A/C installation and installed a new A/C system and gas furnace as well. He was very professional, easy to trust, and he did everything he said he was going to do and was on time. The price was reasonable and he is honest and has integrity!"

"The technician named William responded immediately. He came the same day. He carried out the inspection and fixed the issue for a nominal amount. He then sat down and showed me all the pictures of the furnace. He explained what was wrong. Excellent service overall. I will recommend him for anyone in need of assistance with their central heating and cooling systems."

"Pelle Heating & Air, Inc. came over did a really good job at first we had put in a larger air duck and its wasn't quite providing the results I was looking for and I let the owner Steve know and he came back over and made everything work good by putting an inline fan in and we even installed a new attic fan. I would recommend Pelle Heating & Air, Inc. as they really want to do things right and make sure that the customer is satisfied. I just say I'm very happy with the work and really recommend that you give them a try."

FAQs for ducts & vents installation and replacement projects in San Jose, CA

Return air vents aren't required in every room, but proper placement is essential for system efficiency. According to industry standards, you'll need one return vent for every 100 to 150 square feet of living space. Ideally, each room would have its own return vent, especially larger rooms exceeding 100 square feet. 

Without adequate return airflow, your HVAC system works harder, energy costs increase, and comfort decreases. A professional assessment can determine the optimal number and placement of return vents for your specific home layout.

Signs that your home needs additional return air vents include rooms that feel consistently stuffy, noticeable temperature variations between rooms, doors that slam shut when the HVAC system operates, or unexpectedly high energy bills. Excessive dust accumulation around supply vents can also indicate inadequate return airflow. 

If you experience these issues, consulting with an HVAC professional can help determine if adding return vents would improve your system's performance.

Supply vents deliver conditioned air into your living spaces, while return air vents draw room air back to your HVAC system for reconditioning. Supply vents push treated air into rooms, while return vents pull air from rooms back toward your heating and cooling equipment. 

Both components are essential for proper air circulation and system balance. Without sufficient return capacity, your HVAC system may experience pressure imbalances that reduce efficiency and comfort.

You should inspect and clean your return air vents at least once annually, according to industry recommendations. However, homes with pets, allergy sufferers, or noticeable dust buildup may benefit from more frequent cleaning. 

Regular maintenance helps maintain good indoor air quality and ensures your HVAC system operates efficiently. Professional duct cleaning, which addresses the entire system beyond just the visible vents, is recommended every few years, depending on your home's specific conditions.
