The Ductologist: Renton WA's Home Performance Experts

Is your Renton home drafty, or do you have rooms that never seem to get comfortable? Uneven temperatures and high energy bills are common in our local climate, from chilly winters to our warmer summers. The Ductologist in Renton WA focuses on finding and fixing these exact problems. They are not just another HVAC company; they are specialists in home performance testing and repair.

Business Overview

The Ductologist is a dedicated team serving Renton and the wider Puget Sound region. They focus entirely on residential homes, helping families live more comfortably and efficiently. While they do not offer 24/7 emergency repair calls, their detailed diagnostic services provide long-term solutions that prevent many common emergencies. As a husband-and-wife team, they bring a personal, thorough approach to every home they visit.

Key Services

The Ductologist offers two core services that work together:

• Home Performance Testing: This is where they start. Using specialized tools, they measure how much air is leaking from your home and ductwork. This testing uncovers the root causes of comfort issues.
• HVAC System & Duct Repair: Once they have the facts from the tests, they can make precise repairs to your heating, cooling, and ventilation systems. This often involves sealing leaky ducts that waste conditioned air.

Company History

The Ductologist was founded by a couple with over 20 years combined experience in energy efficiency. They worked with major utility conservation programs before starting their own business. They saw a gap: many homeowners, contractors, and even utilities were not focusing on the whole-house system. They launched The Ductologist to fill that need, and their growth is based on real results for their customers' comfort and energy savings.
