A Better Way to Fix Your HVAC Problems

Most HVAC problems run deeper than the unit itself. Leaky ductwork, poor insulation, and hidden air loss are often what’s driving up your electric bill, and most contractors never check for any of it.

Before we touch anything, we run our Air Loss Test, a professional diagnostic that measures exactly where your home is losing air and efficiency. Every recommendation we make is based on real data, not a gut feeling. After the work is done, we test again so you can see exactly what changed.

Air Loss Testing

We use blower door and duct pressure diagnostics to measure your home’s air loss before and after every job. You’ll see the actual numbers, not just our word for it.

Before & After Proof

Every job is tested before we start and after we finish. You get documentation of what was found and what was fixed. No guessing, no shortcuts.

Whole-Home Thinking

Your HVAC system, ductwork, and insulation all affect each other. We look at how everything works together, because fixing one thing while ignoring the others is how problems come back.

Our Services

  • A new unit is only as good as the home it’s going into. Before we recommend a system, we assess your home’s actual load requirements so your unit is correctly sized, not just swapped out. An oversized or undersized system costs you more every month and wears out faster than it should.

    We specialize in high-effiecency, high-SEER systems that make a real difference on your energy bill. We also offer quality options for every budget, because the goal is getting your home right, whatever that looks like for you.

    Pricing: Varies by home.

  • Ductless. Efficient. Works Where Central HVAC Can’t

    If your home has never had central HVAC, or you have a garage, workshop, sunroom, or addition that your main system can’t reach, a mini-split is often the smartest solution on the market. No ductwork required, no major renovation, and efficiency ratings that put standard systems to shame.

    Who is this good for?

    • Homes without existing ductwork

    • Garages, workshops, and detached structures

    • Additions and sunrooms that existing systems can’t reach

    • Rooms that always run too hot or too cold regardless of what the thermostat says

    • Homeowners who want high-efficiency heating and cooling without a full duct system overhaul

    Pricing: Varies based on your needs

  • Your attic is one of the biggest sources of energy loss in your home. When insulation isn’t performing, your HVAC system works overtime just to keep up, and your energy bill reflects every bit of it.

    We assess your current insulation levels, identify gaps and problem areas, and install the right solution for your home. The result is a more comfortable space that holds its temperature without making your system work harder than it has to.

    Pricing: Starting at $1.25 per sq ft. Varies based on scope

  • Air sealing addresses the gaps your HVAC system has been fighting against, plumbing and electrical penetrations, light fixtures, windows, doors, and other hidden leak points throughout your home. Closing those up reduces the conditioned air your home bleeds out every hour, which means your system runs less and your energy bill drops.

    Every air sealing job includes before and after Air Loss Testing so you can see the actual improvement, not just take our word for it. We also provide documentation on your home’s ventilation needs, which helps prevent moisture issues down the road.

    Pricing: Starting at $1.00 per sq ft.

    • Duct Sealing
      We seal individual duct takeoffs or the full system, depending on what your home needs. Every sealing job is pressure tested before and after, so you see the numbers confirming the work was done, not just an invoice saying it was.

      • Pricing: Starting at $350 (individual takeoff). Full system pricing based on scope

    • Duct Replacement
      When sealing isn’t enough, full replacement is the right call.

    • Duct Air Loss Test
      Want to know how leaky your duct system actually is before spending money on repairs? Our Duct Air Loss Test gives you before-and-after pressure readings that show exactly how tight your system is, and whether any previous work actually held up.

      • Pricing: $250 (includes blower door + duct pressure test)

  • Helping you answer, “Why is my utility bill so high?”

    Our Air Loss Test is a full diagnostic of your home’s energy performance. We use a blower door test to measure how much air your home is losing per hour, run a duct pressure test to check for leaks in your system, and walk you through the results with real numbers showing you exactly what’s driving your bill.

    • Air Loss Test (Blower Door): Starting at $150

    • Add Duct Pressure Testing: +$100 (blower door required)

    • Commercial Air Loss Testing: Pricing varies; contact us for a quote

  • Twice a Year. Every System. No Surprises.

    What’s Included: Twice a Year (Spring & Fall)

    • Precision HVAC Tune-Up
      Full system cleaning, performance check, refrigerant verification, airflow measurement, and efficiency optimization. We keep your equipment running at peak performance so it lasts longer, costs less to run, and doesn’t leave you without AC in the middle of July.

    • Whole-Home Air Loss Test (Once a Year)
      A professional blower door test to identify air leaks, comfort problems, and energy loss throughout your home. Most HVAC maintenance plans don’t include this, and that is exactly why most of them don’t move the needle on your utility bill. Air loss is the #1 driver of high energy costs in North Alabama homes, and we catch it once a year before it compounds.

    • Duct Leakage Test
      We measure how much conditioned air is escaping into your attic, crawlspace, or walls before it ever reaches your living space. We find the issue, track it, and let you know if it’s getting worse so you can stay ahead of it.

    • Insulation Performance Check
      Attic and crawlspace inspection, R-value verification, moisture check, and thermal-barrier assessment. Insulation degrades and shifts over time. We catch it before it starts costing you comfort and money season after season.

Alabama Home Performance - Decatur, AL

Experience That Shapes How We Work

We’ve spent years performing energy audits and inspecting HVAC and insulation work across the Tennessee Valley. That experience gave us a clear picture of where things go wrong, duct systems done carelessly, insulation that falls short of what the homeowner paid for, units sized for the wrong home, and running inefficiently from day one.

It’s why we built Alabama Home Performance around diagnostic testing from the start. Our Air Loss Test doesn’t leave room for guesswork; it gives you real numbers on what’s happening in your home before any work begins and confirms the results after it’s done. If you paid to have something fixed, you deserve to know it was actually fixed.

We treat every home the way we’d want ours treated. Whether you’re in Decatur, Huntsville, or anywhere across North Alabama, if you’ve been getting high energy bills with no clear answers, we’ll find out why.
