RCD Corporation® Mastics are air duct sealants that save energy by sealing leaking air conditioning, heating, and HVAC air ducts in forced air heating and cooling systems. Central air conditioning and heating systems move conditioned air through air ducts. Leaks in these systems waste energy, money, and reduce indoor air quality. Repairing and sealing sheet metal ducts, flexible ducts, fiberglass duct board, and crawl spaces with RCD Corporation® adhesives, mastics, and insulation coatings improves indoor air quality, saves energy, electricity, money, and reduces carbon emissions. Professional Air Conditioning, Heating, Mechanical, and Weatherization Contractors and Technicians depend on RCD products every day.
RCD Corporation® duct mastics are weather resistant and easy to use. Sealing duct leaks in single and multi-family dwellings, offices, hospitals, high rises, government and military buildings improves indoor air quality and comfort and saves electricity.
RCD Mastics, adhesives, and weather barrier coatings are considered green building products. They’re water-borne, release minimal pollutants, reduce heating and cooling loads, block the introduction, development or spread of indoor contaminants, contain recycled materials and are packaged in recyclable plastic containers.
Home weatherization assistance programs (WAP) exist in almost every community in the United States. Sealing air ducts, doors, windows, and the thermal envelope are vital components of these programs. Other components include installing insulation and energy efficient heat pumps. Weatherization is not limited to residential construction. Offices, hospitals, stores, and commercial buildings also benefit from the same techniques used in home weatherization. Blower door testing provides a method to quantify and pin point air leakage in almost any structure.
