00:08 the tenth question that's commonly asked
00:11 is is a new duck system better than an
00:14 old duck system I would tell you that in
00:17 my opinion a new duct system done right
00:20 is better than an old duck system most
00:23 most old duck systems have an r-value
00:25 for the insulation of one point five to
00:29 maybe four point three today's duck
00:31 systems have an r-value of six and an
00:34 r-value of eight depending on what type
00:36 of ductwork you get if you can keep the
00:39 heat out of the duct system for longer
00:41 makes the system more efficient it's
00:43 less hot in cool drafts that you're
00:45 getting before the equipment comes on
00:47 and it's just overall better plus with
00:50 the newer design duct systems the flow
00:52 through the system is better than the
00:54 older design systems and that's gonna
00:56 make the house more comfortable so in my
00:58 opinion I would tell you yes that a new
01:00 duct system is going to be better than
01:02 an old duck system
