Why New Mexico's Climate Makes Ductwork Efficiency Matter
New Mexico has a cold semi-arid climate with about 64 days above 90°F per year, summer highs around 91°F, and low average humidity of 35%. In dry, extreme heat, ducts routed through attics can reach temperatures well above ambient — causing conditioned air to absorb heat before it ever reaches living spaces. Proper insulation on attic duct runs and tight sealing at all joints are the two biggest factors in keeping cooling costs under control in New Mexico's summers.How Much Does Ductwork Replacement Cost in Hillsboro?
