HVAC ductwork and insulation assessment without professionals is a hardware problem in Home & DIY. It has a heat score of 25 (demand) and competition score of 39 (existing solutions), creating an opportunity score of 32.6.
Homeowners notice uneven heating/cooling but can't identify if the problem is ductwork, insulation, or equipment issues. Professional energy audits cost $300-500. They lack affordable tools or guides to diagnose duct leaks, missing insulation, or blocked vents. This leads to inefficient systems running longer and higher utility bills.
