Is $350 to replace a problematic duct line causing condensation a fair price?
Project Details
I'm really at the end of my rope here. I've had a duct that's been having a ton of condensation for a hot minute now, probably about a year. The condensation drips down the line and directly into the master bedroom's closet, my wife had noticed this. I ended up with a new unit, but the duct was still sweating after I replaced the unit. Problem is no one is giving me a real straight answer and I'm really frustrated and confused. Although I did end up contacting an insulation business and having them do some blow in cause ours wasn't where it should've been. This is making me wanna tear my hair out. The problematic area is like a little crawl space behind a linen closet and an interior wall, and it's very humid.
