How does one locate a leak in a forced air heating/ac residential system? Not even sure if this is the place to post this question.
I'm in the SW - 60deg F during the day and 40s at night. I maintain a steady 70 deg F inside but when I put my head in the attic it must have been close to 100degF. This seems excessive to me. I visually inspected all the ducts and joints and even used a small flag on a piece of wire to help detect air currents and leaks. Have found nothing. I'm not a smoker and do not want to bring fire of any kind into the attic.
I know a $150 per month gas heating bill is nothing to most of you - on the other hand I would like to cut it in half if possible .
Thanks in advance.
