Quick answer
San Bernardino ductwork pricing: sealing only $400-$1,200, return upsize $400-$1,500, full replacement $25-$55 per linear foot ($2,500-$8,500 typical 80-200 ft layout). Older Arrowhead, North Park, central San Bernardino homes commonly need return upsize or full replacement.
Why this matters in San Bernardino
San Bernardino ductwork problems concentrate in older Arrowhead, North Park, and central San Bernardino homes from the 1950s-1980s. Common patterns: undersized return ducts (system was sized for low-static furnace + low-SEER AC, modern equipment cannot move enough air), failed insulation in attic-mounted ducts, mastic joint failures, and rodent contamination in long-vacant or older properties. Newer North End and Verdemont tract homes (1990s+) have R-6 to R-8 insulated flex ducts that mostly hold up, though supply boot sealing failures are still common. We measure return static pressure on every diagnostic — anything above 0.5" w.c. on the return side indicates undersized ducts.
Local challenges
Return-duct upsizing is the most common San Bernardino ductwork fix in older homes. Cost typically $400-$1,500 as a separate line item. Full replacement makes sense when existing ducts are degraded across the whole system. We use R-8 insulated flex on attic runs — exceeds code minimum and holds up better in summer attic temperatures (130-150°F). Permits pulled when scope warrants AHJ inspection. The 30-minute drive from Hesperia means same-day capacity for ductwork diagnostic + scoping is high — usually we can fit Riverside-area ductwork calls in alongside HD dispatches.

My rental agency setup services with JC Energy. Job was completed in a timely matter, and I liked the fact that they send over a picture of the person who will be completing your service so you know who to expect knocking at your door!

JC Energy Solutions is a pleasure to work with. They arrived on time, did great work, and finished before the estimated completion time. They were professional and paid careful attention to detail. They also left the worksite clean.
