AIR SEALING

Air leakage is probably the biggest obstacle to having an energy-efficient home or place of business. Air leakage occurs when the outside air changes place with the conditioned air inside your home. When you’re trying to cool your home, the hot, outside air gets in and the cool air – that you paid to cool – escapes. Similarly, in the winter, you end up paying to “heat the outdoors!” To resolve this, you can apply air sealing techniques to prevent this costly exchange.

There are upwards of 18 different trouble spots in a typical home that have been identified. Anything from ducts and attic access to porch roofs and chimney shafts. Even basements can be a source of considerable energy loss. With air sealing, we can help prevent the loss of energy and improve the overall efficiency of your home or place of business.
