Air Sealing

What is it?

Air sealing involves identifying and closing gaps, cracks, and openings in a home’s building envelope to prevent uncontrolled airflow. This process is essential for improving energy efficiency, enhancing indoor comfort, and maintaining a healthy indoor environment.

Benefits?

  1. Improved Energy Efficiency:
    • Reduced Heat Loss: Sealing gaps prevents warm air from escaping in the winter, reducing the need for heating and lowering energy bills.
    • Reduced Heat Gain: In the summer, air sealing keeps cool air inside, reducing the workload on air conditioning systems and saving on cooling costs.
  2. Enhanced Comfort:
    • Eliminating Drafts: Air sealing eliminates drafts and cold spots, creating a more comfortable living environment.
    • Consistent Temperatures: Ensuring consistent indoor temperatures improves overall comfort throughout the home.
  3. Cost Savings:
    • Lower Utility Bills: By reducing the amount of energy needed for heating and cooling, air sealing results in significant savings on utility bills.
    • Increased HVAC Efficiency: Reduced strain on heating and cooling systems can lower maintenance costs and extend the lifespan of HVAC equipment.
  4. Improved Indoor Air Quality:
    • Contaminant Reduction: Sealing air leaks prevents outdoor pollutants, dust, and allergens from entering the home, improving indoor air quality.
    • Moisture Control: Proper air sealing helps control moisture levels, reducing the risk of mold growth and related health issues.
  5. Environmental Benefits:
    • Energy Conservation: By reducing energy consumption, air sealing contributes to lower greenhouse gas emissions and a smaller carbon footprint.
    • Sustainable Living: Improved energy efficiency supports sustainable living practices and reduces reliance on non-renewable energy sources.
  6. Enhanced Home Durability:
    • Preventing Damage: Air sealing helps prevent moisture intrusion, which causes structural damage, rot, and mold growth.
    • Protecting Insulation: Keeps insulation dry and effective by preventing air and moisture infiltration enhances its performance and longevity.
