Air Sealing

Your heated air could be leaking out through the cracks in your home. Be sure to air seal when you insulate to create both a thermal and air barrier to prevent heat leakage and drafts. Cold air coming in through the lower part of your home drives heated air out the top of your home.

Common Sources of Air Leaks

  • Plumbing
  • Electrical Wires
  • Top plates
  • Bottom Plates
  • Band joist
  • Light fixtures
  • Attic Hatches
  • Pull down stairs
  • Windows
  • Doors
  • Kneewall openings
  • Chimneys
  • Pipes
  • Foundation Cracks

Seal up your home to prevent drafts and heat loss

The dirt on the batt shows where air leakage occurs. Air escapes where ever two pieces of wood meet.
By foaming these cracks the air infiltration rate will diminish. Insulation is still needed to reduce heat loss.

Air Sealing Includes:

Foaming around pipes, wires, top plates and any other attic penetrations. Weather striping and insulating around doors, hatches, attic openings etc. Conducting a blower door test before and after air sealing to check air infiltration rates. Airsealing can be customized further to your home’s needs.

Air Sealing is an important step in making your home more energy efficient. Air sealing works with insulation in creating a full enclosed envelope around the conditioned air spaces in your home. Call us today for us to come and check your air infiltration rate.
