Improves Energy Efficiency: By sealing leaks, homes can maintain a consistent temperature, reducing the need for heating and cooling systems to work overtime. This not only conserves energy but also extends the lifespan of HVAC equipment by reducing strain.
Homeowners can save significantly on their energy bills, as less energy is wasted through leaks. In many cases, air sealing can reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 20%, making it a smart financial decision.
Proper air sealing minimizes drafts and cold spots, creating a more comfortable living environment. This is especially important in Avondale, where temperature swings can make unsealed homes uncomfortable.
Sealing gaps prevents outdoor pollutants, dust, and allergens from entering the home, contributing to a healthier indoor environment.
By controlling moisture infiltration, air sealing helps prevent mold growth and structural damage caused by excess humidity.
Air sealing involves several techniques and materials designed to close gaps and cracks in a home’s structure. The process typically includes the use of caulking, weatherstripping, and spray foam insulation to effectively seal areas where air can escape or enter. These materials are chosen based on the size and location of the gaps, as well as the specific needs of the home.
Before we quote any work, our technicians conduct a full visual assessment of your attic. We document existing insulation levels, identify contamination or damage, locate all penetrations, and use thermal readings to pinpoint problem areas. This inspection is always free because you deserve to know exactly what you're dealing with.
Air sealing can only be done properly on a clean attic floor. If your existing insulation is covering the penetrations we need to seal or if it's contaminated by rodents, moisture, or age we remove it first. Our insulation removal service runs $1.20/sqft and ensures we can access every gap and crack.
With the attic floor exposed, our technicians systematically seal all identified bypasses using professional-grade expanding foam and appropriate sealants. We work methodically from one end of the attic to the other, ensuring nothing is missed.
Once sealed, your attic is ready for properly installed insulation that will actually perform. We recommend blown-in fiberglass to R-38 or R-49 depending on your goals and existing conditions.
