Retro-Fitting

One way to markedly enhance the effectiveness of a home’s insulation conveniently and affordably is by providing the home with a better insulating “seal.” This is the reason “retro-fitting” a home’s existing insulation is growing in popularity.

It has long been known that many otherwise well insulated buildings were poorly sealed or had become poorly sealed as they were modified and aged. And that the lack of a proper seal was a leading cause of air leakage in and out of buildings.

Approximately 40% of all air leaks are in your attic. An uninsulated basement can account for as much as 25% heat loss while exterior walls account for around 15%. This air leakage results in wasted energy, and other moisture problems in most building/homes. But only recently has it become possible to address this problem without significant and costly renovations.
