Weatherization

Insulation is not the whole story for energy conservation! Even if your home is well insulated, energy may be wasted through air infiltration. Air can leak around doors and windows, foundations, and exterior plumbing. Repairing or adding caulking and weatherstripping is a simple and inexpensive way to improve the energy efficiency of your home. By reducing air leakage, you will reduce your energy costs, make your home more comfortable, and help improve the environment. In fact, the cost of caulking and weatherstripping can usually be paid back in energy savings in less than one year. This makes weatherizing one of your best investments in energy conservation.
