The New Normal…Comfort, Health, and Safety

Imagine your home’s temperature staying at a constant comfortable temperature year-round. Sounds like the future, no it’s here right now, and that home will cost you less to operate every month, and every year. Most homes have attics, and those attics are a very hostile environment. Summertime temperatures can rise to 130 degrees plus, and in the wintertime those same attics are freezing cold.
It’s estimated, that most air delivery ducts, leak on average 30 percent plus, and real old ones or low-quality air-ducts can leak as high as 47 percent. Much of your cooled conditioned air, is never reaching the rooms you need to be cooled, and in the winter, the opposite happens when the warm air is lost through leaking air-ducts. The loss of efficiency can translate to higher utility bills each month resulting in thousands of dollars lost each year. Yes, you can do something about that, and you can do it now. Also, the savings each month will go a long way in paying for those improvements.
The next weakest area of your home is the lack of proper insulation. When energy was cheap, it was considered ok to use as much electricity, and burn as much gas as needed. With energy cost increasing each year, those days are gone forever. The best comparison is the same reason we buy cars that get over 25 to 35 miles per gallon.
