Did you know that the median age of an owner-occupied home in Massachusetts is about 60 years old? No wonder you might be feeling like updates are in order!
Weatherizing your home is one way you can help prevent small air leaks from growing into big problems and reduce the load on your heating and cooling systems. A better sealed, more insulated home will save you money on operating costs and reduce your carbon emissions throughout the year. Air-sealing and insulating your home are also crucial steps to take before you install a new clean energy system.
- Air-sealing your home, and sealing and insulating ductwork, ensures that there are as few gaps as possible for indoor hot air to escape and cold outdoor air to get in. This reduces the heating load in a home.
- Adding insulation is another important step: it slows heat transfer from the inside of your house to the outside.
