Diagnostic Testing with a Blower Door
- A blower door test depressurizes your home, allowing us to accurately measure its overall air leakage rate.
- This test helps our technicians locate hard-to-find leaks by making them easy to feel or detect with a smoke pencil.
- We provide a baseline measurement and a post-work test to scientifically demonstrate the improvement.
Targeting Critical Leakage Points (Attic and Basement)
- Our team focuses on stopping the "stack effect," where air enters low (basement) and exits high (attic).
- We seal attic penetrations such as plumbing stacks, electrical wiring holes, chimneys, and attic hatches.
- Foundation sill plates and rim joists in the basement are sealed with foam to block incoming cold air.
Professional Sealing Materials and Techniques
- We use high-quality, durable materials including expanding foam, caulk, and weatherstripping for long-lasting results.
- Our technicians select the right material for each specific type of gap to ensure an effective and durable seal.
