When I first discovered Energy Retrofit Services, I wasn’t sure what to expect.
I had been considering getting our beach home checked for lost energy plus I heard they had companies who specialize in creating Energy Retrofit Services for homeowners. Energy Retrofit Services might be things like air sealing, insulation, crawlspace retrofits plus other miscellaneous energy retrofits. A retrofit is simply putting in a component or an accessory to something that did not have that component or accessory when it was created. Air sealing is part of the Energy Retrofit Services. Air sealing cuts down on the amount of outside air infiltrating into your home. By getting Energy Retrofit air sealing the beach home will improve in both comfort plus energy efficiency. With air sealing plus new insulation the result is likely to be a tighter structure that wastes less energy when heating plus cooling the edifice. They can also do a blower door test which is able to determine where the energy leakage is, in the edifice. Expanding foam plus high-quality sealants assist in giving long-term results in energy savings in your home. When it comes to crawl space retrofits, there can be problems but all can be fixed to give significant energy savings plus to improve the air quality of the edifice. The most regular problems with crawl spaces is that they have too much moisture, energy loss plus toxic ground gases from entering the home. By getting an Energy Retrofit Service to the crawl space, the air quality is likely to get better plus gives a healthier plus more comfortable living part to the homeowner. When Energy Retrofit Services are undertaken, they also install new weather-stripping, replace an energy inefficient bath fan plus improve the attic access.
