DO YOU HAVE AN AIR LEAK?
Stark Leak Detection can help you determine the best way to save energy by detecting air leaks. When you seal attics, windows, basements and more, you’ll reduce your energy costs significantly. An undected leak can be the equivalent of an open window, even when all the windows are shut.
COMMON AREAS OF AIR LEAKING
Joints: Small gaps often exist where one part of your house connects to another. Wood can shrink, materials can expand and contract at different rates, and connections can come loose.
Insulation: Sealing the surface first before insulating – insulation will not stop air flow! To make matters worse, air leaks are now buried underneath the insulation making them harder to reach.
Contractors: Electricians, HVAC contractors, and plumbers drill and saw their way through floors, walls and ceilings, and create channels for wires, heating ducts, water lines, and more that run throughout the house. This results in a network of leakage points that can let air move in and out.
