Don't look now
but your house
mJ, y be leaking
W hile you might enjoy a cool breeze
wafting through the cracks in your house in
the summer, you'll enjoy it less when you
start to see your breath. That's when it's time
to find those leaks and seal them.
Up to 40 percent of the average home's fuel
bill pays to heat escaping air: Most homes
experience air changes, drafty homes more
so than wellsealed houses. In each air
change, warm inside air is replaced by cold
outside air working its way through cracks,
openings around doors and windows and
other improperly sealed spots. To find and
plug some of the leaks could translate into a
10 to 15 percent saving on fuel bills. Sealing
leaks is probably the most cost-effective
home energy conservation measure there is.
Armed with that incentive, how do you find
the leaky culprits? One way is to hire an
energy professional to conduct a home
pressure test. In this test, windows and other
openings are closed. The air inside the house
is sucked out by a large fan placed in an open
doorway. W ith the house depressurized, the
drafty areas are easier to detect because the
air swooshes in from the outside to fill the
vacuum -like space.
Although that sounds interesting, a much
simpler method is the do-it-yourself smoke
test. Explore your house on a windy day with
a burning stick of incense. Hold it in front of
closed doors, windows, electrical outlets,
baseboards and ether potentially drafty
spots. If the smoke wavers, seal the space.
Once the leaks are found, it's time to caulk
and weatherstrip. Caulking is used to fill
fixed joints -- two surfaces that meet hut do
not • move. This includes windowframes.
