Air Sealing Photo Album: Air Sealing Attic in Marlboro, NJ
This homeowner in Marlboro, NJ had an attic that was not properly air sealed. The ¼ to ½ inch gaps in the attic floors sill plate or top plate are not air sealed. Gaps and holes from wires or pipes can all add up. These open holes and gaps are leaking conditioned air into the attic. Essentially this means the homeowner is paying more for their energy bills because of these leaks. Our crew used orange ZypFoam sealant on the gaps and holes to properly air seal the attic. This homeowner now has a more comfortable and energy efficient home.
