Importance of Air Sealing

Air leaks cost money. The EPA reports that as much as 40% of residential heating and cooling costs may be due to air leaks in homes. And in older homes that number can climb even higher.

Air sealing combats this problem by reducing the amount of heat which escapes from the home as a result of air movement. The results are energy savings and increased comfort.

Trained home energy auditors from Home Repair Services help lower-income homeowners find and seal air leaks, saving money and energy.  We are currently accepting applications from qualifying Kent County homeowners.
