Insulation will be one of the costliest and most labor intensive part of your "Home Energy Investment". The best way to determine if it is cost-effective is to preform or have preformed an energy audit. Since all types of insulation have different "R-Values", it is important to determine the type of insulation you have and the depth of it. Sometimes it is cost-effective to take attic insulation to 14, depending on your weather climate and the cost of the material and labor. Basement: ceiling, walls, ducts, hot water pipes, steam pipes and hot water heaters in many situations need to be insulated.

There are many different types of furnaces used for heating the living areas of your home. For heat distribution you can have several different channels. First, there is the most common, "Forced Warm Air" (FWA). Heat is forced (supplied) into the home, by a blower fan, via a duct distribution system. The air then "returns" to the force through the ductwork. Old furnaces have no fan and work off of the principle that heat rises. These big barrel type furnaces are called "Gravity" furnaces or "Octopus", for the way that the ductwork looks in the basement.

Air sealing is one of the easiest way that you can save hundreds of dollars a year with just a minimum of investment. Many times you only need caulk, foam and drywall or R-Max board. Heat seeks cold and wherever you have a crack or hole, heat will be drawn out like a vacuum in the winter and drawn in the summer. These are called, "air infiltration areas". These areas are usually in the conditioned areas. Reducing the amount of air that leaks in and out of your home is a cost-effective way to cut heating and cooling costs, improve durability, increase comfort, and create a healthier indoor environment.

Home Energy Loss Professionals (H.E.L.P.), based in Baltimore, Maryland, provides residents with energy audits and offers retrofitting of products that aid in preventing energy loss. Lack of installation and aging seals can allow air conditioning and heat to escape your home, leading to much higher energy bills. Let us H.E.L.P. you save money and protect the environment!
