Why Does My Home Need Properly Sealed?

The average American family spends over $2,000 a year just on energy costs. Unfortunately, many of those hard-earned dollars literally slip out of your home through gaps, cracks, and penetrations in the building’s envelope or shell. Improper sealing around your home’s doors and windows leads to inefficiencies and a lot of wasted money!

Scheduling a home energy assessment with DiBiase Heating and Cooling will allow us to locate exactly where your home is leaking money. Curing your drafts will not only save you money, but also create a safer environment for you and your family. Proper Air Sealing can keep excess moisture out of your home, reducing the chances of mold and mildew, while also improving your indoor air quality by reducing the likelihood of pollutants and allergens from entering your home.
