- Reduce energy bills by up to 30% with proper air sealing and insulation
- Improve indoor air quality and create a healthier living environment
- Increase home comfort by eliminating drafts and maintaining consistent temperatures
As a homeowner in New York City, you’re always looking for ways to improve your home’s comfort and energy efficiency. Two of the most effective solutions are air sealing and insulation. By properly sealing air leaks and adding insulation, you can drastically reduce your energy bills, improve indoor air quality, and create a more comfortable living space.
The Importance of Air Sealing
- Prevents conditioned air from escaping and unconditioned air from entering
- Reduces strain on your heating and cooling systems
- Improves indoor air quality by blocking pollutants and allergens
Air sealing is the process of identifying and sealing gaps, cracks, and holes in your home’s envelope. These openings allow conditioned air to escape and unconditioned air to enter, forcing your heating and cooling systems to work harder to maintain a comfortable temperature. By sealing these leaks, you can reduce the strain on your HVAC systems, lower your energy bills, and improve your home’s indoor air quality.

The Benefits of Proper Insulation
- Slows heat transfer, keeping your home warm in winter and cool in summer
- Reduces noise pollution for a quieter living environment
- Increases home value and marketability
Insulation works hand-in-hand with air sealing to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Proper insulation slows the transfer of heat, keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. This reduces the workload on your HVAC systems, leading to lower energy bills and a more comfortable living space. Additionally, insulation helps reduce noise pollution, creating a quieter and more peaceful home environment.
Focusing on the Attic
- Attic air sealing and insulation provide the greatest energy savings
- Prevents ice dams and moisture issues in winter
- Keeps your home cooler in summer by blocking heat transfer
When it comes to air sealing and insulation, the attic is one of the most critical areas to address. Attic air sealing prevents conditioned air from escaping through the roof, while attic insulation slows heat transfer between your living space and the outdoors. By focusing on attic air sealing and insulation, you can maximize your energy savings, prevent ice dams and moisture issues in winter, and keep your home cooler in summer.
