Energy Loss Through Crawl Spaces

A Fort Collins home energy audit isn't complete with no trip underneath the floor. You will find home energy secrets underneath the floor just waiting to become discovered - things that should be considered before a real determination can be created regarding energy waste and savings.

Entering a crawl space is much like entering a contaminated cavity of unknown challenges. This jogs my memory of 1 reason I'm not a dental professional. A real Fort Collins insulation company suits track of protective clothes, mask, mitts, hat, and shoes. The smart leave their glasses, mobile phones, apple ipods, cameras, along with other belongings behind least you won't ever discover their whereabouts again. Lost at nighttime and moist where batteries melt and electronic devices turn rust colored.

The area underneath the floor is extremely unfriendly except to individuals animals which have four legs rather than two. There is not a pet roaming the area that will not enjoy being beneath your ft on the cold winters evening. Burrowing in to the insulation or trying to catch up with to some warm heating duct, the creature isn't worried about shredded insulation, holes in heating ductwork, wasted energy, or perhaps your exhausted pocketbook.

A crawl space is a superb club house - a location to obtain warm, hideout, meet your buddies and use the bathroom.

Creatures get access to the crawl space through guy made openings:
  1. The outdoors foundation access having a door that merely doesn't close completely and
  2. The building blocks vents which have lost their plastic flappers and also have large holes within the fine wire mesh.

The wire mesh is built to let air go through therefore the space can breath. It is important the space has enough ventilation. With damaged or missing screens, besides air go through the vent, but every person in the feral community does too. Creatures within the crawl space is energy inefficient. And, simply to be useful, individuals same creatures, whenever you go into the crawl space to correct the harm, leave little aromatic memory joggers of the have to get rid of the outcomes of a digested mouse or two.

The healthy, energy-efficient crawl space has only five things inside it.
  • Cold and hot water lines.
  • Drainpipes for that waste water.
  • Heating ductwork
  • Insulation
  • And black visqueen since the ground.

REenergize CO, a company from Denver Colorado has expanded their energy audit and insulation services to Loveland, Colorado.  The Colorado company has been offering their home efficiency testing since 2006 to homes and small business in the Denver metro.

Attic Insulation
Attic insulation keeps your home warm in winter and cool in the summer. As heat rises in your home it naturally moves to cooler areas and places where temperature differences are measurable. By insulating your attic spaces you provide resistance to heat flow ensuring that heated or cooled air remains in the interior and isn't escaping through your ceiling and roof. Inadequate insulation, gaps and leaks in your home will cause your heating and cooling system to run longer and more often in order to maintain temperature in your home. As a result, your furnace or air conditioner will consume more energy which results in higher energy bills. Proper Attic insulation saves you money year after year; over time helping to pay for itself in lower heating and cooling costs. 

Ductwork Sealing
Home improvement experts use the patented Aeroseal sealing process which is the most effective, affordable, and viable method of sealing central heating & cooling and ventilation ductwork in residential homes. This process is clean, safe, and guaranteed for 10 years.  Aeroseal Duct Sealing technology is a patented breakthrough that fixes leaks in your ductwork from the inside out. The correction process causes polymer particles to stick to the edges of a leak and then stick to each other until the leak is closed.
