insulation - Even in homes that are a few

learn there are areas of the home that are
under-insulated,

hydro and energy bills One of the biggest
energy wasters are air leaks around doors,
windows, joists, and other areas within the home.

Finding these and sealing them up using the
appropriate methods, will keep outdoor air
outside and cooled or heated indoor air within
the home.

Once problems have been identified and
improvements made, besides helping lower your
energy usage, two additional benefits gained are
increasing the value of your home and making your
home marketable, should you decide to sell it.

According to real estate professionals, for every
1 reduction in energy usage, on average it
increases the value of the home around 20. For
instance, if you reduce your energy bills by 500
annually,

your homes value increases as much as 10,000!
(Please keep in mind this is just an average and
actual increases in value are influenced by a
number of factors including current market
conditions.)

levels within your home year round. This can also
help reduce other energy costs. For example,

if your home previously had cold spots, you may
have put on sweaters and extra clothes to stay
warm, increasing the amount of dirty clothing you
had to launder, which meant you were using more
energy.
