Reduce Your Heating Bills This Winter - Overlooked Sources of Heat Loss in the Home

Written by Mark D. Tyrol, P.E., www.batticdoor.com

Imagine leaving a window open all winter long – repparttar

heat loss, cold drafts, and wasted energy! Well if your home has a folding attic stair, a fireplace, and/or a clothes dryer, that may be just what is occurring in your home! These often overlooked sources of heat loss and air leakage can cause your heat pour out and repparttar 100077

cold outside air pour in – costing you higher heating bills, causing cold drafts, and wasting energy. Air leaks are repparttar 100078

largest source of heating and cooling loss in repparttar 100079

home. Air leaks occur through repparttar 100080

small cracks around doors, windows, pipes, etc. We apply caulk and weatherstripping to these areas to minimize heat loss and cold drafts. But what can you do about repparttar 100081

three largest “holes” in your home – repparttar 100082

folding attic stair, repparttar 100083

fireplace, and repparttar 100084

clothes dryer? Here are some tips and techniques that can easily, quickly and inexpensively seal and insulate these holes. Attic Stairs:

Do you have a folding attic stairway in your house? When attic stairs are installed, a large hole (approximately 10 square feet!) is created in your ceiling. The ceiling and insulation that were there have to be removed. And what is installed to cover this opening? A thin, unsealed, un-insulated sheet of plywood!

Did you know that your attic space is ventilated directly to repparttar 100085 outdoors? In repparttar 100086 winter, repparttar 100087 attic space can be very cold, and in repparttar 100088 summer it can be very hot. And what is separating your conditioned house from your unconditioned attic? That thin sheet of plywood!

Often a gap can be observed around repparttar 100089 perimeter of repparttar 100090 door. Try this yourself: at night when it is dark, turn on repparttar 100091 attic light and shut repparttar 100092 attic stairway door - do you see any light coming through? These are gaps - which add up to a large opening where your heated/cooled air leaks out 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year! This is like leaving a window open all year round!

An easy, low-cost solution to this problem is to add an attic stair cover. An attic stair cover provides an air seal, reducing repparttar 100093 air leaks. Add repparttar 100094 desired amount of insulation over repparttar 100095 cover to restore repparttar 100096 insulation removed from repparttar 100097 ceiling. Fireplaces: Approximately 100 million homes in North America are constructed with wood or gas burning fireplaces. Unfortunately there are negative side effects that repparttar 100098 fireplace brings to a home especially during repparttar 100099 winter home-heating season. Fireplaces are energy losers! Researchers have studied this to determine repparttar 100100 amount of heat loss through a fireplace, and repparttar 100101 results are amazing! One remarkable research study showed that an open damper on an unused fireplace in a well-insulated house can raise overall heating energy consumption by 30%!
