Whether your home is newly constructed, or in the case of many New England homes, 20 or more years old, air exchange exists in the home. While air exchange is necessary in a home, too much air exchange is an indicator that your home may be suffering from heat loss.
How can you identify where your home may be losing heat?
Often times the pathway for heat loss is complex and it is difficult to pinpoint where the home air leakage occurs. If you ask most homeowners, they would expect that their home may be losing heat through the home's windows and doors. But poor insulation (not enough insulation or insulation that has settled over time) between the home's walls, in the home's attic or basement spaces, can be a significant source for heat loss in a home.
Infrared Scans Can Identify Where Heat Loss is Occuring
Thermal imaging of your home through infrared scanning can identify "cold areas" between the home's walls and in attic and basement spaces where your home may be leaking heat. With an infrared scan of your home, you will get a visual of just where heat loss is occuring making it easy for contractors or professionals to correct the cause of the heat loss.
