A leaky home wastes energy and introduces pollutants into the home from your crawlspace or attic. A well sealed home will improve the indoor air quality and give you more control of the indoor environment. Using a blower door, zonal pressure testing, and an infrared camera, can pinpoint those leaks in your home that need to be air sealed.

Duct systems often leak in excess of 20%. Duct leakage contributes to higher dust levels in the home, higher utility bills, and longer equipment run times. Leaky ducts also reduce air quality because the leaks can pull air from attics or crawl spaces . Having your ducts sealed is a great way to improve the comfort and efficiency of your home, and longevity of your heating and cooling system.

Your HVAC system is rated to operate at a certain pressure. That pressure is similar to blood pressure in the human body. High static pressure can lead to system inefficiency, shortened equipment lifespan, and higher energy bills. Oftentimes, high static pressure is caused by poor duct design or improper system installation. BHP can test your system to identify any static pressure problems. We can also check and balance individual room airflows if there are temperature variations in the home.

A thorough energy audit can help you identify opportunities for improvement. BHP can help you prioritize which upgrades should be performed based on their return on investment and other benefits each item provides. The ROI on air sealing and insulation is usually less than 5 years, while the ROI for windows is usually decades.

BHP can identify and seal the leaks in your home to improve energy efficiency and indoor air quality. Our team uses testing methods to locate and seal any air leaks, providing a quick and cost-effective solution that requires no maintenance. Air sealing is a one-time, inexpensive upgrade that can provide a faster return on investment than other home improvement projects, such as new windows or HVAC upgrades.
