KMS Woodworks on Mar 28, 2012If you are trying to "tighten up" your home you will need to look at more than just the windows and doors. Crawl / attic space penetrations etc should also be sealed up for better energy savings. One way to test the effects of these efforts is to get a blower door test performed. This can give you a baseline to work from. These tests are often part of a more thorough home energy audit.Helpful Reply
