Air leaks can make your home uncomfortable. During the cold Ohio winter you may experience drafty windows and doors, cold walls or ceilings, and ice buildup. In the summer you may experience uncomfortably hot ceilings or rooms, no matter how low the A/C is set. All of these examples are symptoms of air leaks or poor insulation.
There are many ways to fix air leaks, such as caulking, using spray foam, and weather stripping smaller cracks and gaps. Plywood, drywall and rigid foam insulation may be used for plugging larger holes. Sheet metal and high-temperature caulking can be used to close gaps around chimneys and furnace flues.
