Watch this video to see how air sealing and insulating your home can increase energy efficiency.

Sealing air leaks in your home is a simple, cost-effective way to lower heating and cooling costs, increase comfort, and create a healthier indoor environment. Heat can find its way out of the home through a wide variety of gaps, cracks, and holes. With our blower door test and Whole Home Energy Audit, we can quantify how much air is leaking out of your house and pinpoint the location of those leaks.

From the attic to the basement, GSM Services can locate and seal air leaks all throughout the home. If you're interested in having us diagnose your home, call or e-mail us today! We proudly offer our services in Charlotte, Huntersville, Gastonia, Mount Holly, Belmont, Clover, Fort Mill, and many areas throughout North Carolina.

Common sources of air leakage

  • Plumbing and wiring penetrations through floors, walls and ceilings
  • Around chimney passes
  • Attic access hatches, doors and drop-down stairs
  • Around recessed lights and fans
  • Around windows and exterior doors
  • Cracks, gaps & holes in drywall or plaster
  • Around electrical outlets and switches
  • Sump pump holes
  • Bath fans
  • Leaky basement windows
  • Rim joists in the basement or crawl space

Air sealing and insulation go hand-in-hand

It's important to note that neither insulation nor air sealing alone are enough to reduce heat flow. Air sealing should always be done before insulation is installed. As part of our air sealing strategy, we air seal the attic space first (this is where the most significant leakage occurs). The basement and crawl space areas are our second priority. Air sealing these spaces eliminates a major source of cold air infiltration.

Fiberglass insulation is too light to stop air leakage, however, air sealing and insulation upgrades from GSM Services can possibly cut your heating and cooling costs in half.

Start saving energy and money with an air-sealing upgrade

GSM Services technicians can perform a second blower door test when the air sealing work is done. The lower leakage rating confirms that you have a more airtight home with enhanced energy performance, greater comfort, and lasting savings on your heating and cooling bills.
