Denver Metro home air sealing

Along with getting an energy audit, air sealing is not only one of the most inexpensive projects but can also have the biggest impact in terms of comfort and energy savings.

Along with insulation upgrades, we can provide hundreds of dollars in rebates from Xcel Energy as an approved contractor, along with possibly some other local utilities, cities, and counties around Colorado.

Why get air sealing done?

It’s true that many don’t consider air sealing work as sexy as solar, new windows, or other projects that you can see.

But after doing an energy audit, it is the most important thing you can do to potentially save thousands, or even tens of thousands of dollars by doing things the right way, especially when you want to do much more expensive energy projects afterward.

Here are just some of the benefits of air sealing:

  • It helps stop the drafts and airflow through the home.
  • Leads to lower utility bills.
  • More evenly distributes the air – fewer hot and cold spots.
  • Less HVAC maintenance costs because it usually can run less.
  • Healthier air management and control over outside air infiltration.
  • Better home durability.

did you know?

Air sealing is probably the best bang-for-the-buck efficiency project you can do, but it’s even more powerful when combined with a good insulation plan.

This is because air sealing helps keep your conditioned air inside the home for longer, while insulation helps slow down your heating (winter) or cooling loss (summer). The benefits of doing both are many:

  • More comfort in your home
  • Lower energy bills
  • Sets you up perfectly for a great home electrification plan
  • Helps new heat pumps work less hard, and more efficiently, while increasing equipment longevity.
  • Allows for a smaller solar panel system because you don’t need to create as much power in the first place.
  • Allows you to maximize local rebates, like Xcel’s Whole Home Efficiency 25% bonus rebate program.
  • Much more
FAQ

do you have a question?

We’ll try to answer the most common ones here, but if you don’t find your answer, please reach out! 

Air sealing costs can be as little as a few hundred dollars to many thousands. It really depends on your individual home needs, what the energy audit report tells us, and really just how much work is needed to get your home to a good level. Every home is different, and so are your individual goals! We take both into account.

We sure do! You can fill out our contact form here or give us a call. The more detail the better so we can save you time, and we may not even need to go out to your home if we can do a video call or have a few pictures.

In order to get Xcel Energy rebates, and especially the 25% bonus rebate, Xcel requires us to start with a BPI-Certified energy audit.

Not by itself, but it’s one of the first and major steps. To make any kind of impact, we have to most likely do some insulation upgrades as well. We present the projects that are likely to make a difference after our energy audit, and you can pick and choose what you like. We’re all about a holistic approach and what makes sense in your household and what’s within your budget.
