After the duct leakage test

If your ductwork needs sealing, Gills Indoor Air Quality seals the leaks and conducts a second duct leakage test to determine the reduction.

Air sealing

Sealing the shell of your home— walls, doors, ceiling, windows and floors—from air leaks is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to increase comfort and energy efficiency. Sealing air leaks reduces drafts, controls moisture, keeps out pollutants and improves overall comfort.

Many air leaks and drafts are easy to find because they are easy to feel, like those around doors and windows. However, hiring Gills to perform a Blower Door test, which pressurizes and depressurizes your home to measure air leakage, can save you money and save energy.

Insulation

Properly insulating your floors, walls and attic keeps you comfortable throughout the year, reduces your heating and cooling costs, reduces outside noise,and saves you energy. Before beginning an insulation project, it’s recommended that you have Gills Indoor Air Quality perform an air leakage test and seal any air leaks in your home to maximize the performance of your insulation.
