Different Comfort Issues That Weatherization Can Help With

Indoor drafts

Chilly indoor drafts in the winter can make it feel like a window is open, even if it’s not. This is often caused by air leaks—small cracks or gaps—in your home, and not by old windows. CAC’s weatherization services will improve your indoor comfort better than window replacement by closing these holes to stop outdoor air from entering.

Rooms or floors that are colder or hotter than others

A home that isn’t well insulated and air sealed can result in uneven indoor temperatures. You may have one room or area of your house that’s always too hot or too cold, or differences in temperature between floors.

Temperature problems can also be the result of a heating and cooling system that’s too old or worn out to work properly.

Upgraded insulation from CAC can help create more consistent indoor temperatures, while a repaired or new heating and cooling system can help make your whole home comfortable.

Cold floors in the morning

Cold floorboards are another sign of poor insulation and air leaks that allow cold air and temperatures into your basement or crawl space. By taking advantage of CAC’s weatherization program, you can avoid this issue.

Noise pollution

Noise plays a big role in how comfortable you feel in your house. Better insulation and air sealing can minimize outdoor sounds, while fixing or replacing your heating and cooling can reduce the noise of your system running. All of these create more peace and quiet indoors.
