Unconditioned Spaces: Sources of Energy Loss

by Travis 19. December 2008 13:23
One significant source of energy loss that is often overlooked occurs in unconditioned spaces. These spaces include areas such as attics, garages, and crawlspaces. Ducts that run through these areas can experience significant energy loss, both in the form of cool air running through a hot space and heated air running through a cool space. A simple solution to this problem of energy loss comes with sealing and insulating the ducts that run through unconditioned spaces. This easy task can improve both the comfort of your home and reduce energy costs at the same time. Visit www.energystar.gov for additional information.
