Audits & Energy Improvements
Your home works as a system
From your attic to your basement there are many different factors that impact the comfort and efficiency of your home. Often homeowners try to impact their energy efficiency and home comfort with fixes that only partially work or don’t work at all. If you went to the doctor with an ache in your leg, he likely would order some tests to try to isolate what is causing the problem. Your home is a complex structure that often exhibits “aches” that are hard to diagnose. To properly diagnose your home’s “aches”, testing is the best way to isolate what is causing the problem. Mountain Air offers home energy audits that can help you isolate your energy problems, and correct them.
So what is our home performance analysis?
Our Home Performance Analysis is a comprehensive analysis of your home’s current energy efficiency features. We then generate a report that will recommend all of the steps necessary to improve the overall energy efficiency and comfort level of your home. It will include an estimate for Mountain Air to install all improvements, or if you choose to do some or all of the improvements yourself we can do a post evaluation for you.

Air Sealing
There are multiple places in your home that may be letting outside air seep in. This unwanted infiltration makes your furnace or air conditioner less effective, creating higher energy costs. Utilizing the latest in one and two part foams, our installation technicians will ensure a complete sealing for all those openings.
Insulation
Inadequate insulation is one of the leading causes of energy loss in both newer and older homes. Our technicians can dense pack insulate your soffits, sidewalls, and garage ceilings, as well as add to the insulation in your attic.
Crawl Space Vapor Barriers
Dirt crawl space floors can expose your home to dust, moisture, and potential radon gas. Installing a vapor barrier in your crawl space will reduce the potential hazards and improve the comfort level of the floors above.
