Seal the Savings — Detect & Fix Air Leaks


How To:

1. On a cold day, walk your home with a lit incense stick or candle — move it near window frames and baseboards.

2. If the smoke wavers, there’s a leak.

3. Apply weatherstripping around windows and caulk gaps around door frames or vents.

4. For outlets on exterior walls, install foam gasket covers behind faceplates.


Result: You’ll keep warm air in, cold air out, and save up to 15% on energy costs!
