Power of Green Gear up for winter: Hidden gaps and cracks in a home can add up to as much airflow as an open window! The more heat that escapes, the more cold air enters, causing your system to work harder and use more energy. Sealing your home can save up to 10% in energy costs. Start by sealing air leaks and adding insulation--pay special attention to your attic and basement, where the biggest gaps and cracks are found.
