Certain home problems usually point to poor energy efficiency. If you don\u2019t identify and deal with them, you\u2019d be paying more on your utilities than you should be.<\/p>\n

\"Poor<\/strong><\/p>\n

In today\u2019s post, All States Home Improvement shares the most common home problems that result in energy inefficiency. Pay attention to these red flags and tackle the necessary home improvement in Wichita,KS<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Ice Damming<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ice dams happen when the plane of your roof is warmer than the eaves. The snow melts flow all the way to the edges and refreezes due to the change in temperature. The hot air in the attic is the number culprit.<\/p>\n

Ice damming has many quick fixes but only a few real cures; one of them is proper ventilation. Expelling the warm air in the attic space helps keep the underside of your roof cool. In turn, the snowmelt wouldn\u2019t freeze when it reaches the eaves.<\/p>\n

Our team can perform a thorough inspection and find out whether your attic ventilation is adequate. We can carry the necessary roof repair in Wichita, KS<\/a> to prevent ice damming for good.<\/p>\n

Leaky Doors<\/strong><\/p>\n

Exterior doors do allow air infiltration; however, the leakage shouldn\u2019t be noticeable. If you feel drafts when they\u2019re closed, it only means they\u2019re not weathertight enough. Normally, caulking or changing the weather stripping would solve the issue, but rot might suffice to merit a replacement. Small signs of decay might not look serious, but the deterioration might have spread to obscure areas.<\/p>\n

At All States Home Improvement, you can count on our proven door installation expertise to evaluate the severity of rot. We can detect every source of air and water leaks, which may damage your interior.<\/p>\n

Window Condensation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Condensation on the outer glass surfaces is normal and may even speak of excellent efficiency. However, the case is different when your double-paned window sweats on the inner sides of the glass.<\/p>\n

The usual suspects are seal and spacer failures, paving the way for moisture infiltration. Apart from affecting your window\u2019s energy performance, water vapor intrusion forms fog and affects visibility. Interior condensation is a telling sign that you have to replace your windows in Wichita, KS<\/a>. If you don\u2019t, your compromised insulated glass units could no longer protect your home against cold air.<\/p>\n
