This also means that your system will wear and tear much faster than it should.<\/p>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<p>Locating cold air leaks is easy. You may choose to hire an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/ask-an-hvac-technician\/\">HVAC technician<\/a> to do it professionally, or you can simply do it yourself. For the latter, one option to try to suss out the cold air leaks is to light an incense stick and walk around the house with it. Pay close attention to areas that are more susceptible to cold air leaks such as windows and door frames, around baseboards, and near the attic hatch. A wave in the smoke&rsquo;s direction indicates a leak.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fixing_Cold_Air_Leaks\"><\/span>Fixing Cold Air Leaks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To have the cold air leaks in your home fixed properly, hiring an HVAC contractor may be the best option for you. A professional will ensure that all the areas have been properly sealed and even check for leaks in any other place. Some of the ways that you can fix a cold air leak include: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Appling weather-stripping on door frames and between double doors.<\/li>\n<li>Using caulk to seal any gaps in the window frames and around baseboards.<\/li>\n<li>Having\u00a0 insulation installed around the recessed lighting canisters in the attic.<\/li>\n<li>Adding a door sweeper on the bottom of doors that have gaps between them and the floor when closed.<\/li>\n<li>Having foam gaskets installed in the electric plugs.<\/li>\n<li>Using insulation for any holes for wiring, cables, and pipes in the exterior walls.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Let_Galmiche_Sons_Fix_the_Cold_Air_Leaks_in_Your_Home\"><\/span>Let Galmiche &amp; Sons Fix the Cold Air Leaks in Your Home<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Cold air leaks may seem like a minor problem, but they have a huge effect on your bills.
