Why is Your Home so Hot? Tips For Keeping Your Home Comfortable!
Have you ever experienced irregular temperatures throughout your home? Many people report feeling like one room in their house is hotter or colder than the rest of the environment. It can be time-consuming trying to solve the problem without a professional evaluation – is it your insulation, HVAC unit, or maybe air leakage from poorly sealed windows and doorways? Here’s not only how you can get to the bottom of temperature regulation, but how to maintain a comfortable environment.
There are many homes that have trouble keeping their house cool and comfortable during the hot summer months. Many households that don’t have the proper systems and routines in place to make sure their home is temperature regulated. Your house is considered “temperature regulated” when the rooms throughout the house maintain a similar temperature. While this may seem obvious, you might not realize what can affect this regulation so easily – cracks and holes letting out heat, under-insulated ducts, and not the proper insulation. Here are some tips that can help keep your home cool all summer long.
Insulation
Insulation often suffers from the “out of sight, out of mind” treatment. If you don’t have an annual inspection for your insulation, you could be spending more money, inviting more pests, and hiding some big problems. Insulation is a significant factor in temperature regulation – if you don’t regularly remove and renew the insulation, it loses effectiveness. For some insulation types, bugs and rodents use untreated fibers and pieces for their nests and even food. Finally, when neglecting regular inspections, you could be missing hubs for mold, water damage, and even decay in your ceilings.
Air Sealing
Window seals and door frames are two of your most likely culprits when it comes to air leakage around your home. They may seem like small problems, but they can quickly lead to big bills and unwanted guests. Cracks around windows can be an invitation for bugs and pests while the gaps in your door frame are causing your air conditioner to make up for the escaped air.
