One of the best ways to lower energy costs, create a healthier environment for your family, and increase the life of your HVAC system is to condition your attic.

If your heating and air system is in your attic, then conditioning that space is very beneficial. Let’s break it down. There is nothing inherently wrong with a traditionally ventilated attic. Air moves through the soffit and up and out of vents at, or in, the ridge. This system works well and has worked for hundreds of years.

Maintaining an air gap behind the cladding on our homes is essential. Whether it is brick, siding, or stone━the system is essentially the same.

How do we do it? We create a continuous uninterrupted gap between the back of your cladding and the face of your wall sheathing. This ensures that air can move through this gap, promoting drying. Drying prevents potential long-term water/moisture damage to your home, which can lead to mold, rot, and very costly repairs in the future.
