AIR LEAKS ARE A BIG WASTE

Compressing

ﬁberglass insulation

causes it to lose

insulating value.

Stufﬁng ﬁberglass

insulation into narrow,

hard-to-ﬁll gaps leads

to limited insulation

value and a poor

air seal.

** Before applying, turn off electrical power to that area of the home.

Be sure that wiring has protective covering. Never apply foam to

exposed wiring or inside an electrical box.

Air inﬁltration accounts for

25%-40% of a home’s energy loss.*

In a study conducted by Dow and D.R. Nelson & Associates, air loss was measured

in 15 homes using blower door tests. Potential energy savings were estimated using

REM Home Energy Analysis Software. Results vary based on construction, style, year

built, and other distinct home characteristics. Participating homeowners were current

employees of Dow.
