In Arizona, where air conditioning accounts for 17% of electricity expenditures, finding ways to reduce cooling costs is essential (EIA, 2018). That includes hiring a caulking contractor to seal gaps, cracks, and other possible sources of air leaks. These leaks allow treated air to travel in an unwanted direction resulting in higher energy bills. Problems with allergens, insects, moisture, and noise are also possible.
Weatherproofing offers substantial benefits. One of the most important purposes of this project is to promote an energy efficient home or building. It also helps keep insects and moisture out as well as aids in the creation of a comfortable indoor living or working environment. Address air leaks today by scheduling an appointment with a licensed caulking contractor, such as Royalty Sealants, who understands the complexities of Arizona’s weather.
Weatherproofing with Sealants
Sealants, commonly known as caulking, are used in the weatherization of existing structures as well as new builds. They are usually applied to immobile areas where weather and moisture resistance is crucial. There are two material options for use around residential and commercial structures: silicone and urethane. Both provide an excellent barrier between a surface, like a windowpane, and an element such as wind.
Sealants are suitable for a wide variety of applications. In addition to weatherization, they can be applied to plumbing fixtures and floor joints. Because it’s important to understand the differences between sealants, a caulking contractor can help you make an informed decision for your specific project type and size. While both silicone and urethane sealants require curing – usually about 24 hours – they’re incredibly durable.
