Our reputation for quality air sealing services among Dalton best HVAC services is built on years of experience and meticulous attention to detail.
Serving Calhoun and all of Northwest Georgia — including Gordon, Bartow, Whitfield, Floyd, Polk, Pickens, Cherokee, Walker, and Murray counties — we help clients enjoy more comfortable spaces and lower utility bills. We understand the importance of energy efficiency and comfort for homeowners, and our air sealing services are designed to meet these goals. Proper air sealing helps your home stand out for its superior energy efficiency and comfort, ensuring optimal comfort for you and your family.
Air sealing can drastically reduce energy efficiency in homes by letting conditioned air escape while allowing outside air to enter. This not only increases energy bills but also creates uncomfortable indoor conditions. Addressing air infiltration helps stabilize indoor temperatures, keeping your home warm during the winter and cool in the summer. Furthermore, sealing air leaks reduces outdoor noise, making your living space more peaceful and enjoyable.
At Anderson Heating, Air & Insulation we focus on identifying and fixing leaks, especially in hidden areas that often go unnoticed. Properly sealing these gaps can significantly boost energy efficiency, enhance comfort, and reduce the strain on your heating and cooling systems. Achieving optimal comfort is one of the key benefits of our air sealing services.
Why Choose Air Sealing?
Our Proven Air Sealing Process:
1. Detailed Home or Building Audit
We use blower door testing and thermal imaging to identify air leaks and pressure imbalances. As part of the audit, a professional will inspect your property to locate all sources of air leakage. We also conduct a thorough search for air leaks in all critical areas. After the audit, we provide a detailed estimate outlining the scope of work and costs involved.
2. Targeted Sealing Solutions
Areas such as attic hatches, recessed lighting, plumbing chases, and duct boots are sealed using high-quality caulk, spray foam, and weatherstripping. Sealing these leaks means lower energy bills, improved comfort, and less strain on your HVAC system.
3. Ductwork Sealing & Testing
Duct leaks are sealed and retested for improvements in airflow and system performance.
4. Final Verification & Documentation
After sealing is complete, we retest airflow, walk through your space, and provide evidence of improved efficiency and comfort. We conduct a final review of the work to ensure quality assurance and your satisfaction. The obvious benefit of sealing air leaks is a more comfortable, energy-efficient home, but you’ll also enjoy better air quality and longer-lasting equipment.

Air sealing is one of the most cost-effective ways to save energy and improve your home’s energy efficiency in any existing home. Homeowners can significantly reduce heat loss and improve heating and cooling performance by identifying and addressing air leaks throughout the building envelope. At Anderson Heating, Air & Insulation, we prioritize targeted air sealing measures that increase comfort and deliver long-term energy savings.
The average home can leak air through dozens of small openings, which can significantly affect indoor air quality and comfort. These include gaps in exterior doors, window frames, electrical outlets, and even switch plates. Uncontrolled air leakage allows cold air and outside air to enter while heated or cooled air escapes, forcing HVAC systems to work harder and increasing energy costs. Our team helps you seal these leaks effectively to maintain consistent indoor temperatures.
Key problem areas in the building envelope include places such as rim joists, attic entrance hatches, crawl spaces, basements, and the attic foundation. These areas often have dirty spots that indicate air movement. By sealing cracks, open seams, and other gaps, Anderson Heating, Air & Insulation improves air tightness and reduces air leakage significantly.
Spray foam is one of the most versatile air-sealing techniques we use. It expands to fill gaps around electrical wiring, plumbing penetrations, and framing. Ideal for filling cracks and large voids, spray foam reduces air leaks and adds insulation value, making your home more power efficient and helping to save energy throughout the year.
A blower door test is a diagnostic tool we use to detect where homes leak air. This test helps us identify the exact locations of air infiltration and develop an effective air sealing strategy. Whether you’re working on new construction or improving a current home, this test ensures that all significant air leaks are addressed.
Air tightness is crucial to maximizing the performance of insulation and HVAC systems. Without proper sealing, insulation cannot function efficiently, leading to heat loss and inconsistent temperatures. At Anderson Heating, Air & Insulation, we focus on improving the air tightness of your home to ensure better indoor comfort and lower energy bills.
Uncontrolled airflow through cracks and gaps allows humid air to enter wall cavities and attics, which can lead to moisture problems and mold and mildew growth. Air sealing stops this movement, protecting your home from costly moisture issues. In turn, this helps maintain a healthier indoor environment.
Sealing the basement is crucial for improving energy efficiency, as it is often a major source of air leaks. Crawl spaces, basements, and rim joists are often overlooked in air sealing tasks. These areas can leak air, increasing drafts and cold spots. We dramatically reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency by sealing cracks in these regions with spray foam or metal and foil tape.
The attic floor and access hatches are notorious for leaking air. Warm air naturally rises, and if these areas are not properly sealed, energy loss is inevitable. We install bubble gaskets, weather stripping, and insulation around attic access hatches to stop air leakage and improve comfort.
Exterior doors and window frames are common areas where air leaks occur. Installing high-quality weather stripping and bubble gaskets is a simple yet effective way to seal air leaks and prevent cold air from entering your home. These air sealing measures help maintain comfortable indoor conditions year-round.
Tiny gaps around electrical outlets, switch plates, and wiring allow significant air leakage over time. We install bubble gaskets behind outlet covers and use caulk or spray foam to seal wiring penetrations. These small adjustments make a huge impact on the overall energy efficiency of your home.
When you seal air leaks, you reduce the workload on your hvac system, allowing your heating and cooling systems operate more efficiently. Less energy is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature, reducing wear and tear on your HVAC units. This can lead to longer equipment life, fewer repairs, and noticeable energy savings.
Fireplace flues and chimneys often have loose seams that leak air and allow moisture to enter. Using fire-resistant materials such as sheet metal, furnace cement, or specialized caulks, we seal these problem areas safely and effectively, keeping your home warm and fuel-efficient.
Spray foam isn’t always the answer in areas exposed to high temperatures or irregular shapes. We use sheet metal and foil tape to cover large or awkward gaps, especially around mechanical penetrations and ductwork. These materials offer long-lasting, secure seals that withstand temperature changes and moisture.
