In a typical house it's not unusual to have temperature differences of several degrees from room to room. Attics, basements and additions usually have the greatest air temperature differences. When one room is uncomfortably hot or cold there are several factors to consider. Inadequate Insulation In a cold climate like Illinois, proper insulation is essential.
The recommended R-value for attics is 43, and an R-value of 21 for walls Air Leaks Proper weather sealing around windows and doors will eliminate drafts and energy loss. One of the most common problems we see in HVAC systems that are not heating or cooling well are air ducts that are not properly sized to deliver air throughout the home.
To check for potential problems ABC can perform an air delivery analysis to determine if air is reaching all areas of your home. Air Duct Leaks Sealing the gaps and joints in your air ducts will allow your furnace and air conditioner to work more efficiently and ensure all the air reaches all areas of your home
