Each year in the United States
nearly
$13 billion worth of
energy in the form of heated or
cooled air escapes from
buildings and homes because of
air infiltration (A&E Television).


1/6 of the electricity used in
the United States is for cooling
homes and buildings.  This
equates to
$40 billion a year.
Air infiltration accounts for 40%
of thermal energy loss in a home
or building (US Dept of Energy).

50-70% of an average American
home utility bill is associated to
heating and cooling needs.
The most common cause of
indoor air quality problems in
homes and buildings is from
mold (US Environmental
Protection Agency).
