Imagine your home as a haunted mansion, where howling winds from the outside seep through unseen crevices, creating a ghostly presence on ceilings and walls. These stains are known as thermal bridging. Through gaps in insulation or poorly insulated areas, heat transfer creates dark patches and chilling drafts. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, residential and commercial buildings account for a substantial 40% of all energy consumption in the United States alone, with a significant portion lost due to thermal bridging.
What secrets lie behind these unexplained phenomena? Poorly installed or inadequate insulation, uninsulated spaces around windows and doors, and skeletal framing that conducts heat are common culprits. These structural inadequacies allow heat to escape, leaving behind cold spots, eerie imprints and increased energy costs.
