What the housing means for the work
- Lead-safe work. 50 percent of homes were built before 1980. Atlas is an EPA certified lead renovator and follows lead-safe (RRP) practices on pre-1978 paint.
- 1980s and 1990s houses. 31 percent were built between 1980 and 1999. They were built to older energy codes, so attic air sealing is worth pairing with new windows or a roof.
- Delivered fuel. 71 percent of Atkinson households heat mainly with oil or propane, so heat kept in by an air-sealed attic is fuel you do not have to buy.
How Atkinson homes are heated
The most common main heating fuel in Atkinson is fuel oil or kerosene (46 percent of households).
