What the housing means for the work
- 1980s and 1990s houses. 30 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.
- Seasonal homes. 24 percent of Middleton homes are held for seasonal or occasional use. A roof leak or ice dam in an empty house can go unseen all winter, so check the roof and attic before the snow.
- Delivered fuel. 80 percent of Middleton households heat mainly with oil or propane, so heat kept in by an air-sealed attic is fuel you do not have to buy.
- Wood heat. 14 percent heat mainly with wood. Around chimneys we keep roofing, siding and insulation work to the required clearances.
