Living in Cape Cod means embracing coastal charm, but it also means dealing with seasonal temperature swings, humidity, and older homes that often lack proper insulation or air sealing. One of the most common issues homeowners face is energy loss through hidden air leaks. If your energy bills are high or you constantly struggle to maintain indoor comfort, it may be time to test for drafts in house and explore customized Cape Cod energy solutions from a trusted provider like High Efficiency LLC.

Our team specializes in helping Cape Cod residents improve home performance, reduce energy costs, and qualify for valuable rebates and incentives.

Why Energy Efficiency Matters on Cape Cod

Many homes on Cape Cod were built decades ago—long before energy efficiency became a top priority in construction. As a result, they’re often plagued by air leaks, poor insulation, outdated heating systems, and inefficient windows. These issues contribute to higher energy bills, uneven temperatures, and unnecessary strain on HVAC systems.

At High Efficiency LLC, we offer comprehensive Cape Cod energy solutions that address all aspects of energy loss, including insulation upgrades, air sealing, and HVAC optimization. Whether you live in Falmouth, Barnstable, Hyannis, or beyond, our team is here to help you make your home more comfortable and affordable to maintain.

How to Test for Drafts in Your House

Drafts are one of the leading causes of energy waste in homes. When outside air seeps in and conditioned air escapes, your heating and cooling systems work harder—costing you more money every month.

Here are a few ways you can test for drafts in your house:

1. Visual Inspection

Check around windows, doors, baseboards, electrical outlets, and attic hatches for gaps, cracks, or visible light. These are prime areas for air leaks.

2. Candle or Incense Test

Light a candle or incense stick and slowly move it around suspected leak areas. If the flame or smoke flickers or moves horizontally, there's likely a draft.

3. Hand Test

On a cold or windy day, slowly move your hand around windows, doors, and baseboards. If you feel cool air coming in, you’ve found a leak.

4. Professional Blower Door Test

For the most accurate results, schedule a blower door test with energy efficiency professionals like High Efficiency LLC. This diagnostic tool depressurizes your home to locate even the smallest leaks.
