If you could get better gas mileage in your car by throwing a little bit of caulk around the windows, it probably wouldn't be long before you grabbed a caulking gun and started going to town - well, hopefully you'd wait until the job was done before you went to town, because it's not safe to caulk while driving. Eyes on the road, trick daddy.
Yet, in our homes we can get better fuel efficiency with such a simple act. As the articles in our Learn section point out, you'll get the highest return from tackling leaks in the basement and attic. But there are air leaks all over the interior of an average home, as well - along baseboards, exposed beams, around windows and doors... pretty much wherever construction materials meet - and sealing these up will give your home's fuel efficiency a huge boost.
