ABSTRACT

Weatherizing, insulating, and sealing are important tools in the green energy toolbox. They are not only used to increase energy efficiency and conservation programs but also create a market for green jobs. Various types of weatherizing, insulating, and sealing products include blow-in and spray-on applications. These products can help reduce energy consumption by improving the insulation of buildings and homes. This can help reduce the amount of energy needed to heat or cool a building or home, which can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Green infrastructure can also help reduce the amount of energy needed to manage water by reducing rainwater flows into sewer systems. This can help reduce pumping and treatment demands for municipalities.
