Ventilation Air Leakage

Air leakage caused by cold air from the outside, but warm air inside occurs when the building contains cracks or openings at different levels. This results in the cold and heavy air, arriving at low levels and pushing the warm and light air at high levels, and this project is a chimney. When the storm tapes are used in the well-equipped windows, very little redirection of penetration into protected, but the application of the leaf does not give airspace, which reduces the transfer of heat energy and helps prevent window frosting. Applying storm belt to poorly installed windows, reduction of leakage (up to 50%) can be obtained. Effect, as the air leakage is concerned, would be approximately equivalent to that obtained by installing weather Stripping.
