Ans'n. lnfi'tration and air leakage through walls, roof and around doors, windows and eaves, all contribute materially ma-terially to the total heat loss v. hi.-h a building may sustain. sus-tain. Some of the conclusion i as to the -armHUU of heat loss are surprising. It is statod that tests and observations have shown a loss of from 25 to 35 per cent in a typical dwelling without insulation, through the walls; from 25 to V,5 per cent through the attic, ceiling and roof, 30 to 40 per cent at window and door openings; open-ings; and 5 to 10 per cent through first floor and basement base-ment walls. Insulation can be applied to old homes with just as satisfactory sat-isfactory results, though a different plan is used. Don't blame the coal when insulation insula-tion and weather - stripping will confine the heat to where it will be effective. PHONE 20 for demonstration and estimate esti-mate and be comfortable.
