Did you know that icicles are a sign of heat loss? These dangerous daggers are not only a threat to your safety but are a sign that cold air is stealing energy dollars from your wallet!
Icicles could be indicators of ice dam formation on roofs. When ice dams melt, they cause water damage to exterior walls of houses. While there are some stop-gap measures one can take to reduce ice dam formation, the underlying cause of ice dams is usually traced to heat loss problems that can be fixed by home performance contractors. Not only can you have ice dam issues resolved, but you can save energy too!
Learn more about how to rid your home of icicles next Wednesday, 2/26 at 7pm at the Hendrick Hudson Library. Join Energize NY for an informational presentation featuring energy expert Norm Jen, who will help homeowners understand how their homes leak energy, how they can fix them—and how to take advantage of New York State incentives to pay for it.
