True or False?: Walls need to breathe. 🌬️

FALSE! Walls need to be as airtight as possible because if air can get in, so can anything in the air, especially moisture. 💧

Moisture in the walls can damage them, sometimes causing mold that is not only harmful to the wall but also harmful to the health of residents in the home. 😷

Conversely, if air gets in, it can also get out, causing energy losses and costing the homeowner money. 💵

There are several ways to increase the airtightness of a home. Drop us a line, and let`s talk about which is the best choice for you.
