Energy Trust Energy Saving Tips!

Unsealed ductwork often leaks--a significant and common energy waster in Oregon homes. If you are considering insulating your ducts, test them for leakage first—it’s much easier and cheaper to seal ducts before they are insulated. See the Duct Sealing page for information on available Energy Trust incentives.
