The foundation of effective air tightness lies in establishing a continuous 🔲 air barrier throughout the building envelope. This isn`t just about applying products in isolation – it`s about creating an unbroken seal that connects every component of your building system.
Think of the pencil ✏️ rule or redlining; you should be able to draw a continuous line around your entire building envelope without lifting your pencil. This continuity is what transforms individual air sealing products into a comprehensive system. Whether you`re connecting foundation to wall, wall to roof, or navigating complex penetrations, maintaining this continuous barrier is critical.
The importance of continuity cannot be talked about too much. Even small gaps can have outsized impacts on building performance. A 1/4-inch gap around a typical building`s perimeter can be equivalent to leaving a window open year-round in terms of energy loss and air quality impacts.

It’s National Dog Day! 🐾
Please enjoy these pics of Samy, our unofficial mascot and adventure buddy. She hikes hard, naps harder, and photobombs often. We’re just lucky to tag along for the adventure.

Thermal bridges = weak spots in your home’s insulation where heat sneaks out and cold creeps in ❄️➡️🔥. Think of them as tiny highways for energy loss.
ThermalBuck helps shut those highways down. By extending the mounting point for windows and doors, it creates a flush plane for cladding and keeps your insulation continuous—no more gaps, no more shortcuts for heat to escape.
Want to see how it could work for your next build with @AlpenHPP window installation? Let’s talk high-performance strategies.

Building at over ⛰️ 7,000 ft in Kremmling, CO is quite an endeavor.
At this elevation, it is essential to get the right insulation, window performance, and moisture control. From high R-values to airtight construction, every 🔎 detail matters to keep mountain homes comfortable, efficient, and ready for whatever Mother Nature throws at them.
Check out the pics from this mountain home with @AlpenHPP windows. 📈 High altitude, high performance!

Mark your 🗓️ calendars, the Metro Denver Green Home Tour is back on October 4! We are excited to be 💚 sponsors of this year`s event.
To kick things off, @newenergycolorado is hosting a speaker series featuring experts in climate and building innovation.
The first talk is TONIGHT at 🍺 New Terrain Brewery, where architect Bonnie Sen will share “The Path to Passive: Bridging the Gap Between Green Architecture and Existing Buildings.”

The Great Wall of China is impressive… and luckily you’re not sealing 13,171 miles of wall. 😅
Even so, a few gaps in your home’s envelope can create a Great Wall of air leaks, letting in 💧moisture, allergens, and higher energy bills.
Proper air tightness = less energy loss, healthier air, and mechanical systems that actually work as designed.
Check out this month’s blog to see why “build it tight, ventilate right” matters. Link in bio!
