A New Door

We had an energy audit done last year and it showed that one of our doors was leaking cold air in great quantities. They took infrared pictures and it is amazing to see how much cold air was coming in especially on the bottom left. The blacker the color, the more cold air is coming in.

  Since it's starting to get colder again it was time to fix it. Fixing it was actully going to be harder than just replacing it so on Sunday afternoon we replaced it completely. The weather was perfect fortunately. It's in and sealed up now and should make the utility room a lot warmer this winter. We sealed the heck out of the new door with foam and insulation. Dale stand proudly here with his pry bar with remnants of the old door frame. Below is the new door about to be intalled.
