Many things create cracks v around doors, windows and other openings: wood shrinks, putty cracks, foundations settle, seals wear, doors warp. The end result is usually a lit­ tle crack here, a crack there. Federal government figures say that as much as 55% of the normal heating load on your house comes from 'air infiltra­ tion.' That's heat lost through open doors and other leaks. Some 15% to 30% of the load is heat lost through cracks around closed doors and windows. And, of course, it works both ways: wasted heat in winter is the same as lost cooling in sum­ mer when you have air condi­ tioning. The most cost-effective wa; to cut ioss of heating and cool ing energy around doors and windows is to caulk and install professional weatherseals. Homeowners, for the first time, can obtain professional weatherseals from the nation's largest producer, Schlegel Corp. of Rochester, N.Y. Schlegel has two weather- ' seals to do the job: 'Polyflex' door seals and Hinged Window Sealing Kits. Each comes with self-adhesive backing for easy mounting. • Weatherseal for doors Polyflex brand is a plastic strip that fits between door and jamb. Old metal weatherstrip- ping need not be removed. When the door is closed, it presses against the strip, creat­ ing a tight seal that is invisible when the door is closed. , Polyflex weatherseal will last for many years without shrink­ ing, cracking, fading or rotting.

This rubber bead is designed to fit around hinged windows, such as French windows cr casement windows. Cellar win­ dows are often hinged, as are balcony windows. Installation takes only min­ utes, and the only tool needed is a pair of scissors. The seal can be applied either to the window or the frame. Simply cut to size, peel back the protective paper from the adhesive and press the strip into place. Tax credits Now that President Carter's energy bill has passed, con­ sumers can obtain income tax credits for installing weather- ARE YOU LOSING ENERGY from these openings?

Caulking or weatherseal mat­ erials qualify for tax credits when used for exterior doors and windows. The material costs alone qualify, not labor charges if you hire someone to put it in. The important thing about these tax credits is that they are subtracted from your bottom line. In other words, Uncle Sam will give back, dollar for dollar, 15% of what you pay for weatherseals and other ap­ proved measures, up to a total of $300. And you can also cut your heating bill from 15% to 30%!
