建筑信封,也称为建筑enclosure, shell or perimeter, is simply the physical barrier between your home’s conditioned (heated or cooled) and unconditioned air. This consists of exterior walls, roof, sub floor, exterior doors and windows. A tightly-sealed building envelope is effective at keeping conditioned air inside your home, creating a comfortable living space with reduced energy output.
