Read the following paragraph. Write a generalization that summarizes the information. Draw an inference regarding the energy savings from proper window and door installation. If unwanted air infiltrates the home through cracks around windows and doors, this percentage may increase. While it may cost a bit to purchase and install such items as caulking and weatherstripping, this amount will quickly be recovered in lower monthly utility bills.

Caulking is a resilient, semi-solid material that call seal cracks around window and door joints and frames.
