Home insulation is a critical component of any home. It limits the transfer of heat, keeping your home warm in winter and cool in summer. With proper installation and air sealing, energy bills can be cut by up to 15%.

Insulation Contractor primarily prevents the flow of heat, by limiting the conduction and convection of heat, but it also works to limit radiation. Radiation occurs when the sun shines and warms any absorbent object it hits, including your home’s walls and roof. The amount of radiant heat absorbed is directly related to how much of your heating energy is lost.

There are many different types of home insulation, including blown-in cellulose, fiberglass batts and spray foam. When selecting the type of home insulation to install, it’s important to consider factors like cost, R-value, environmental impacts, indoor air quality impacts, recycled content and embodied carbon.

Signs Your Home Needs an Insulation Upgrade

The most common areas to insulate include attics, exterior walls, interior walls and band joists. When installing home insulation, air sealing is a crucial step and should be done prior to the insulation work.

While it may seem daunting to make the decision on what and where to insulate your home, there are numerous resources available to help you make an educated choice that is best for your particular situation. There are even governmental and energy supplier rebates available for homeowners who make the investment in home insulation.
