WHAT IS INSULATION?
Wall insulation is more essential to the overall comfort and efficiency of a home than people realize. Insulation is material designed as a barrier to keep out extreme heat and severe cold weather. Generally speaking, insulation is most effective when it is installed throughout your home. This includes your attic and crawl space, but especially your walls.
IT MAY BE TIME TO UPGRADE YOUR INSULATION
If you find yourself shivering throughout the winter or burning up during the summer in your home, it may be time for more energy efficient insulation. Many people don’t think about the importance of insulation in protecting you and your home.
Generally speaking, your home may be in need of an upgrade if there is a sudden spike in energy usage or if your home was constructed more than 20 years ago.
