Why Is Insulation Important?

Important Factors of Insulation

Besides heating and windows, Insulation Co deal with the other four major areas of the building envelope: attic, ceiling, crawl spaces, floors, walls, and air sealing. Many people have the perception that insulation makes your home warmer and it does in a sense.

What Does Insulation Do?

Heating and cooling account for 50 to 70% of the energy used in the average American home. Inadequate insulation and air leakage are leading causes of energy waste in most homes.

Insulation Helps:

*Saves money and our nation’s limited energy resources

*Makes your house more comfortable by helping to maintain a uniform temperature throughout the house, and makes walls, ceilings, and floors warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.

What Are The Benefits of Insulation?

The amount of energy you conserve will depend on several factors:

your local climate
the size, shape, and construction of your house
the living habits of your family
the type and efficiency of the heating and cooling systems
the fuel you use.

Once the energy savings have paid for the installation cost, energy conserved is money saved, and saving energy will be even more important as utility rates go up. There are many other things you can do to conserve energy in your home as well. You save energy by sealing air leaks, selecting more energy-efficient appliances, etc.
