Insufficient insulation is a major source of energy waste in homes and costs families a lot of money. Energy efficient insulation keeps your house warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, saving you money on energy bills and helping to reduce your carbon footprint.

The primary function of insulation is to resist heat flow, preventing the transfer between warm and cold areas of the home. Insulation also helps maintain a consistent temperature, making the house more comfortable year-round. Depending on the type of insulation and its R-value, it can save 45% or more on heating and cooling costs.

Insulation and Home Wellness Connection: Linking Energy Efficiency to Health

Spray foam insulation is a great choice for your home, whether you’re building new or renovating. In fact, many state and local building codes require that houses meet certain energy-saving standards that can only be achieved through proper insulation.

Heat flows in three ways: conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction happens when heated objects like a pan or stove conduct heat through them. The air in your home moves by convection, which is why warm air rises and cool air sinks. Radiant heat moves in a straight line and heats anything it hits. Insulation slows down the conduction, convection, and radiation processes, lowering your electricity and gas bills.

In addition to lowering your energy costs, good quality insulation also acts as a sound barrier, limiting the transmission of noise between rooms. It can also help prevent condensation, which causes corrosion of pipes, ductwork, and roof drains. The reduction of indoor irritants like dust, mold, and pollen also makes your home more comfortable and improves air quality.
