Home insulation is one of the most effective energy-saving upgrades you can make to your home. It can prevent drafts and keep the cold out in winter and heat in in summer. This simple and inexpensive improvement will save you money over time, keeping your house comfortable all year round. It also reduces the amount of work your air conditioning and furnace system needs to do, and lowers greenhouse gas emissions.
There are a few things to consider when choosing the type of home insulation you want. The first is the R-value. The higher the R-value, the more efficient it is. The other consideration is the material itself. Fiberglass is common and available in a range of R-values, and it is relatively cheap. However, it can be problematic in exposed areas and has a substantial environmental impact. Natural materials like sheep’s wool offer an eco-friendly alternative but have their own challenges.
Spray Foam Genie Charlotte: Transforming Homes with Better Insulation
Spray foam is more expensive than other types of home insulation but it offers the best R-value and can seal even the most difficult spaces. It is applied as a soft foam or foaming liquid and then stiffened in place. It can be installed in walls, attics, and floors and provides an airtight barrier that reduces the amount of heat lost in the summer and in the winter.
