About Insulation

What is Home Insulation?

Home insulation is a critical element in improving a building’s energy efficiency by minimizing heat transfer and sealing air leaks. Proper insulation helps maintain stable indoor temperatures throughout the year, leading to lower energy use and reduced heating and cooling expenses. The performance of insulation is indicated by its R-value, where a higher value means greater resistance to heat flow.

FAQs

What is the best insulation?

The best insulation depends on your specific needs, such as climate, budget, and application. Common effective types include fiberglass for affordability, spray foam for air sealing, and cellulose for eco-friendliness. Choosing the right one starts with understanding your project requirements..

How much insulation do I need?

The amount of insulation you need depends on your climate, the area you're insulating, and your home's current insulation levels. Generally, insulation is measured in R-values, which indicate resistance to heat flow. For most homes, recommended R-values range from R-13 to R-21 for walls, and R-30 to R-60 for attics. It's best to consult local building codes or a professional to determine the exact amount suited for your project.
