What Type of Insulation is Right for Your Home?

April is Earth Month!  There are many ways to make your home more eco-friendly, but one of the best ways to improve your home’s energy efficiency is by making sure it is well insulated.  This helps keep conditioned air inside no matter what the temperature is outside.  Each type of home insulation has it’s own unique benefits.  Here are a few tips to help you determine what type of insulation will be the best fit for your home.

 

Spray Foam Insulation – Polyurethane Spray Foam Insulation can be applied to walls, attics, basements, and crawlspaces.  It is designed to completely fill open spaces, eliminating gaps and preventing air from escaping.

 

Fiberglass Insulation – Fiberglass insulation is blown into walls, attics, ceilings and floors.  It is made from 50% recycled content and because it is loose fill, gaps in the wall are completely filled.

 

Cellulose Insulation – This insulation is used in your attic.  It helps keep your home warm in the winter and cool as we approach the summer months.  Since many older homes completely lack attic insulation, cellulose insulation can help improve your home’s energy efficiency.
