Insulation Information

Add or Upgrade the insulation in your home to make your indoor living more comfortable, protect your health and save money

Insulation is important year-round. A well-insulated house will stay cool in summer and warm in winter.
Roof or Attic/ceiling insulation is most important for keeping cool in hot weather and warm in cold weather. Most homes absorb heat through the roof, so insulating the top of the house keeps heat from reaching down to the living areas and stops the heat escaping out in the cold winter days.

Affordability

If your house is uninsulated or poorly insulated, you will quickly recoup the costs of insulating with lower energy bills year-round. If you are building a house, good insulation installed properly will reduce your heating and cooling needs, and save you money.
