Commercial insulation is one of the most cost-effective energy efficiency upgrades you can make. It’s not only good for your wallet, it’s a great way to help reduce our collective reliance on planet-warming greenhouse gases.
Keeping your house well insulated can save you money and help keep your family comfortable year-round. It’s especially important in homes built before 1960, which are typically less insulated than newer houses. Older homes tend to have air leaks and gaps, which allow heat and cold air to escape, requiring your heating or cooling system to work harder to compensate. Home insulation helps seal these leaks and gaps and can significantly improve the comfort of your home.

Insulation is made from a variety of materials and each type has different benefits and characteristics. Generally, the higher the R-value of a product, the better it insulates. Some factors to consider when choosing insulation include indoor air quality impacts, life cycle costs, recycled content, and embodied carbon.
Insulation is typically installed in attics, walls, and crawl spaces, primarily to insulate against hot or cold weather. It can be installed in the form of dry batts (fiberglass, mineral wool, cotton, and wool), cellulose, or spray foam. Spray foam is the most effective insulation, as it can be sprayed directly onto walls or into the attic space where it is designed to fit between studs and joists. Other types of insulation require drilling holes and removing existing drywall or trim, which may be costly.
