Now that cold weather has started to come around in our region, homeowners and businesses are starting to put their heating units to use again. You want your home or commercial building to be comfortable this holiday season, but at what cost? If your home or building isn’t properly insulated, you could be spending twice as much trying to keep your space warm. Insulation expert Sam Boak knows how much his customers have saved by having insulation installed in their space, so he wants to explain how insulation can help save on heating costs!
Insulation creates a thermal barrier.
Insulation is like layering on clothing to keep you warm. Your body heat is insulated with your winter coat, so that heat continues to keep you warm. It’s a similar process with home or building insulation! Insulation creates a thermal barrier that keeps the interior temperature regulated. This allows your space to be heated faster and with less effort and remain the desired temperature longer. That’s what saves your utility costs from getting too high!
Where is insulation necessary?
While insulation can be installed within the walls and ceilings of your building, insulation expert Sam Boak knows that the attic is where it really counts. Without proper insulation, you could lose a ton of warm air through your attic and the incoming cold air is likely to spread throughout the building. Installing the proper insulation in your attic can help to control that cold air and keep the home warm and cozy. Fuel costs needed to heat your home are rising! By focusing installation in the areas that need it most, home and building owners can help control their utility costs. Insulation is one of the few things you can do that will actually pay for itself!
