Attic Insulation
You probably don’t think about your attic too often, but it has a major impact on your house’s comfort and energy efficiency.
During the summer, the sun’s heat radiates down onto your roof and conducts into your attic. Heat will always move from a warmer area to a colder one, so when you have your AC running, the heat from your attic will conduct through the attic floor and down into your living spaces.
In the winter, the same thing happens in reverse—heat from your living spaces travels up and into your attic and then conducts out through your roof.
Insulating and air sealing your attic will slow down this movement, keeping heat out of your house during the summer and in during the winter. Attic insulation minimizes energy waste, so you can save money on your bills and reduce your impact on the environment while making your house more comfortable to live in.
Crawl Space Insulation and Encapsulation
Insulating your crawl space will have a positive effect on your entire home, leading to more comfortable and consistent temperatures.
Insulating and sealing your crawl space can also significantly improve your indoor air quality. Crawl spaces are notoriously dirty, grimy places often with mold growing and pests nesting inside them. Without the proper insulation and encapsulation, contaminated air from your crawl space can rise up into your house, hurting your indoor air quality. Solve this problem from the ground up with crawl space insulation for your house.
