10 Reasons To Update Your Home’s Insulation

Aug 30, 2018

Fall weather is approaching, which means the bitter cold of winter isn’t far behind. Get your home ready for the dropping temperatures by upgrading your home’s insulation! Not convinced? Here’s 10 reasons you should upgrade your insulation this fall.

  1. Saves money. When you use less electricity or natural gas, you’ll naturally reduce your costs. You could save up to 20 percent annually on your energy costs.
  2. Year-round comfort. Insulation reduces the flow of heat in the winter (from inside to outside), and in the summer (from outside to inside).
  3. Cost effective. Upgrading your insulation could have a payback of less than five years.
  4. Rebates are available. Save even more! We offer a rebate on upgrading your insulation that covers 20 percent of the cost, up to $300! Find out more.
  5. Adds value. Utility costs are often analyzed when buyers are researching homes.
  6. Helps the community. By using our resources wisely, we can reduce the need for costly system upgrades that effect everyone in our community.
  7. Noise reduction. Insulation not only reduces heat flow, but also is a great sound-absorbing material.
  8. Healthier home. When properly installed, additional insualtion can reduce mold growth by reducing the potential for condensation.
  9. Heat and cool more efficiently. By reducing the amount of heat flow, your HVAC equipment will not have to run as long to reach the thermostat setting.
  10. Do it first. Although it may not be an eye-catching improvement, it should be one of the first items you consider when making your home more efficient.
