Insulation Matters More Than Ever

Many homeowners are looking for a cost-effective way to save energy in their homes and businesses. While many solutions are out there, such as air sealing, it’s important that homeowners and businesses consider the most effective solution first—insulation. Insulation reduces energy consumption by preventing the transfer of heat between interior and exterior environments, stabilizing temperatures to prevent drafts and cold spots throughout a space. This leads to reduced energy expenses, as well as other benefits such as enhancing comfort, reducing noise transmission and improving indoor air quality.

Homeowners that invest in proper attic insulation are likely to save money on their energy bills, and they may even benefit from rebates or incentives offered by Mass Save(r). A no-cost home energy assessment with Revise, Inc. can help homeowners determine if they are eligible for these opportunities to save energy in their home.

Avoid Costly Heat Loss with the Right Attic Insulation

A common question is “what is R-value?” The R-value measures the ability of a material to resist the flow of heat and sound, and it can be found on the rolls of insulation you see at your hardware store. The higher the R-value, the more effective the insulation will be.

In addition to reducing your home’s energy costs, a properly insulated home will reduce the risk of ice dams in northern climates. This problem occurs when heated air from an uninsulated attic melts snow on a roof, causing it to refreeze and back up under shingles, potentially destroying your roof. Insulation helps keep this issue from developing, saving your home’s roof and boosting its value on the market.
