The effect insulation has on your home
Insulation is installed in homes to limit heat transfer. This means preventing the air you pay to heat from escaping during the winter and preventing hot, humid air from the outside from entering the home in the summer.
If you know how your home’s insulation works, you can also understand what makes it malfunction and contribute to poor energy performance in a house. Here’s what can go wrong:
Choosing the right R-value for your home
All insulation shares a common unit of measure known as R-value. The “R” stands for resistance to heat flow. A high R-value means greater resistance to heat flow and thus, greater insulating value. R-value is described both in R-value per inch and in total R-value.
The Department of Energy recommends homes have attic insulation that provides between R-38 and R-49, depending on your climate. Blown cellulose insulation from Attic Systems is the most efficient method to reach this level and improve your home’s energy performance.
