Got Installation?
When people are working on remodeling their homes, many times they tend to overlook the insulation in the home. By insulating your home you are making it more energy efficient and easier to maintain a comfortable temperature. There are a few ways that a homeowner can keep their homes at a comfortable temperature, while being more energy efficient at the same time.
First, you will want to make sure that there are no gaps that will allow for the warm or cold air to creep inside. If you have gaps that require filling, it is a very simple project to take on. When looking for gaps you will want to start by looking at your windows and doors. For gaps that are found around your doors you can use an adhesive backed insulation tape around the inside of the door jam. For cracks around the molding of your windows you can utilize a silicone based caulk. This is a simple process and can be completed with a few tubes of caulk and a caulk gun.
Next look under sinks and behind toilets to make sure there are no gaps between the incoming pipes and the wall. These holes are not only draining of your energy, but they are also a great way for rodents and bugs to get in.
Foam aerosol is a perfect way to fill in the larger gaps in your home. It is a compressed foam that get squeezed through a nozzle and expands in the gap to fill it up. It is perfect for gaps that are over a quarter of an inch, but with anything smaller it can be a tricky job. The foam is very difficult to remove from unwanted areas, and by using it with smaller holes it can become a very messy job.
You will also not want to forget to check your attic and crawl spaces. You want to make sure that they are insulated with a pink insulation and that it is at an adequate level. If you want to increase the level of insulation you have a few options. The first is to buy a roll of insulation at your local hardware store, and the second is to hire a professional that offers a spray insulation that is more effective as it can get into the smaller spaces that you are unable to reach.
