Insulation work isn’t just for the winter. When homeowners think about drafty homes, the drafts are usually bringing in cold air when your heater is struggling to keep you warm. However, what if we told you that insulation can keep your home cool during the summer as well? Finding ways to keep cool air inside your home is one of the hardest parts of air conditioning!

Let’s go into detail about what insulation work is, how it can help, and whether your home needs it or not! Improving homes to keep things comfortable is something that we think everyone can get behind.
How Insulation Works
When you’re trying to keep your home comfortable, it’s not just about creating cool air during the summer, or warm air during the winter. It’s also about keeping the outside, uncomfortable air, out. Insulation is the process of making your home sealed tighter by using materials to block out the outdoor heat and keep your conditioned air inside.
We know that heat rises and sometimes we can tell that the higher up we go in our homes, the hotter things get. Your home’s second story might be hotter than the first story, just by default! Now think about your attic for a second. Attics are the perfect heat sink in your home. While your roof gets all the sunlight on a hot day, your attic is also the highest part of your home, capturing all the heat. This can make it exceptionally hard for your air conditioner to cool your home without attic insulation!
Insulate Your Attic
By insulating your attic, you can get better results from your air conditioner and your home might feel cooler. By keeping excess summer heat out of your attic, you’re essentially removing a large heat sink that usually creates problems for your home’s comfort. Our team provides cellulose insulation for your attic and other areas, which is an environmentally-friendly material. Cellulose is made up of 85% recycled newspaper and 15% non-combustible material, so you’re getting a green solution that will keep cool air inside!
Fill in the Gaps
Insulation doesn’t just belong in your attic. Anywhere you might think conditioned air is leaking, our blow-in insulation can be a great solution. Cellulose can create a seamless seal in many areas, insulating various cracks and holes. Since cellulose is also incredibly dry, it also doesn’t contribute to the growth of mold. By calling our team and signing up for insulation services, you’re making the job easier for your air conditioner and you’re bound to enjoy a more comfortable home. An insulated home is always easier to cool during the summer and heat during the winter. By working with us, you’re setting yourself up for success.
