Green Heating and Cooling Insulation Upgrade Program Insulation keeps your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. There are several common types of insulation — fiberglass (in both batt and blown forms), cellulose, blown-in-blanket and spray foam. When correctly installed with air sealing, each type of insulation can deliver comfort and lower energy bills during the hottest and coldest times of the year. Insulation performance is measured by R-value — its ability to resist heat flow. Higher R-values mean more insulating power. Different R-values are recommended for walls, attics, basements and crawlspaces, depending on your area of the country.

Adding Insulation
Insulation works best when air is not moving through or around it. So it is very important to seal air leaks before installing insulation to ensure that you get the best performance from your chosen system of insulation. Choosing which “system” is right for you can depend on many variables, including budget costs as well as your own personal preferences. We offer all of these systems to you and will be happy to discuss specific differences with you. Contact us today for more information.

Fiberglass Insulation
The key to building a comfort conditioned home - knauf fiber glass insulation delivers comfort by providing maximum energy efficiency as well as peace and quiet, resulting in a home with a greater resale value. Insulating a home with Knauf insulation is a home builder’s mark of distinction, a sign that he cares about energy efficiency and comfort. Knauf Insulation meets the toughest indoor air standards in the industry. Indoor Air Quality is a bigger issue to the construction industry than ever before. Studies show that indoor air is 2-5 times more contaminated than the outdoors. And with Americans spending 90% of their time inside, it’s no wonder that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency lists poor IAQ as a top five environmental health threat. As consumers grow more aware of the importance of indoor air quality, the demand for IAQ-friendly homes and workplaces will only continue to increase—and along with it, the demand for low-emitting building products. Knauf Insulation led the movement to address these concerns by being the first manufacturer to earn certification from the GREENGUARD™ Environmental Institute for insulation products in 2002. This third-party IAQ performance certification ensures that Knauf Insulation’s residential and commercial batts and rolls, metal building insulation and Jet Stream® and Perimeter Plus™ blowing insulations meet strict industry IAQ standards.
