Proper Insulation is an affordable method to lower you energy bills. Let’s face it, it gets HOT in Central Texas. It can be down right unpleasant not to have air conditioning in the summer months. However many people aren’t getting the maximum efficiency out of their A/Cs.

Why Insulate Your House?

Heating and cooling account for 50 to 70% of the energy used in the average American home. Inadequate insulation and air leakage are leading causes of energy waste in most homes.

Insulation

* saves money and our nation’s limited energy resources
* makes your house more comfortable by helping to maintain a uniform temperature throughout the house, and
* makes walls, ceilings, and floors warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.

The amount of energy you conserve will depend on several factors: your local climate; the size, shape, and construction of your house; the living habits of your family; the type and efficiency of the heating and cooling systems; and the fuel you use. Once the energy savings have paid for the installation cost, energy conserved is money saved – and saving energy will be even more important as utility rates go up.

Many homes are only built to minimum insulation requirement. Our trained insulation specialist can recommend the appropriate amount to give you the best savings on your energy bill.

We are an Owens Corning Certified Preferred contractor and offer expanding Atticat blown-in attic insulation.

What is the R value

Insulation

What is R value?

R value ratings are used to measure insulation’s ability to resist heat flow. The higher the R value, the more effective it is.  Your house insulation should be purchased based on its R value, not thickness or weight.

Will the critical value of r decrease as n increases Some quick facts about R value are:

• One type maybe thicker or thinner, but if the R value is the same they should insulate equally.

• R value performance testing is done in a 70 F environment with no air movement. Ironically enough, when you need insulation the most you’re generally not in these ideal temperatures or conditions. This can result in the rated house R value being higher than the actual effective R value.

• The average recommended R value of insulating material for basement insulation in North America is R-12.

• The R value in house insulation is substantially lowered when there’s any air or water/moisture leaks.

• The standard R value for house insulation varies based on climate and temperature

• 1 inch of insulation is = to 30 inches of concrete.

There are different types of house insulation materials, each having a different R value.

Some of the best insulation materials are:

• House Insulation R value of Blown in Cellulose Insulation is 3.70 per inch

• House Insulation R value of Fiberglass Insulation is 3.14 per inch

• House Insulation R value of Expanded Polystyrene is 4.00 per inch

DID YOU KNOW???

60 million out of the 120 million homes in America are under insulated?

Up to 40% of a home’s conditioned air escapes through the attic.

Most older homes only have between 3 to 6 inches of insulation, whereas the Department of Energy recommends and average of 16 depending on location.
