Home insulation is being increasing adopted by people to make their home energy-efficient and thereby reducing the utility bills. Home insulation not only cuts down the utility bills, but also acts as an effective barrier for sound to enter our homes. It acts as a protective envelope for your home and provides proper insulation against sound and heat.

Home insulation provides thermal comfort to homeowners by restricting the unwanted loss or gain of heat and thus maintaining an optimum temperature throughout the place. The material used in the process depends on the R-value. More the value of R more is the effectiveness of the insulation.

Batt insulation is one of the common types of home insulation. In this, pre-cut panels are installed into the ceilings, wall and floor joists to provide insulation. On the other hand, blown in insulation is another way by which existing structures can be insulated. It provides insulation to areas which had no prior insulation or are in need of additional insulation. In this process, the spaces between the exterior and interior walls of buildings are insulated by filling the wall cavities or the attic. Also, known as loose-fill insulation, it is an economical and easy to install method.

Various types of material are used for blown insulation, such as cellulose, fiberglass or mineral wool. Fiberglass insulation is an energy saving and cost effective insulation method, in which glass fibers are bound together using a binder and are filled in for insulating the structure. It is mainly used for controlling temperature and sound within the insulated areas, thereby increasing the comfort level of the people and reducing the utility bills.

Insulation is becoming the most demanding option for majority of people these days as it helps in reducing carbon footprints and is pocket friendly as well.
