Cold spots can make your home feel uncomfortable—even when the thermostat says everything should be warm. The real culprit is often poor or uneven insulation. Koala Insulation of Greater Ann Arbor helps homeowners eliminate cold spots and create consistent, cozy comfort throughout the winter.
Why Cold Spots Happen
Cold areas typically mean your home is losing heat faster in certain places. Common causes include:
- Gaps in wall or attic insulation
- Air leaks around windows, doors, or outlets
- Aging or settled insulation
- Poorly insulated basements or crawl spaces
Koala Insulation of Greater Ann Arbor identifies these problem zones with precision, then recommends the right fix.
How Insulation Helps Eliminate Cold Spots
1. Attic Insulation Upgrades
Your attic is responsible for much of your home’s heat loss. Adding or replacing insulation can:
- Stabilize temperatures
- Reduce drafts
- Improve whole-home comfort
2. Wall Insulation Improvements
If certain rooms feel colder than others, wall cavities may be under-insulated. Dense-pack or blown-in insulation helps fill these gaps without major renovation.
3. Air Sealing for a Tighter Home
Air leaks allow warm air to escape and cold air to creep in. Air sealing boosts insulation performance and prevents chills in:
- Bedrooms
- Living rooms
- Hallways
4. Crawl Space or Basement Insulation
Cold floors are a major indicator of poor lower-level insulation. Upgrading these areas helps heat stay where you need it—inside your home.
Signs Your Home Needs Better Insulation
- Temperature differences from room to room
- High heating bills
- Drafts even when windows are closed
- Rooms that never get warm enough
