Even in Orlando, winter temperatures can leave your home feeling chilly in certain rooms, and rising heating costs can be frustrating. Many homeowners think their heating system alone will keep the house comfortable, but without proper insulation, heat escapes through attics, walls, floors, and crawl spaces. Koala Insulation of Orlando Central specializes in professional winter insulation upgrades that improve comfort, reduce drafts, and lower energy bills for Orlando families.
Signs Your Home Needs Insulation
Recognizing the signs of heat loss is the first step toward improving your home’s energy efficiency:
- Uneven room temperatures with cold spots
- Drafts near windows, doors, and vents
- Floors that feel unusually cold, especially tile or hardwood
- Higher energy bills despite normal thermostat use
Homes with these issues are prime candidates for insulation upgrades. Acting now can prevent further energy waste and increase comfort this winter.
Areas Where Heat Escapes
Certain areas of a home are more prone to winter heat loss:
- Attics: A poorly insulated attic allows heat to rise and escape, leaving your home cooler.
- Crawl Spaces & Floors: Cold air from beneath the house can make floors uncomfortable and cause uneven temperatures.
- Walls: Older walls or those with degraded insulation let heat escape easily.
- Windows & Doors: Gaps and leaks around frames allow warm air to escape, increasing energy use.
