Can Ceiling Insulation Help You Save Money?

If you dread opening your utility bill each month and seeing the amount you have to pay for energy charges, you're probably searching for ways to lessen that financial blow by reducing your home's energy consumption.  You might be surprised but by calling a Koala Insulation of Cincinnati expert you can see a huge difference in houses with inadequate ceiling insulation.

Ceiling Insulation Saves

Effective ceiling insulation is the best barrier against the summer heat and the winter cold.  Ceiling insulation is generally necessary on the upper side (the non-visible side) of your top-story ceiling to prevent heat flow from rising through the ceiling and escaping out through a ventilated roof. In most houses, that means it will need to be placed in the attic space, on the "floor" of the attic, which is usually not a real floor but just the other side of the ceiling. Adding or topping off ceiling insulation can show a great impact to your home's energy bills.

Benefits of Ceiling Insulation:

• Increase Home Comfort
• Avoid Moisture Damage
• Improve Indoor Air Quality
• More Environmentally Friendly
• Sustainability
• Save on Energy Costs

Most likely you already have some ceiling insulation in place in your home. It is a standard part of any new construction, so it has to be put in when the house is built. But if you have an older home or your house has suffered certain problems like bats in the attic, that insulation is probably in bad shape and needs to be replaced. Or, it's possible it has compressed over time or been shifted around and can't provide adequate coverage anymore. If any of these apply to your home it is a great time to reach out to Koala Insulation of Cincinnati.
