Save Money with Underfloor Insulation | Koala Insulation of Eastern CT

Do you want to know how to help keep your Norwich home cool and comfortable year-round? While purchasing a new coat or two can provide temporary relief, one of the best ways to minimize heat loss from your home is by investing in underfloor insulation. Not only will this make sure that your toes stay nice and toasty on even the chilliest days, but it can also help save money on heating bills too - making it an investment worth considering for any homeowner! In this blog post, we’re going to look at everything there is to know about underfloor insulation, including what types are available, their benefits, and an installation guide.

Control Those Pesky Drafts

A common issue facing many homeowners is air infiltration coming from below their suspended timber floorboards. While liners beneath floors can reduce drafts, they won't completely stop them due to a lack of airtightness around the edges. Installing an insulated barrier between your home's joists will provide a more reliable solution - so you don't have to sacrifice comfort for style this season.

With underfloor insulation, you can look forward to saving 15% on your energy bills, as well as staying cozy in the winter and cool all summer long! By sealing gaps between floors and walls - a common source of heat loss - it helps keep warmth inside when it's cold outside while keeping temperatures down during the warmer months.

As energy costs skyrocket, now is the time to make sure your Norwich home has all insulation it needs - don't forget about the underfloor. It's surprisingly easy to retrofit Koala Insulation of Eastern Connecticut, simply install an access hatch (or create one if needed) and hang nets from underneath that are then filled with quality insulation. Many people overlook their floors when considering cavity walling, but taking this additional step can result in substantial savings over time.

Invest in Quality Underfloor Insulation

Insulating your floors offers several benefits that make it well worth the effort. Not only does insulation reduce external noise and keep out allergens like dust, pollen, bugs, and smoke - but it can also increase the resale value of your home! Investing in quality underfloor insulation is an effective way to not just boost efficiency now but for years down the road as well; making sure you save money on energy bills while safeguarding our planet's future at the same time.

Did you know that updating insulation can cause homeowners to worry about disruption to their homes? But worry not! There are ways to replace the material without causing any damage. For homes with suspended timber floors, Koala professionals can lift floorboards and access materials between joists. In other cases, they may reach all areas via basements or crawl spaces. This ensures the underfloor level is easily accessible for installation or replacement.

4 Ways Underfloor Insulation Improves Your Home 

Thermal Efficiency

Give your property the perfect temperature all year round with underfloor insulation! This innovative solution provides thermal efficiency, so you don't have to overuse heaters and coolers. Why waste money on expensive energy bills when this natural approach can keep home or office temperatures balanced?

Thermal insulation for your floors is an essential component of having a cost- and energy-saving home. Not only will it keep you cozy during cold winter months, but it can also prevent uncomfortable temperatures in the summertime - plus reduce draughts from creeping into those hard-to-reach places. With underfloor insulation, not only are these perks a reality, but healthier air quality indoors awaits too – all working together to save you money on heating and cooling bills.

Air Sealing

Having the right insulation in your home is like having a shield of defense against pesky drafts and debris. If there's no protection between floor joists, however, you can end up with chilly spots all over. Our experienced insulation team will make sure outdoor irritants stay outside while keeping air clean inside by filling any cracks or holes they find - ultimately giving you peace of mind when it comes to comfort!

Vapor Barrier

Did you know that the water from the rain and snow outside can wreak havoc on your home if not taken seriously? Uncontrolled moisture in crawl spaces or basements can quickly lead to costly mold growth, attracting a variety of pests. Having an effective vapor barrier with proper ventilation & drainage is essential for avoiding these issues - so don't wait until it's too late. Invest now in preventative measures before any lasting damage occurs.

Energy Costs

Maximize your savings and minimize your worries by ensuring that you have the best insulation possible for your floors. It's like getting free money - on average, an updated layer of protection can lead to a 15% decrease in heating and cooling bills! But if there is damage or deterioration harming temperature control systems, then those potential savings quickly evaporate as utility expenses skyrocket along with the likelihood of costly repairs.

A cost-effective way to maintain comfortable temperatures inside your home year-round: is extra insulation! Whether it's beneath the crawl space, between ceiling joists, or throughout the basement - by adding protective layers in overlooked areas of your house you can preserve desired warmth during cold weather and block out heat when it's hot outside. Save big on those monthly maintenance bills while keeping that climate control perfect all season long!
