The Benefits of Blown-In and Spray Foam Insulation
If your heating bill has been out of control these last few months, you may be looking for new ways to make your home more efficient. New or added insulation can be a great way to make your home more comfortable while lowering your monthly energy bill.
But with all of the different options out there, it can be hard to decide what type of insulation is best for your home! Two options that we like to offer for our customers are blown-in insulation and spray foam insulation.
Minimal Construction Needs
One of the reasons we like to offer these insulation types to homeowners is because they can easily be added to an already existing home. Other insulation materials like batt or fiberglass insulation can require a more extensive construction process, while these two types can be added to existing walls and spaces.
For blown-in insulation, a small hole is drilled into your wall and the insulation is blown right into place. Once it is filled, the hole is patched and you are all set with new insulation!
It can also be easily blown into large areas of your home, like up in your attic space.
The Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam insulation is a great option when you are looking to cover hard-to-reach areas like the corners of your attic or in your basement crawl spaces. These areas often have more gaps or air leaks as well since they are not our main living areas and can be susceptible to moisture issues or mold growth if they aren’t properly sealed.
Spray foam insulation expands as it dries, so it can seal up any space to block those air leaks. It can even help keep out pests and bugs!
If your home is more airtight, it will help reduce the amount of energy your home needs to remain at uniform temperature.
Covering Large Areas
Another great benefit is that blown-in insulation and spray foam insulation can cover large areas really quickly. Places like your attic or basement that need a thicker or more comprehensive layer of insulation can benefit from this process.
Although they are two very different materials, they both are resistant to fire, moisture and mold. They also can provide years of comfort and are incredibly durable. Our Koala team can help you choose the right insulation material for your project.
