Top 5 Reasons to Get an Insulation Retrofit in Baltimore
Insulation is, by design, relatively invisible in your home. Because of this, many people don’t think about the state of their current insulation because they assume it’s working as intended.
However, studies have shown that over 90% of homes in the United States are improperly or under-insulated. While similar studies aren’t available for commercial buildings, chances are, if you weren’t the one who owned the building when the insulation was installed, it might be time to think about the state of your insulation.
What is “retrofitting” insulation?
“Retrofitting” insulation simply means installing insulation after the structure has already been built. If your home does not have insulation, it is worth the time and cost to consider retrofitting. If you can feel drafts or uneven interior temperatures, then insulation is highly recommended to create a comfortable space that is energy efficient.
Retrofitting can involve simply supplementing your existing insulation or replacing it altogether. It can also refer to re-installing insulation if it was not installed properly the first time or the insulation was old or damaged.
