YOUR KEY TO COMFORT – LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY

Efficient and reliable home insulation is the key to comfort, as well as a potential source of significant energy savings. 

According to the Environmental Protection Agency your windows, outdoor faucets, crawl spaces and even your dryer vent allow outside air to seep into your home, while the attic, chimney shaft, recessed lighting and the walls’ rim joists allow inside air to escape.  Look at this EPA chart for more information. The result is an irregular fluctuation in heating and cooling.  You will most likely feel the leaks from windows and doors, but the unseen leaks can be just as wasteful. 

We suggest you start with your attic space, mainly because it encompasses so much “dead space” where heat readily escapes and cold air can enter, depending on the weather.  The attic is also often “home” to rodents, insects, birds and bats that may take advantage of the warmth to build a nest. Over time, their urine and droppings will contaminate and damage your insulation, ruining it entirely.

If your home was built prior to 1980, it’s quite possible that your insulation has degraded, especially in the attic.  If so, you will want to replace it.  The uncontrolled airflow and temperature fluctuations can create a breeding ground for mold and mildew. Our experts will conduct thorough tests to determine whether the integrity of your home’s structure has been compromised, and they can show you how to save money and avoid wasting energy.
