Is Your Home Telling You That You Need More Insulation? | Koala Insula
Did you know that up to 90% of homes aren’t insulated properly? That’s a lot of wasted energy and unnecessarily high energy bills!
If your home doesn’t have the level of insulation that it needs, chances are that it is giving you subtle signs every day. Check out our latest blog below to see if these things are happening around your home.
You Have an Uncomfortable Room
If we were to ask you if there is a room in your house that you actively avoid because it’s always sweltering hot or really chilly, would you be able to easily come up with one? If so, you probably need some insulation in that room.
When your home was being built, it could have been that an exterior wall wasn’t properly insulated or there is a draft coming in through a gap or air leak. Sometimes a problematic room can lead to uncomfortable temperatures throughout your entire home.
Another simple way to tell if your room isn’t insulated properly is if your floors or walls are always cold. If you have to put on slippers before heading downstairs in the morning or if you wake up and your pillow is ice-cold from being against the wall all night, it might be time to look into an insulation upgrade.
You Fight With Your Thermostat
We are all a little different when it comes to our preferred home temperatures. Some of us like to walk around in T-shirts no matter the season, while others love nothing more than cozying up with a blanket from time to time.
Regardless of your preference, you should be able to set your thermostat to your desired temperature and forget about it. If you find that even though you programmed your thermostat at a desired temperature you still find yourself messing around with the temperature and buttons all day, it may be due to your insulation!
Poorly insulated homes have trouble circulating your air efficiently, and the comfortable air may be escaping out of your walls and ceilings faster than it should. This leads to a yo-yo cycle where your HVAC system is constantly turning on and off to meet your desired temperature.
Your Wallet Is Lighter Than Usual
A poorly insulated home will also cost you when it comes to your monthly budget. If your conditioned air is escaping too quickly out of your home, your HVAC system will have to work in overdrive to make up for the losses. Over time, this will lead to a hefty energy bill with no added benefit.
