Prepare for the Summer Heat With New Insulation Now | Koala Insulation

Spring Has Sprung

Spring has made its arrival in our area, and we couldn’t be more excited about it! We love this time of year as the bluebonnets start to bloom and our community comes together to enjoy all that a classic Texas spring and summer has to offer.

While you are getting ready to plan out the coming months, don’t forget to prepare your home for the change in season. We explain the benefits of a spring insulation installation below, so check it out.

Take Control of Your Allergies

If the spring makes you sneeze, you aren’t alone! Seasonal allergies are a common ailment for many of us, and the pollen levels at this time of year can make being outside miserable. Did you know that your insulation has a direct impact on your symptoms inside your home as well?

A poorly insulated home is vulnerable to air leaks and drafts, which can carry in uncomfortable air as well as things like pollen and dust. Over time, the pollen can make its way into your HVAC system and can transfer all over your home. Upgrading your insulation now can help you feel better this season and for many seasons to come.

The Texas Heat

Who would we be if we didn’t like the Texas weather? Of course, we do! However, that doesn’t mean your home necessarily does.

If your walls and attic are not properly insulated, the summer season can be really hard on your home. As the temperatures heat up outside, that humid and moist air will sneak its way into your home and will make your living areas really uncomfortable.

In addition, it will rise too quickly into your attic and can cause sweltering temperatures of up to 150 degrees up there! Excess heat is not healthy for your attic because it can lead to lingering moisture and can even cause mold growth. Excess heat in the attic will aslo increase your utility bills!

By insulating and ventilating your home right now, your house will be able to more efficiently stop that hot air from coming in the house and move that hot air out of the attic to keep you cool all summer.

Enjoy Your Insulation’s Benefits Now

Another positive about tackling your insulation project now is that your home will be ready to keep you cool at the start of the summer and will work hard for you day in and day out all season. You will enjoy lower energy bills as well starting now and for years to come. Get ahead of the busy summer by calling us today! Don't forget to ask about how you can get up to a $1200 tax credit when you upgrade your insulation!
