3 Reasons Why Fall is a Great Time to Insulate Your Home

Fall has finally arrived in North Texas, and homeowners from Keller to Euless are enjoying the crisp mornings and pleasant afternoons. While your air conditioner finally gets a break, fall is actually a great time to assess your home’s insulation. Do you have rooms that are always warmer or more humid than the rest of your house in the summer? Or areas that now feel a little chilly even when the heat kicks on? Don’t wait until you’re shivering under a pile of blankets this winter. Act now before much colder temperatures arrive in a few months! A few reasons to insulate your home in the fall include:

1. Start saving on electricity bills sooner. While insulation prices are the same throughout the year, you’ll enjoy immediate cost savings on your energy bills once your new insulation is installed. Why wait until the freezing temperatures hit and your bills are already through the roof? Insulate before those high bills arrive to start seeing lower energy costs right away.
2. Easier scheduling. Summer and winter are generally the busiest times for insulation installers. Whether you’re sweating or shivering, you don’t want to wait weeks to address temperature issues in your home! Many people don’t think about insulation when temperatures are mild and comfortable, so booking your insulation project in the fall can mean more flexibility in scheduling and faster completion times.
3. Stay healthier during cold, flu, and allergy season. Old insulation can become contaminated by pests, rodent feces, and mold. Removing and replacing old insulation will dramatically improve the air quality inside your home. In addition, those who suffer from seasonal allergies know that fall can be one of the worst times of year for pollen, ragweed and other allergens in North Texas. Re-insulate now to reduce allergens and pollutants in your home so you can breathe fresher, cleaner air and feel better this winter.

North Texas weather can turn on a dime! Fall may bring warm, sunny days followed by a freeze warning a few hours later. Calling Koala Insulation of Greater Fort Worth today will ensure you are prepared for whatever Mother Nature throws our way in the coming months.
