Your HVAC System and Insulation Make a Great Team | Koala Insulation

While you are busy running to work, driving your kids to soccer practice and cooking dinner, your home is constantly working behind the scenes. Each system within your home works in tandem to help keep you comfortable and accomplish tasks.

When it comes to insulation and your HVAC system, they make the perfect team!

How They Work Together

Our HVAC units run constantly, especially during the heat of a classic Florida summer. As your unit cranks out cooler air, your insulation is working alongside it to keep that cool air in your home and the hot outdoor temperatures outside.

If this process is interrupted or not as efficient as it needs to be, it could be costing you in more ways than one. If you have poor insulation in your home, the cool air that your air conditioner pumps out will escape your home too quickly and be replaced by the hotter air from outside.

The change in temperature will alert your unit to kick on again to pump out even more cool air, and this turns into a vicious cycle all summer. This process could be costing you much more money than you want to be spending on your energy bill.

Supporting Each Other

Upgrading your insulation helps give your HVAC system a much-needed break. If your home is more efficient at retaining its current temperature, it won’t have to turn on as often to try to regulate your thermostat. This directly affects how often it has to cycle, which can increase your HVAC system’s lifespan and need for repairs.

In addition, your HVAC system can support your insulation’s longevity! An efficiently running system helps keep moisture, mold and humid air out of your home. This protects your insulation from being compromised over time, and it also helps ensure that your family is breathing the cleanest air possible inside your home.

How We Can Help

As always, Koala Insulation is here to make sure your home is running as efficiently as possible! We can come out to your home to perform a free evaluation of your home’s insulation using our thermal imaging equipment.
