5 Reasons to Insulate in Spring in St. Louis

March 20, 2022

Spring has sprung and your spring cleaning honey-do list is getting long.  The temperature are unpredictable - freezing nights and hot days. In St. Louis, thus calls for wearing layers!  Get your hand off the thermostat and regulate your home's comfort in a smarter way: Insulation. 

1. Reduce Allergies

Once the trees bloom, allergens in St. Louis can be unbearable. Pollen and dust can easily find their way into your home if you don’t have proper insulation in place. Insulation, Air sealing, and Spray foam all keep allergens outside and improve air quality inside. 

2. Regulate Indoor Temperatures 

Spring temperatures can easily swing from 30 to 75 in a single day. Rather than reaching for your thermostat every few hours, you can regulate the internal home temperatures with proper insulation.

3. Prepare for the Summer Heat

Summers in St. Louis can break 3-digit temperatures.  In the attic, temperatures can soar well above 150 degrees! It's no wonder under-insulated homes struggle to keep it comfortable. Radiant barriers and solar attic cans will reduce the attic temperatures while air sealing and insulation will keep your hard earned A/C in your house and keep the heat out.

4. Save Money

Upgrading your home's insulation during the spring let's you reap the rewards all summer long. Energy costs are at an all time high in St. Louis, and your bills will be extra high to cool your home during the summer heat. Upgrading your insulation in the spring can save up to 30% or more on your summer electric bill, and will help extend the life of your HVAC system as it gets a break.

5. Convenient Scheduling

Summer time is the busiest month for insulation installers, so scheduling ahead in spring can ensure a fast installation and the best prices.
