Crawl Space Insulation

Is the poor condition of your storage area causing issues throughout your house? If so, new crawl space insulation can solve cold floors, musty odors, and high energy bills.

Reclaim Your Storage With Crawl Space Insulation 

A cold and wet crawl space makes storing and retrieving your possessions when you need them difficult and unpleasant. Your crawl space is supposed to provide bonus storage in your house, not drain your HVAC system, threaten your belongings with moisture or pest damage, or be an expensive part of your energy bills.

Failing fiberglass batts affect not only the temperature and moisture of your crawl space, but also the surrounding areas in your home. For example, an improperly insulated crawl space can lead to cold floors in the room above it. Using modern solutions, Koala Insulation can help you reclaim valuable storage space and comfort throughout your home.

5 Benefits of Upgraded Crawl Space Insulation

When you choose to modernize your crawl space insulation, you’ll see benefits such as:

1. Warmer Floors: A cold crawl space affects the flooring above it. Koala can eliminate drafts and cold spots with new insulation, granting you more comfort in your home.
2. Lower Energy Bills: When an improperly insulated area lets in cold or hot air from outside, your HVAC system kicks on more often and works harder. Enhanced crawl space insulation gives your cooling and heating systems a break, lowering monthly bills.
3. Mold Prevention: Old, failing fiberglass batt insulation allows moisture to build up, creating a breeding ground for mold and bacteria in your walls. Newer insulation methods, such as closed-cell spray foam, serve as better, longer-lasting barriers against outside moisture.
4. Improved Air Quality: Say goodbye to musty air in your crawl space! Our insulation blocks pests and moisture, keeping your space cleaner and healthier.
5. Long-Term Durability: Spray foam insulation is easy to install and lasts long, ultimately supporting your lasting comfort and your home’s value.

Crawl Space Insulation FAQs

Find fast answers to your most pressing questions about crawl space insulation:

Do all crawl spaces need insulation?

Not every building code requires crawl spaces to have insulation. However, having it improves comfort and energy efficiency in your home.

Is spray foam better than fiberglass?

Spray foam has a higher R-value than fiberglass, meaning it's better at preventing heat flow into and out of your home through the walls. It also provides structural strength, airtight sealing, and long-term energy efficiency.

Will crawl space insulation help with odors?

Yes, crawl space insulation will stop odors from traveling into the rest of your home. Removing old, musty insulation can also help.
