Insulation saves you money, increases home comfort, and protects the environment by reducing energy use. Unless your home was constructed with upgraded energy-efficiency materials, adding insulation to your home will likely reduce your utility bills. A well-insulated home isn’t just good at staying warm; insulation also keeps indoor spaces cool for longer, without using any extra energy. Energy conserved is money saved.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the typical Houston, TX homeowner spends about $1,747 each year on energy bills. DOE statistics show that 44% of a homeowner’s utility bill is just for heating and cooling their home. You may be able to reduce your energy bills by 10% to 50% just by increasing the amount of insulation in your home. Properly insulating your home reduces your ever-increasing cooling and heating costs, improves your comfort, and increases the value of your home.
In the greater Houston area, Energy Star® recommends home insulation between a minimum of R-30 to a maximum of R-60. Depending on your home’s unique situation, Houston AC Repair Pros recommends a minimum of R-38 to a maximum of R-49. Give us a call to check your home’s insulation and provide you with a solution customized for your home.
ASHRAE, the world’s foremost technical society in the fields of heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration recommends:
Adding insulation to your attic. It is the easiest and least expensive way to cool your home.
Blowing insulation into wall cavities, especially in older homes with little wall insulation.
Insulating ducts in the attic. This will keep the attic cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
To add a layer of exterior insulation when replacing siding.
With whole-home attic insulation, you’re improving the environment inside your home by maintaining the temperature and improving air flow. Insulation traps heat inside your home in the winter and makes it difficult for cool air to escape during the summer. A well-insulated Houston home can help keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Improve your comfort year-round with quality insulation services from Houston AC Repair Pros.
If your home isn’t adequately insulated, it’s nearly impossible to achieve a comfortable, cozy home environment. Many of us have experienced a room that’s too warm in the summer or too cold in the winter. Roughly a third of a home’s air leakage comes through ceilings, walls, and floors, so insulating these areas is the key to maximizing your comfort. The EPA estimates that a properly insulated and sealed home can reduce annual energy costs by 15 percent. Air leakage occurs through a variety of areas in your home.
