Your insulation plays an important role in maintaining your home’s comfort throughout the seasons. It serves as a line of defense for keeping warm and cold air from escaping your home. It can even lessen your air conditioning costs by up 20%.
Make sure to include your home insulation on top of your maintenance checklist to keep your home cozy and energy-efficient all year round. Here are some of the signs you need an upgrade:
Uneven Temperatures
Proper insulation significantly contributes to regulating your indoor temperature and keeping heat out of your home. If you notice that some rooms are hotter than the other, your insulation might already be deteriorating because of mold or condensation. You can run your hand near the ceiling or along exterior walls to check for issues.
Ice Build Up
Aside from ice dams developing along the roof’s edge, you can identify a lack of insulation when ice forms on one area of your room and not in the other portions. Likewise, when snow melts in a certain spot, your insulation is allowing excessive heat to escape through the walls. To prevent further harm to your home, turn to us for ice dam removal services. We’ll help you get your home in top shape to prevent this problem from occurring again.
High Energy Costs
When your insulation is insufficient, damaged, or old, your energy costs may skyrocket. This is because your heating and cooling systems have to work harder to keep your living space cozy. If your insulation starts to wear out, you might notice a gradual increase in your monthly bills. Make sure to have your home assessed by an expert like WMBG Home Improvement to maximize your home’s energy efficiency.
