Today we take a deeper look into the benefits of insulation. Check out our latest infographics below.
Energy and Savings
Insulation reduces the amount of energy needed to power the heating and cooling appliances that keep your home comfortable.
As a result, insulation prevents energy waste by maintaining the desired temperature throughout your house while reducing utility bills.
You could save up to 20% of your heating and cooling costs by sealing and insulating your home (source: Environmental Protection Agency).
