Types of Insulation

Wisconsin Home Improvement will take the time to evaluate your home’s unique needs before recommending insulation to best suit your energy efficiency needs. Our insulation options include:

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam offers multiple benefits. Its ability to expand into different spaces and conform to various shapes allows it to provide an excellent air barrier.

Blown-In Insulation

Blown-in insulation typically uses fiberglass or cellulose. Fiberglass is made of recycled plastic and glass, while cellulose is made from fire-retardant plant materials.

How Insulation Works

Insulation slows or stops heat flow, preventing it from moving through walls, floors, ceilings, and roofs. Installing quality insulation provides optimal control over conditioned spaces by maintaining the home’s thermal energy. Instead of heated air escaping through attics and walls, it remains in the home’s interior. Likewise, in summer, less of the outside hot air comes indoors, reducing the burden on your cooling system.

Insulating Your Home Is a Great Return on Investment

Adding insulation to attics, walls, and other spaces provides an excellent return on investment for homeowners. For starters, consider the amount of heat loss caused by under insulating your home. Approximately 40% is lost through the ceiling, 36% is lost through the basement Rim Joist, 14% is exterior walls and the remaining 10% is through windows. Home insulation is by far a less expensive home improvement project than window and door replacement with a much greater impact on energy savings.

Additionally, insulating your home can significantly increase its value, according to the Insulation Institute.  Opting to work with Wisconsin’s only Pearl-certified insulation contractor, Wisconsin Home Improvement, also provides an increase in appraisal value.

Home Insulation Improvements

We can add or replace insulation anywhere it’s needed to improve the comfort of your home. When we perform home insulation assessments, we also look at attic ventilation. This system is critical, working in tandem with attic insulation to create the proper air flow for year-round benefits.

In summer, it prevents a massive accumulation of super-heated air, which can harm roofing shingles and make it harder to cool the rest of the home. On the flip side, in the winter, heated air rises into the attic and can condense, creating moisture issues in attics that lack adequate ventilation.

From insulating attics to basement rim joists and crawlspaces, Wisconsin Home Improvement has your home insulation improvement needs covered.
