10 Ways Insulation Saves You Money on Energy Bills
Studies show that insulation is one of the most effective ways to save money on energy bills. Insulation keeps your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer, reducing your need for heating and cooling systems. It also helps reduce noise pollution by keeping sound from leaking into other rooms or outside. And it can help you avoid expensive repairs like a leaky roofing or damaged pipes because insulation prevents moisture from getting inside walls or under floors or where it would otherwise cause damage.
1)Attic Insulation
Adding insulation to your attic can be one of the most effective ways to cut your energy bills. In a typical home, about half the heat is lost through the ceiling. The standard insulation is not very good. Cellulose is better because it can make your walls twice as good.
2) Seal Foundation Air Leaks
Sealing cracks around windows, doors, siding, utility lines can reduce heating bills. Common air leaks in the home are in the basement walls, around furnace ducts or nearby chimneys, around wiring holes that penetrate ceilings or floors, and recessed lights. Many of these areas can be easily sealed with caulk, foam gaskets or spray polyurethane foam.
3) Add Insulation to Uninsulated Crawl Spaces
Adding insulation to an uninsulated crawl space is one of the most cost-effective ways to save money on energy bills this summer. By making sure your crawl space isn't letting hot outside air into your house, you'll keep more cool air inside where it belongs. The insulation will also help prevent moisture buildup by limiting the transfer of moisture-laden air from the crawl space into occupied areas.
4) Find Air Leaks
Sealing all your home's air leaks is one of the most cost-effective things you can do to increase energy efficiency and reduce energy bills.
Luckily, one simple way to do this is by using an infrared camera that helps you identify these areas in your home. Test your house for leaks during the day while it's warmer outside than inside. Then close off some registers (or shut down HVAC system) to see if the temperature difference diminishes overnight when there is essentially no sun heating or cooling your house. You may be surprised by how many ways cool air escapes your home.
Orange Park Insulation specializes in providing affordable, reliable air duct cleaning service in Orange Park, Fl. Clean air ducts improve the quality of your home or business and reduce unwanted dust, dirt, pollen, pet dander, Smoke Odor & Mold spores in the air you breathe!
5) Roof Insulation
Roof insulation can help keep cool air from escaping through the roof. If your roof is not insulated, you can reduce the amount of heat being lost by closing off some registers or shutting down your HVAC system.
6)Ceiling Insulation
One of the best ways to save energy is by adding insulation to the ceiling. Adding insulation to your attic, for example, can be one of the most effective ways to cut your energy bills. In a typical home, about half the heat is lost through the ceiling. The standard insulation is not very good. Cellulose is better because it can make your walls twice as good.
7) Wall and Floor Insulation
Adding insulation to your attic, walls, crawl space or foundation can help improve home energy efficiency this winter.
The first step is adding insulation on the unfinished side of your attic joists after you cut a small hole in the ceiling. If you have a finished ceiling, perhaps you could do that from underneath if possible or find another way through an unfinished part of your basement. In either case, sealing the gaps once insulation is added will prevent cold air from seeping into living spaces during colder months.
One of the best ways to save on your heating bill is by insulating the floor. This can be done by adding some insulation under your carpet or hardwood floors, but the best way to do it is with a radiant barrier. The new high-density foam insulation provides R-values up to 16 per inch.
8) Seal Gaps Around Windows & Doors with Caulk This Winter
In addition to caulking windows and doors, you could also add weatherstripping around window and door jambs. This can significantly improve home energy efficiency this winter by preventing cold air from seeping in through cracks, which cuts heating bills.
9) Get a Programmable Thermostat
Programmable thermostats allow you to set temperatures for different times of the day, automatically adjusting them so that your home is heated or cooled only when it's needed. You can save up to $150 per year. According to one study, setting back your thermostat by 10°F for 8 hours can save about 3 percent on home heating costs and 20 percent on cooling bills.
10) Air Leaks Around Electrical Outlets & Switch Plates
Sealing gaps around electrical outlets and switch plates can help reduce drafts that leak air conditioning in the summer and heat on the winter.
You should also caulk around skylights and recessed lights.
If you want to save money on your energy bills, it’s time to start thinking about installing one or more of these insulation applications. Insulation is the cheapest and most effective way of saving on heating and cooling costs because it reduces heat transfer from outside sources, such as wind or sun through windows, floors and ceilings. Orange Park Insulation specializes in residential and commercial building insulation services that will keep your home safe all year long for a price you can afford.

We have a variety of home insulation options to fit your insulation requirements.
1) Spray Foam Insulation is an effective way to insulate your home because it fills in any cracks or gaps that may be present, which makes it the perfect for filling in between walls and around windows. Spray foam insulation can also provide a barrier against sound, moisture and pests. The expanding foam seals all leaks and crevices that are found in your home or commercial space. We use specialized equipment to make sure the job is done right the first time, which helps save you money. Spray foam insulation is a great option for those looking to upgrade their insulation. The best part of spray insulation is the quick, clean and easy installation.
If you've ever heard of expanding foam, this is basically what it sounds like. There is no need to worry about your home being cold in winter or hot in summer. This project will not only meet your needs for energy efficiency but also provide ease in the process of home comfort. Spray foam insulation has been used by professionals in Orange Park, Fl for numerous jobs and projects.
2) Loose Fill Insulation is blown into attics with an electric blowing machine to fill all open areas within the structure; same process as our batt insulation services except loose fill does not come pre-cut to fit specific spaces like our batts do. Once blown into place, loose fill insulation will expand to fill any space around wiring or other obstructions. Loose Fill Insulation can also be blown between the studs in an unfinished wall cavity, which fills the spaces and helps improve energy efficiency this winter.
3) Batt Insulation is designed to be cut easily around obstructions making it great for filling in between electrical boxes, wiring or plumbing lines. Our pre-cut insulation comes in many different sizes that will fit into tight spaces within wall cavities or unfinished ceilings - just roll them out, cut them with a utility knife and place them inside the walls. Placing insulation between studs helps prevent drafts if installed correctly by adding an extra layer of protection around your home's frame. We offer fiberglass insulation as well as cellulose insulation because customers often ask which one they should choose - both are equally effective!
3) Blown in Insulation is a great option for those looking to insulate crawl spaces and garages. We will blow in cellulose insulation with added moisture protection to prevent water damage, which comes from the ground. It can be applied inside or outside your home with no construction required. We will pack the cellulose insulation tightly into your ceiling, walls and floor using a special machine with rotating paddles that blows trapped air out of the material helping it settle into place.
Blown-in Insulation is perfect for attics and crawl spaces where you need to cover large areas efficiently - saving time and money. We provide cellulose, fiberglass or mineral wool insulation materials depending on what will fit your needs best. Blown in cellulose insulation is best for the environment because it's made from recycled newspaper and is a sustainable alternative to fiberglass insulation.

Do you want to learn how to make your house more energy-efficient?
If you're like most people, insulation isn't on your radar. However, it's important in keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It also helps reduce noise from outside sources and between rooms. And if your home was built before 1980, there's a good chance it has little to no insulation.
Why is insulation important? According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), proper insulation and air sealing can reduce your energy bills by up to 50 percent; prevent heat loss, which means less money spent on heating; and lower greenhouse gas emissions responsible for climate change. Sound too good to be true? It's not! There are plenty of ways to make your house more energy-efficient, but none are as quick and easy as insulating your attic.
Let's look at just how important insulation truly is. Insulation can prevent cool air or heat loss through the following areas:
Fireplace Ducts & Vents – Heat can escape right through your vents and ducts if they're not properly insulated. This also poses a fire hazard.
Attic Floors – If heat escapes from below, it can seep into your living space. Plus insulation will keep the hot air that rises to the top from getting in.
Basement Walls – Heat loss from your basement walls can cause the temperature in your living space to fluctuate.
Walls – Every time cool air escapes, it's replaced by warmer air outside. Insulation keeps your conditioned air inside and blocks the summer heat from getting in.
Ceilings – Heat frequently escapes through ceilings, especially those with exposed beams or trusses.
When working on your insulation, make sure you get all areas of the house including beneath floorboards and around windows. The DOE also says it's important to check crawl spaces for proper insulation, replace or repair damaged insulation, seal any holes or gaps with caulk or weather stripping, and clean your return air vents.
Orange Park Insulation offers the best customer service and is eager to help find out how we can help you make your home more energy-efficient. Need advice? Contact us today and we'll be sure to guide you on the right track! And, we offer a variety of services that will surely benefit your home.
