It’s been a long, cold winter but spring is right around the corner! With warmer weather on the horizon, it’s a great time to start thinking about home energy and comfort improvement projects like an insulation replacement.
With new insulation in your Northern Virginia, Washington DC, or Maryland home, you’ll enjoy benefits like:
More comfortable indoor temperatures
Lower heating and cooling costs
Better indoor air quality
Noise reduction
Here’s why you should pick up the phone and call an insulation contractor near you, like Home Energy Medics, this spring:
Keep Your Home Cooler in the Summer
Most of us think about insulation as a way to keep our homes warmer during the winter, but insulation is just as effective at keeping our homes cool in the summer. By scheduling insulation services this spring, you’ll be setting yourself up to enjoy a cool and comfortable summer. And, because insulation provides year-round benefits, you’ll rest easy knowing that your home will be ready to handle the cold next winter.
Save Money on Your AC Bills
During the summer months, insulation creates a barrier that makes it harder for outside heat to penetrate your home. With less heat coming in, it will be easier for your air conditioner to maintain a stable, comfortable temperature inside your home. As a result, your energy bills will go down and you’ll be able to enjoy lower cooling costs. Think of all the fun, summer activities you can spend that extra cash on!
Even better, your savings won’t stop when cooler weather comes back. Insulation helps you avoid high energy bills all year long.
Beat the Rush By Scheduling Insulation Services in the Spring
Most homeowners wait until they’re dealing with a serious home comfort issue during the hottest or coldest time of the year to call an insulation auditor. By scheduling during the spring, you can beat the rush and get your home performance services taken care of without having to wait months for an appointment.
Keep Pollen Out of Your Home This Allergy Season
Without proper insulation and air sealing, your home is susceptible to outdoor air infiltration. In the spring and summer months, outdoor air can carry pollen into your home, making allergy season a whole lot worse for you and your family. By making insulation services a priority this spring, you can keep allergens out and maintain healthy indoor air quality.
Get the Most Out of Your Insulation Upgrade by Starting With an Energy Audit
Before getting started with home performance services like an insulation installation, you should schedule an energy audit.
An energy audit is a comprehensive assessment of your home’s performance. It includes a visual inspection of the interior and exterior as well as a variety of testing services, including a blower door test and infrared camera analysis, to identify specific problem areas and inefficiencies. By conducting an audit, we’ll be able to find out where your insulation is lacking so that we can make targeted improvements.
