Did you know that more than half of the energy you use in your home goes toward heating and air conditioning? If your home has old, damaged, or insufficient insulation, a lot of that energy is wasted, which drives up your heating and cooling bills.

Benefits of an Insulation Upgrade

Attic Insulation 

Because hot air rises, it is important to have sufficient insulation and proper air sealing in your attic to provide a thermal barrier and stop leaks. Icicles and ice dams are signs that too much hot air is leaking out and you need better attic insulation! 

No matter what kind of insulation you currently have in your attic, there is a quick way to determine if you need more. Look across the span of your attic. If your insulation is just level with or below your floor joists, you should add more. If you cannot see any of the floor joists because the insulation is well above them, you probably have enough and adding more is not cost-effective.

Basement & Crawl Space Insulation 

The bottom of your home is one of the most important places to insulate. If you don’t have enough basement or crawl space insulation, cold air will be sucked in through the bottom of your house in the winter, leading to comfort problems and high energy bills. If you have cold floors above your basement or crawl space, you probably need better insulation. 

Wall Insulation 

Do you have certain rooms that are always way too hot or too cold? They might need better wall insulation. Exterior wall insulation stops heat from escaping through your walls in the winter and seeping in during the summer, leading to more comfortable and consistent temperatures throughout your home. It can also dampen noise from traffic and neighbors, making your house quieter. 

Best Types of Insulation for Wisconsin Homes 

There are many types of home insulation, but they’re not all created equal. Some insulation materials perform better than others or are ideal for specific applications. We install several types of insulation and will recommend the best fit for each part of your home. 

Cellulose Insulation 

Cellulose insulation is a sustainable choice made from recycled materials. It is a highly effective insulator that will keep your home more comfortable all year long while reducing your energy bills. It’s also fire-resistant and non-toxic, making it one of the safest insulation materials. 

Spray Foam Insulation 

Spray foam insulation expands to fill the area it’s applied to, which makes it a great option for filling gaps, cracks, and irregular spaces that are hard to insulate with other materials. We generally recommend using spray foam in combination with other materials, like cellulose, for the most effective and affordable solution. 

Wisconsin Insulation Rebates & Incentives 

There are rebate and incentive programs in Wisconsin that will cover some of your insulation costs. We’re an approved contractor with local insulation rebate programs and can help you qualify for savings!

HOMES Rebates 

The new Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) rebates are available in Wisconsin! We are an IRA Registered Contractor and can help you claim HOMES rebates for insulation. The rebate amounts vary based on income level and predicted energy savings from recommended upgrades.

Insulation Tax Credit
