With the holiday season upon us, it’s time to take a moment to think about what really matters. Everyone loves to buy the latest and greatest toys and technology, and while there’s nothing wrong with this, gifts like this won’t do your family any favors if you can’t ever seem to get your home comfortable. Home comfort can make all the difference in the world when it comes to getting through a long Illinois winter, and we’ve got just what you need—high-efficiency cellulose insulation.

 

Why Cellulose Insulation?

Anyone who has ever upgraded the insulation in their home knows that there are a myriad of options out there to choose from. What often goes overlooked, however, is that not all of these are created equal. Fiberglass batts, for example, aren’t nearly as effective as sprayed insulation when it comes to keeping a home warm and toasty. At the top of the heap is cellulose insulation, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better option when looking to upgrade your home.

 

When compared with other forms of insulation, cellulose is across the board more effective at helping to keep conditioned air inside of the home while also ensuring that outside air doesn’t have the chance to enter. Cellulose is also much better for the environment than many other forms of insulation and doesn’t contribute to poor indoor air quality, making it the perfect choice for those who are particularly health conscious.

 

Cellulose + Air Sealing = A Winning Combination

Even just insulating your attic with cellulose insulation can make a big difference when it comes to energy efficiency. If you’re looking to get the most out of home performance, however, cellulose must be combined with quality air sealing techniques. You may not realize it, but chances are your home is loaded with microscopic cracks and gaps that are allowing indoor air to escape and outdoor air to enter. Air sealing fixes these issues, and when combined with insulation, helps you get the most out of energy efficiency in your home.
