Owning a home in the gem of the southern area Chicago suburbs comes with a few trade offs, like leaving the traffic and city noise behind, and trading it for quiet and clean neighborhoods with excellent schools. Living in Palos Heights and Palos Park keeps Chicago an arm’s length away (or just a 50-minute metro ride), without losing access to what you and your family like best about the Windy City, like the Chicago Loop or Wrigleyville.
But just because you may have traded the urban life for the calm of the suburbs, it doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice keeping a comfortable and efficient home! Assured Insulation is here to help you with the home renovations you need to keep your home performing at its best, so you can stay comfortable without spending Chicago-sized energy costs.
Understanding the Importance of Insulation
Homeowners often think about the insulation in their home like it is a winters jacket, keeping their home warm during the bitterly cold winters. However, you wouldn’t use your winter jacket when you are headed out on a humid summer day here in Palos Heights, would you? This is where the similarities between home insulation and a winter jacket end.
The role of insulation in the attic, basement, and walls of your home is to slow down the transfer of heat that can happen between your indoor living space, and the unconditioned outdoors. This can keep your home more comfortable in two ways: by stopping the heat of your furnace from escaping in the winter, and by preventing the summer heat from infiltrating your living space during the warmer months. We offer many professional insulation services, including:
Air Sealing
Sealing up the air holes and tiny gaps in your home’s construction will increase the effectiveness of your insulation. Air sealing also prevents excess contaminants from polluting the air you breathe, and recirculating your air through the ductwork associated with your heating and cooling system. At Assured Insulation, we can locate the amount of leakage in your home using a blower door test, then pinpoint the exact location of those holes using thermal camera imaging.
Keeping Your Home Comfortable and Efficient, for Less.
