Home Insulation Types Explained

Understanding Different Types of Home Insulation

Home insulation is essential for maintaining energy efficiency and comfort in your home. There are various types of insulation available, each with its own benefits and applications. In this blog post, we will explore some of the most common home insulation types.

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation is a popular choice for many homeowners due to its excellent thermal resistance and air-sealing properties. It expands upon application, filling gaps and creating an effective barrier against heat loss.

Fiberglass Insulation

Fiberglass insulation is one of the most commonly used types of insulation. It is made of fine glass fibers and is available in batts or loose-fill. Fiberglass insulation is cost-effective and provides good thermal performance.

Cellulose Insulation

Cellulose insulation is made from recycled paper products and treated with fire retardants. It is often used in attics and wall cavities and is known for its eco-friendly properties and good thermal performance.

Rigid Foam Board Insulation

Rigid foam board insulation consists of panels of polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, or polyurethane. These panels provide excellent thermal resistance and are commonly used in walls, roofs, and foundations.

Conclusion

Understanding the different types of home insulation can help you make an informed decision for your home’s energy efficiency and comfort.
