Properly Installed Insulation

Heating and cooling costs account for approximately 50%-70% of the energy used in a house. In an ENERGY STAR qualified home, insulation is inspected for proper installation and maximum performance.

Many different types of insulation may be used in an ENERGY STAR qualified home. Whether your home contains blown insulation or insulation batts, ENERGY STAR homeowners can rest assured that they are reaping the benefits of properly installed insulation. In addition to the money-saving benefits, properly installed insulation muffles outside noise blanketing the home in comfort and quiet.
