Insulation
PrintThe largest contributor to high energy bills in winter and summer months is the movement of heat into and out of your home. Under-insulated homes allow opportunities for this movement, called heat transmission, between the living space and the outside. Heat transmission requires a lot of energy to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures. By properly insulating your attic, walls and floors, you will create a more comfortable and energy-efficient home, while reducing your monthly utility bills.
There are many different types of insulation, which make it possible to find a solution that fits your home, budget and comfort goals. When paired with air sealing (strongly recommended), insulation is the most cost-effective, energy-saving measure for a single-family home.
Does Your Home Need More Insulation? There’s a Rebate for That!
Ensuring your house is properly insulated can make your home more energy efficient and more comfortable. Insulation reduces heat loss during winter and heat gain during the summer.
Many older homes have less insulation than newer homes, but even newer homes can benefit from additional insulation. Adding insulation and air sealing your home can provide the biggest bang for your buck in energy savings and overall comfort.
Investing in proper insulation reduces energy consumption, helping to reduce your power bill.
Rebates are available for insulation in attics, floors or walls of existing stick-built and manufactured homes.
Insulation effectiveness is rated by R-value, measuring how well the insulation prevents the flow of heat into or out of the home. The higher the R-value, the greater the effectiveness. Where the additional insulation is added, the increase in R-value determines the amount of the rebate.
- Rebates for attic insulation can range from $0.09 to $2.30 per square foot
- Rebates for floor insulation range from $0.15 to $1.05 per square foot
- Rebate for insulation of exterior walls is $2 per square foot
