Did you know that most homes were built with inadequate insulation? Insulation saves money, increases home comfort, and protects the environment by reducing energy use! The U.S. Department of Energy states that the typical U.S. family spends on average $1,500 each year on energy. Almost half of that comes from heating and cooling expenses. According to their studies, each home can save up to 50% on their heating and cooling by increasing the amount of insulation in their home! Adding insulation to these areas of your home can help reduce your bills and prepare for winter.
