A home s heating and cooling costs can be substantially reduced through correct insulation, air sealing practices, incorporating the correct products and proper installation methods. If your home is as little as 5 to 10 years old, you likely have one of the 46 million under-insulated homes in the , according to the Harvard University School of Public Health. Insulation is one of the lowest cost options for improving the energy efficiency of your and cooling account for 50 to 70% of the energy used in the average American home, according to the Department of Energy.
the thermal resistance of all of the components in the assembly. Adding rigid foam insulation to the exterior of the home is a simple method of increasing the overall thermal resistance of the wall assembly beyond that possible with cavity insulations and thereby increasing the overall efficiency of the home.
