Fluctuating indoor temperatures, high utility bills, constantly running heating and cooling equipment — these are all signs that your house is under-insulated. As you seek to improve the insulation in your home, one of the first places you should start is the exterior walls.
Total Home Performance offers comprehensive wall insulation services for homes along Maryland’s Eastern Shore. We can install high performance insulation in your existing walls with minimal impact on your walls.
Why Is Wall Insulation Important?
Without proper wall insulation, outside temperatures have a greater influence on your indoor comfort. In the summer, outside heat and humidity seep into your home through air leaks and gaps in insulation. In the winter, valuable indoor heat escapes, forcing you to run your heating system nonstop.
Wall insulation makes your house comfortable year-round by controlling the flow of heat. During the summer, it keeps unwanted heat out — especially in south-facing areas of the home where sun exposure is high. During the winter, it keeps valuable heat indoors, right where you want it.
The Benefits of Proper Wall Insulation
When paired with proper air sealing, wall insulation offers a wide variety of benefits.
-
Consistent indoor comfort year-round
-
More efficient home heating & cooling
-
Lower monthly utility bills
-
Better indoor air quality
-
Improved privacy & noise reduction
Types of Insulation
At Total Home Performance, we work with a variety of high performance insulation materials. Cellulose insulation is a great option because it can be blown into existing walls and dense packed to reduce air infiltration. It’s also made from recycled materials and resists settling over time. Fiberglass insulation is another great option that can be blown in over existing insulation and is especially affordable.
