The Home Insulators of Bronxville
Bronxville, NY, 10708
Bronxville is a historic city known for its wonderful and captivating Tudor, Shingle-style and Victorian homes. This makes the city a wonderful place to live with real traditional and style to the homes, but if there is one thing everyone knows about older buildings is their tendency to be susceptible to changes in temperature, getting cold in the winter and hot in the summer. Maintaining a modern level of comfort while enjoying the atmosphere of an older home doesn’t require spending money on expensive heating and cooling equipment. Insulation offers a far better alternative to increase your standard of living.
Insulation can be installed all throughout the home, not just living areas, giving a range of benefits. All too often, especially in older homes, places where heat can be lost are overlooked. The attic is often the hottest part of the house in summer and the coldest part of the house in winter, meaning insulation is a must. As heat rises, good insulation for your attic makes a huge difference to the temperature of your house. Floors and basements can become sources of unwanted heat transfer, with an average of 15% of heat lost beneath your feet. This is also true for working spaces like garages. TheHomeInsulators.com is the best choice for insulation advice in the Bronxville area, thanks to our expertise on the best and most efficient forms of insulation to use in your home.
Insulation reduces the loss of heat in winter, and keeps heat out during summer months. It is all too true that much of the energy used warming and cooling our homes is unnecessarily lost, a waste of good money. Improved insulation may save you up to 40% on heating and cooling bills and is more environmentally friendly than simply cranking up the heat or the air to maintain the health and comfort of your family. Plus, insulation generally pays for itself through energy savings within four to six years.
The Home Insulators offers several different types of home insulation to accommodate every budget. It can be difficult to decide which is the best option for your home, so call us today to schedule a free home energy audit and free insulation estimate. We will assess your property and current insulation prior to making our recommendations. The Home Insulators offers the following type of insulation products:
Batts and Rolls Insulation. This is a very common type of insulation that is currently in many homes. It is also known as blanket insulation because it is flexible and rolled out flat during installation. Batts and rolls are usually made of flexible polyester, rock wool, fiberglass, or recycled paper. It is available in a wide range of sizes that can fit between the studs and joists in your house. This is one of the most cost-effective types of insulation, but we recommend professional installation because improperly installed blanket insulation can lose up to 50% of its effectiveness.
Loose-fill/Blown-in Insulation. Loose-fill insulation is another common type of home insulation that is usually made of tiny particles of foam, fiber, or other materials, such as fiberglass, cellulose, or rock wool. Blown-in insulation works well in a variety of spaces including new wall cavities, existing walls, unfinished attics, and small or hard to reach spaces. This type of insulation requires special equipment and a trained specialist for installation. Let The Home Insulators provide you with a free no-obligation estimate for loose-fill/blown-in insulation.
Rigid Board Insulation. This type of insulation consists of fiberglass or rock wool and is used mainly for insulating air ducts in your home. Rigid board insulation is also an excellent choice for new construction projects, including unfinished walls or new roofs. These boards can be cut to fit various-sized spaces and can also be molded around pipes. If you are considering a home addition or remodel, contact us to discuss how we can help you with rigid board insulation products.
*Spray Foam Insulation. We are proud to offer a superior solution for the residents of White Plains. Spray foam has a higher R-value than batts and rolls, blown-in, or rigid insulation. Spray foam insulation involves two different types of chemical materials that are mixed together, heated, and then sprayed through a specialized hose. The bio-safe foam immediately begins to expand and makes an air tight seal that offers excellent insulation properties. Spray foam is an excellent option for both new homes and older homes.
We recommend spray foam insulation as the best choice for your home insulation needs. You will find that this type of insulation is more expensive, but tends to pay for itself in less than 3 years of purchase. We say yes to spray foam because it not only makes the home more comfortable, but also increases energy efficiency. You will find a drastic change in your energy bills once you have spray foam insulation. Our experts can install this product for you in a day.
