Is insulation necessary in a Lincoln Log Home?
Wood is a natural insulator, one of the best. A concrete wall would need to be ten feet thick to equal the insulation qualities of our eight inch thick logs. Wood is six times better than brick, 1600 times better than aluminum. Consideration should be given to properly insulating floors and roof. We recommend the use of storm or insulating windows. The old adage “You pay for insulation whether you install it or not” has never been more true than today. With constantly rising utility costs, it is wise to make your home as energy efficient as possible.
