What does insulation actually do?
Insulation in your home performs several functions. Primarily it reduces heat flow into or out of your home, thus reducing your heating and cooling costs. Insulation also helps in reducing outside noise. When the walls and ceiling is well insulated it reduces the sound transmitted through the walls and ceiling. In addition, a well-insulated home will help to increase the resale value of your home, as it creates a more energy efficient home.
