Things like insulation thickness and placement are often not up to Energy Star’s requirements of R-38. Making sure that insulation is up to standard increases your comfort and decreases your monthly expenses!
In Arizona especially, it’s very important to have insulation that is properly installed. Proper insulation can assure you that both your warm and conditioned air is staying inside the home and not seeping through the walls. Because having a home properly insulated means that the home is better able to hold hot or cold air inside the rooms it means that you won’t need to as much energy to maintain a comfortable and stable temperature. Decreasing your energy consumption in this way is an easy way to decrease your carbon footprint and your monthly bills! A properly insulated home also cuts down on the amounts of allergens and pollutants that would otherwise be able to come from outside of your home.
Insulation gives you the opportunity to maximize your energy usage, payments on monthly bills, and comfort within your home.
