Insulation plays a significant role in making a home energy efficient and in the process, lowering utility bills. In the heat of summer, many homeowners face the challenge of maintaining a consistent cool temperature in their home, despite central air or traditional window units. Poor insulation in the walls and attic is often the cause.
Kevin Conrad Heating & Cooling, a Nantucket-based certified HVAC contractor specializing in geothermal heating and cooling solutions, now offers a money saving solution to Cape and Island homeowners – insulation foam. Working closely with industry leader Cea Foam, Conrad provides superior “cool” home comfort.
“Many homeowners assume their house is airtight because they have energy efficient thermal windows. But when you’re trying to cool your home and you have poorly insulated areas, such as the attic, you’re not going to retain that cooler air,” said Kevin Conrad, owner. “There will be a noticeable difference in temperature when you move from room to room, and there will be ‘hot spots’ in the home.”
Insulation foam comes in a liquid state, and it is sprayed on areas where insulation is needed. When dry, the foam looks similar to merengue and effectively seals the home against air leakage. In fact, Conrad has insulation foam as well as a geothermal heating and cooling system in his own home, which makes it extremely energy efficient and comfortable.
“Spray foam insulation is a better and more effective insulation than traditional insulation, which is usually a pink or yellow color and often made of fiberglass,” explained Conrad. “Foam insulation may be applied to all the cracks and crevices where air may escape, which creates an air tight foam barrier, insulating your home against the elements. A properly insulated home is not only more comfortable but saves a considerable amount on energy bills.”
Kevin Conrad Heating & Cooling experts ensure proper installation of insulation foam, with regard to appropriate application thickness, location and temperature for optimum results.
