Between the snow and freezing temperatures we get in winter, it’s bound to get cold in your home. That being said, let’s discuss how you can optimize your home’s energy efficiency. The best way to ensure your home remains comfortable all season long is to insulate.

While there are several options when it comes to insulating your home, below are the areas you probably need it most:

Exterior Wall - Blown-in insulation is one of the best, most affordable options. This kind of insulation provides a continuous layer of warmth that can make a huge difference in your energy bills.

Cathedral Ceiling - If you have cathedral ceilings at home, insulating them can enable ceiling temperatures to stay close to room temperatures, allowing the warm air in your home to distribute evenly.

Basement - Properly insulating your basement can not only save you money, but also create a more dry and safe living space. Whether your basement is finished or not, insulating it can reduce heat loss in the foundation of your home and shield against damp air.

Attic - Your roof is another area that’s worth insulating. Why? Because it can help you save on heating costs and better your home’s overall comfort. But before you do, make sure you address any air seals and leaks you may have.
