Floor Insulation: More Dollars and Comfy Feet For You

Your floor is costing you money. Even when you don't walk on it, it's costing you money, and you don't even know how or why.

Floor insulation, as part of a complete home insulation package, is an effective way to combat dollars flying out of your house or, more accurately, walking across the floor and out the door. If you have floors over spaces that are not heated, such as crawlspaces, garages, and basements then you are probably spending more money for a warm, comfortable home than necessary.

And there's nothing worse than waking up on a brisk fall morning and having to walk on uncomfortabgly cold floors. Floor insulation is your solution. Not only do you save money from dramatically reducing your home's heat loss, thus having to run your heater less, you also get more comfortable feet. Did you know that your roof and ceiling account for 60% of your homes exposure to the outside? That's a lot of space where heat, and dollars, can be escaping.

Maybe a few years ago, when energy was always cheap and plentiful, heat loss from your floors was not so important. But today, with energy costs rising dramatically, floor insulation is a step you need to take. You will get a more comfortable home and save money. There's really no downside to that.
