Is Wall Insulation Necessary for Homes & Buildings?
Walls are one of the biggest sources of air leaks in homes and buildings, so insulating them is essential. To stay energy-efficient and comfortable all year, our insulation contractors follow the industry’s best practices for placing and maintaining wall insulation.
For best results, insulation should be installed in these places:
- Foundation walls above ground level
- Exterior walls
- Foundation walls in heated basements
- Walls between living spaces and unconditioned garages or shed roofs
- Foundation walls of unvented crawl spaces (as an alternative to floor insulation)
What Type of Wall Insulation Should I Use?
Different materials can be installed in your walls, including blown-in/loose-fill, batts and spray foam, but it can depend on your home or building’s structure.
For existing homes, blown-in insulation should be used. The dense-pack installation technique for this can help protect against air leaks and doesn’t disturb finished areas of the home too much.
For remodeling jobs where wall cavities will be open, consider a two-part spray foam insulation. Materials often used in unfinished walls include blanket insulation, rigid foam, concrete block insulation and structural insulated panels.
Insulation R-Value Needed for Walls
Choosing the proper R-value for the insulation in your walls is critical. ENERGYsmart Library explains that 2×4 walls can hold R-13 or R-15 batt insulation. R-19 or R-21 products can be installed in 2×6 walls.
Installing wall insulation with the proper R-value for your home or building in Miami can help:
- Maximize energy efficiency and reduce your energy bills
- Make your home or building a more comfortable space (if your home is drafty and cold in winter or too warm in summer, you likely need more exterior wall insulation)
- Improve the efficiency of your air conditioner and furnace
- Reduce noises from outside and between different rooms inside
- Contribute to a healthier environment
