The more energy we consume, the more pollution we produce, which in turn destroys our air, land, and water. Insulating your home will save you money and save the environment we live in. To get the most value for your dollar, insulate well and be sure your attic is properly ventilated. To obtain information or an estimate on insulating your home, look in your local yellow pages under Insulation Contractors. Be sure the contractor you choose is fully insured.
Some states require certification for insulation contractors.
Free estimates are usually available for your home. There are a lot of different types of insulation on the market. Ask your contractor to explain anything you may not be familiar with. Depending on the type of insulation you choose and the work involved, costs can vary from a few cents to a dollar per square foot. If you are getting more than one estimate, make sure each contractor has the same information for your comparison.
