Insulated Homes More Comfortable

Insulated homes are actually more
comfortable than would seem war
ranted by the difference in temper
atures caused by the insulation.
The use of insulating board lowers
the surface temperature of the
walls in summer and thus increases
the comfort, because the cooler the
walls, the cooler one feels. In win
ter, the phenomenon is reversed.
The walls are warmer and conSe-
quently help to increase the sensa-
ton of warmneSS.
