Comparing Fiber Glass and Cellulose Insulation

Whether your pocketbook or the planet is your chief concern, energy efficiency can add up to a lot of savings. Reducing energy demand reduces the amount of fossil fuel combustion needed to heat and cool homes, which in turn decreases the amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere. In terms of your pocketbook, reducing your energy consumption means lower utility bills. While there are many things you can do to increase your home’s energy efficiency, one of the most inexpensive ways is to install additional insulation. Before Choosing Your Insulation Things to consider when choosing an insulation product include ease of application, thermal performance and value. However, you should also consider the overall lifetime performance of an insulation product as well as its related safety aspects prior to purchase and installation.
