How to Fuel Companies Help Actually Reduce Your Home Energy Bills?

Spray Foam and Cellulose Insulation

One of the most important facets of keeping your home comfortable and energy-efficient is insulation. Heat flows from a warm space to a cool space. In the winter, heat moves from heated living areas to the outdoors and unheated areas like basements, attics, and crawl spaces. In the summer months, heat moves from the outdoors to the house interior.

Energy conservation is constantly in the news. With the uncertainty of fuel costs, homeowners are taking greater measures in making their homes' energy efficiency. Studies have shown that 65% of homes are under-insulated.

Insulation blocks the transfer of heat, helping to keep your home or business warmer in colder months and cooler in warmer months. When applied properly, insulation can help reduce the energy costs of heating and cooling your home.

As a leader in the heating and cooling industry, Blueox Energy Products & Services offers insulation as just one of the many ways to help keep you and your family comfortable in any climate.

SPRAY FOAM INSULATION

Spray foam insulation fills every little crack and crevice and expands into semi-rigid insulation and air seal. Closed-Cell spray foam insulation lasts longer. It adheres to the substrate; unlike fiberglass that can fall off or apart and it inhibit mold because it does not absorb any water.

Spray insulation is environmentally friendly insulation and helps you reduce your carbon footprint while decreasing your energy costs.

Advantages of Spray Foam:

  • Stops air and moisture infiltration
  • Makes your home more comfortable
  • Saves on Energy Costs
  • Adds strength to the building structure
  • It is permanent and will not sag
  • Keeps dust and pollen out.
  • Smaller HVAC units (BTUs’s) can be installed due to better insulation levels
  • Consistent efficiency every day

CELLULOSE INSULATION

The largest area of heat loss in a home is through the ceiling. Protect your investment with Cellulose Insulation applied by Bluefox. With Cellulose insulation, there is no cutting or fitting. There is relatively no mess as only a hose is used to apply the cellulose insulation and; it can be effectively applied over existing insulation.

Cellulose insulation is a great way to improve the carbon footprint of your home. Made from recycled paper, cellulose insulation is treated for fire and fungal resistance; making it not only environmentally friendly but safe to use.

Blown into your attic, ceiling, or walls, cellulose insulation can be used in retrofit applications where an insulation update is needed.

Advantages of Cellulose Insulation:

  • Stops air infiltration
  • Fills all gaps and voids
  • Makes your home more comfortable
  • Saves on Energy Costs
  • Smaller HVAC units (BTUs’s) can be installed due to better insulation levels
  • Great sound control material
  • Consistent efficiency every day
  • Manufactured without fiberglass, asbestos, or formaldehyde

Insulation is one part of improving the shell of your home within the Home Performance with Energy Star Program.
