Foundation Insulation Fundamentals
Proper insulation of your foundation is key to maintaining a durable, energy-efficient home. It keeps below-grade rooms comfortable, prevents moisture problems, and minimizes the risks of insect infestation and radon infiltration. Evaluating your Connecticut home’s foundation involves considering the local climate, soil conditions, and moisture levels. It’s essential to identify any existing issues, such as drafts or water intrusion, before selecting an insulation solution.
Advantages of Proper Foundation Insulation
Structural Protection: Insulation helps protect the foundation from temperature extremes that can lead to cracking and settling, extending the lifespan of your home’s structural base.
Energy Conservation and Comfort: A well-insulated foundation contributes to reduced heating costs and maintains consistent temperatures in basement or below-grade rooms, enhancing overall comfort.
