Insulation provides several benefits including energy efficiency, reduced heating and cooling costs, improved indoor comfort, noise reduction, and moisture control.

Common insulation materials include fiberglass, cellulose, spray foam, rigid foam board, and mineral wool. Each type has its advantages and is suitable for different applications.

While DIY insulation projects are possible for small areas, hiring a professional insulation contractor is recommended for larger projects or when dealing with complex installations to ensure proper insulation levels and energy efficiency.

The amount of money insulation can save you on energy bills depends on various factors such as the type of insulation, climate, energy prices, and the size and condition of your home. However, homeowners typically see significant savings ranging from 10% to 50% on their heating and cooling costs after insulating their homes properly.

Yes, many governments offer incentives, rebates, or tax credits for homeowners who invest in energy-efficient upgrades like insulation. Check with your local government or energy authority to see what incentives are available in your area.
