Conserve energy through attic insulation



Attic insulation is otherwise called as home insulation which means covering your house with products like foam, fiberglass, Teflon and required adhesive to experience stable and bearable climate indoor. The most vital role of insulation is reduce in energy consumption and thus reduces the electrical bill. The type of attic insulation can be selected considering the climatic condition, plan of the house, location of the house.
Why to conserve energy?
            Conservation of energy will reduce the risk of many natural disasters. Most of us consume non-renewable energy in our daily life like coal, petroleum, oils etc… by some means this should be controlled because once depleted it cannot regained. This will change the world upside down. Conserving the energy helps to save money on electric bills. So prefer to use renewable energy despite of high installation cost.
How to plan?
            Initially perform the energy audit which means inspecting the house thoroughly on source of energy loss, amount of energy getting and going out of the house, analysis of types of energy used and type of insulation opted for the house and finally the cost estimation of the plan.
Why insulate house?
            In the period of summer and winter, people are supposed to experience the change in climate and some are prone to seasonal disease due to less immune capacity, so people use additional home appliance to keep the temperature moderate. This will increase the consumption of energy thus increasing the energy bills.  In summer more cold energy will get let out in case of winter the hot energy. To avoid this, experts came with term called “insulation”.


Insulation process:
·        Initially decide for the type of insulation and plan for the process through efficient energy audit.
·        The thickness of insulation depends on the R-value. To be simple, R-value is the ratio of difference between the temperature and amount of the heat transfer occurred in the specific place.
·        Before starting the process of insulation the house should be prepared to have smooth insulation process.
·        Do some alteration in house like small scaffolding for easy work and prepare temporary lighting too. Check for the leakage area in your house and close it before start up.
·        Inspect the area to check and repair. Because damaged area may lead to inlet of energy from outside and make all the work to vein.
·        Replace all the older lights and pipe lines with new one suitable for the type of insulation performed.
·        After installing attic insulation in your house check for the ventilation, water leaks and air leaks.
Following the above steps will provide you with good quality insulation and it requires maintenance for every to 5 to 7 years to replace all the worn our insulated substance.
