Wall insulation is any form of insulating material that is attached or placed within your walls. Professional wall insulation services harbour enormous benefits for homeowners and business owners alike. Wall insulation can make your home more comfortable, provide energy saving benefits, and environmentally friendly while saving you money.
Un-insulated homes and businesses are often colder and require much more energy to heat the property.

INTERNAL WALL INSULATION
There are two separate opportunities to insulate the interior of your walls. During renovations or property construction, insulation batts can be installed between frame boards and around all appliances, like switch boxes and windows. Wall insulation can also be done as a property improvement project by pumping blown-in insulation or spray foam insulation into the wall cavities. The size of the wall cavity, as well as the location of the wall on your property, can dictate what style of insulation will be best. Spray foam insulation is more powerful and is ideal for walls that frame your property, though blown-in insulation can be less costly and provides sufficient R-value for interior walls.
WALL INSULATION R-VALUE
The R-value represents the relative density and levels heat flow resistance within each inch of the respective insulation material. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation holds heat in. Depending on the area in the home or business, and the location of the property, you may not require extremely high R-value materials to properly insulate the building. Interior walls can require R-values of R-14, while exterior facing walls will likely need an R-value of R-28 or higher. Loose-fill insulation, insulation batts and foam insulation forms all have different and R-values that also vary, depending on the base material in the type of insulation.
