Wall insulation can be a vital aspect of any business or home insulation project. Focussing solely on attics and ceilings and overlooking walls in residential and commercial insulation projects can lead to lesser insulation benefits and further projects down the road. Make sure your walls are fully insulated.

Wall insulation can provide a number of benefits to your home or business. Exterior and interior walls alike can require insulation, especially in the often cold climate that Calgary offers. Utilise professional insulation services for your wall insulation renovation and new construction wall insulation projects.

Professional wall insulation services can ensure that the ideal types of insulation are utilised throughout your commercial and or residential walls.

Benefits Of Wall Insulation

All forms of insulation can make your home or business more comfortable, attractive, energy efficient and cost effective. Insulation is known to reduce energy needs, leading a more “green” household and to lower energy bills. Wall insulation can also allow your home or business to maintain a far more comfortable and consistent air temperature throughout Calgary’s seasonal and or unexpected weather changes. Having fully insulated walls also creates a higher resale value for your home or business, should you decide to sell the property.

Wall That Can Be Insulated

It is a common misconception that all walls are built from the same materials. Though there are a variety of wall types and each allows for varying insulation projects. These walls are:

• Solid Walls – Slid walls are built from stone, concrete and wooden planks. These walls have no interior cavity but can be effectively insulated on their exterior.
• Concrete Block Walls – These walls are built with interior cavities that promote airflow. Insulating the cavity as well as sealing all air leakage routes from the blocks can both be accomplished.
• Frame Walls – Frame walls have a cavity that varies in size, based on the wall construction techniques that are utilised. These walls can be insulated within this cavity, as well as on the exterior of the walls.

Some aspects of walls cannot be insulated, as they provide moisture draining outlets or areas for various utility lines. It is important to make sure that your wall insulation efforts are projects by a professional to ensure only the proper portions are insulated.

Types of Wall Insulation

There are four main types of insulation that can be used for effective walls insulation projects.

• Batt and Blanket – These insulation pads can be installed the exterior of the solid walls and frame walls.
• Blown-In Insulation – Small holes can be drilled into solid and concrete block walls, where a hose is then run into to pump loose-fill blown in insulation up to the desired density.
• Spray Foam Insulation – Spray foam insulation can provide air tight seal. This makes this insulation ideal for sealing leakage points in concrete block walls.
• Foam Board Insulation – Foam boards can be applied like tiles to the base of frame walls to stop unwanted airflow from the base of the walls.
