Would you do it if it was free?

Would you do it if it was free?

Would you insulate your home if we told you it was free? Of course, you would!

Heating and cooling your home accounts for more than 49% of your energy bills. Properly insulating and air sealing your home, including your HVAC ductwork, is one of the MOST beneficial energy-saving projects you can do. With the added bonus of making you more comfortable in your home year-round.

To help determine what guidelines for building and insulation in different areas of the country, The Department of Energy divides the country into climate zones. The Richmond, Williamsburg, Newport News, and Gloucester areas of Virginia are identified as Climate Zone 4. In zone 4, Energy Star recommends attic be insulated with an R49 to R60 of insulation. R-value is the insulation material’s resistance to heat; how well does it keep heat from traveling through it. The higher a materials’ R-value, the better it resists heat.

Unfortunately, in many homes, especially older homes, air sealing, and insulation guidelines were different and didn’t have the energy-saving focus that we have today. This has left millions of homeowners and families with high energy bills and uneven temperatures from room to room. 

Consider this; you can reduce your heating and cooling bills so much that you start saving money off being comfortable. We spend money on all sorts of things that make us comfortable in our home. In fact, comfort is a huge player in a lot of buying decisions we make; clothes, cars, furniture, beds, pillows, even heating and cooling our homes. It’s all about comfort.

Improving your attic’s insulation and air sealing qualities improves the overall performance of your home, reducing your energy bills & wear and tear on your heating and cooling system, and making your home more comfortable. The Drying Company’s mission is to help make homes more comfortable, energy-efficient, durable, and healthy. Therefore, The Drying Co. is excited to offer, through Dr. Energy Saver and Attic Systems, the Smart Money Guarantee to our customers.
