Reduce Energy Bill by up to 60% Overnight
Literally 90% of heat loss is due to warmer air moving to colder air. If your house or building is not sealed properly, heated air moves out and is replaced by freezing cold, winter air. The opposite is true for summer heat. The cool air is not retained in the space and is instead moving freely by exchanging air.
Common Problem: Escaping Air
Literally 90% of heat loss is due to warmer air moving to colder air. As warm air rises and leaves the home through the attic, cold air is drawn in from the outside through walls, doors, windows, vents, and a lot through the sill plate or rim joist area of a house. This effect on the house is known as the stack effect, because of the way a chimney stack draws air in from the bottom as warm air leaves through the top.

Insul-Tech Solution: Air Sealing
Air Sealing is the key! By using spray foam insulation in your home, you are adding the power of air sealing to the equation. Stopping air leaks in the home by using spray foam insulation is a wise choice because it also acts as an insulation barrier and a moisture barrier. We have made energy usage improvements in the following areas, Albany, Troy, Loudonville, East Greenbush, Saratoga, Catskill, Durham, Greenville, Schoharie, and many more areas throughout New York. If you live in the Northeast or Western Mass we can help you!
