The basement of your home could be one of the most important spaces to insulate. If you don’t have basement insulation currently or you aren’t sure your basement is insulated properly, there are a few reasons you may want to invest in an upgrade to this space.
To start, adding basement insulation when you have none may be an important way to regulate the temperature of your home from the ground up. If you notice that the upper living areas of your home are affected by the basement temperature throughout the year, adding insulation could be a critical step in added comfort.
Another reason to invest in basement insulation is if the current insulative materials aren’t doing their job. Basements can be cool and damp, so your existing insulation may have mold or water damage. Furthermore, old insulation can lose effectiveness and should be replaced to ensure that you get the best results for your home.
There are some easy times to install basement insulation to make the entire process more effective. For example, if you are planning a basement renovation or upgrades to the basement area, adding insulation during construction is an ideal time. It may also be a good idea to schedule basement insulation installation during the change of seasons when it will be more comfortable in your other living areas while the basement is being updated.
