"I highly recommend New England Performance Insulation!!! Having no knowledge of or experience with foam insulation or the process, I really lucked out w NEPI! Vernon explained the process in a way that was easy to understand, which made me feel very confident in hiring them and in the choices we made with specifics to the job. The crew was amazing - on time, professional, so nice, hard working, and clean! Vernon went above and beyond to make sure everything was to my satisfaction and even came back to do some additional touch ups to make sure the job was 110% complete and to my satisfaction. And a huge shout out to Carol in the office; she is so sweet, helpful and professional. A great asset to the NEPI team! Not only do I highly recommend foam insulation for your home, but I highly, highly recommend hiring NEPI to do the job! Vernon is a super nice guy and he will make sure you are a super happy customer!!!"

"Very professional company. From the initial contact, inspection and quote by Brian, to prompt scheduling follow-up by Jessen and arrival of the team, everything went seamlessly. Would definitely recommend this company. Jabari and Anthony did a great job insulating the rim joists, adding wall and pipe insulation under the sink on an outside wall and caulking a leaky window - no more breezes. Definitely feel a difference in the house now. The added attic hatch cover makes the heat stay below, where it belongs. Really appreciated the use of PPE when they were working with mineral wool. Very satisfied customer here."

Insulation questions, answered by experts

The amount and type of insulation your home needs depends on your location, climate, and the specific installation area (attic, walls, or floors). Your local building code will typically determine the minimum required R-value. For specific recommendations, Energy Star suggests the following R-values: homes in the Southern U.S. should have R30 to R60 in attics and R13 to R25 in floors and walls; homes in moderate climates need R38 to R60 in attics and R25 to R30 in floors and walls; and homes in northern states require R49 to R60 in attics and R25 to R30 in floors and walls.

Natural fiber batts and spray foam insulation both work great for soundproofing. Newer materials, such as hemp batts, are more expensive but more effective for insulation and sound blocking. They are also more sustainable. There is also a professional system called Blow-In Blanket Insulation (BIBS) that is soundproof and moisture-resistant. However, BIBS must be installed professionally and can be a costly investment.

Yes, PEX pipes should be insulated in certain situations. While insulation is not always necessary for pipes running through insulated interior or external walls, it is recommended for any pipes located in uninsulated rooms, unheated areas, or outside, especially in regions with cold winters. The primary reason is to prevent freezing. Although PEX is more resistant to cracking from freezing than other materials, repeated freezing and thawing can weaken the pipes over time, increasing the risk of a burst.

There are many ways to keep your house cool without central air. In fact, ductless mini-split AC systems are a solid alternative to central AC for situations when you can’t install ducts in your home. If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly cooling solution, consider using window AC units or portable air conditioners.

Whether you should remove old insulation before blowing in new insulation depends on your particular situation. Fiberglass insulation attracts insects and mold over time, so if it has been decades since your last insulation upgrade, consider removing the old materials before placing the new ones. However, most types resist mold, insects, and mildew, so once you get the go-ahead from your contractor that your space is free from all three, feel free to install the new insulation directly on top of the pre-existing materials.
