"Abraham was very prompt visiting my home to bid on my insulation project after I called him. Once I accepted his proposal, the crew was able to begin work very quickly. The three workers were very friendly upon arriving. They were hard workers both days that they were completing the project. They were very conscientious by placing covering on my floors & cleaning up after the job was finished. I would definitely recommend Insulate Iowa LLC for your project."
"The bid was to increase my insulation factor to R38,check that ventilation screems in roof soffits were open, and to cover any open holes before the insulation was blown in. The work was performed in a neat, timely, efficient manner for the amount bid."

"David was extremely knowledgeable about his insulation project! He insulated the two outer walls of our garage, and the three car ceiling! The job was done quickly, cleaned up completely, in a morning! I would recommend this company to everyone! They did fabulous work!"
"Prevailing came in to insulate my basement and attic. The workers were professional and worked the entire time they were here (which seems like a low standard, but I've had situations where 4 people come to work and 2 stand around talking for most of it from other companies). More importantly, they explained what they were doing as they did it, and cleaned up after themselves before they left! Scheduling the service was quick and easy since they were able to use our Alliant Energy quote to avoid a second home assessment, and they came in under budget. Very satisfied - plan to have them back to blow insulation in the exterior walls before winter."
"They showed up when they said they would. The crew was very friendly and did and excellent job. Cleaned up after them selves, with no mess left behind. If I was to build a new home I would definitely hire them again."
"Abraham and his team were a fantastic help. Their service was life changing for our family. We live in a 120 year old home that had almost no insulation in the walls. Our HVAC could never keep up on cold, windy days. The last 3 winters there were times we had to go stay elsewhere as the home was too cold. Fast forward to this winter, after they completed the work we saw an immediate return. Bills went down and the home is comfortable. Heck there were times our HVAC stopped since it was so warm! They were very professional and worked around our hectic schedule. I would fully recommend them to anyone in need of insulation services."

If you’re using faced insulation with paper, face the paper toward the inside of the room during the installation process.
A good way to remember this is that the paper should face the “warm side” as it’s the vapor barrier, meaning it should face toward where the heat will be coming from.
Yes, insulating hot water pipes helps your system run more efficiently. This is especially true in basements in colder climates, where cold air likes to settle in. There are a few ways to insulate water pipes (foam is common) to keep hot water hot, reducing the need for your water heater to constantly heat the water in the tank or your circulator to kick on more than necessary.
The ideal temperature for your garage in the winter is between 40 and 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Maintaining a minimum temperature of at least 40 to 50 degrees is crucial to prevent pipes, liquids, and other items from freezing. Low temperatures can also drain your car battery, so keeping the garage stable is vital for your vehicle. While the lower end of the range protects your belongings, the higher end is based on your personal preference for a comfortable space. If you struggle to keep the temperature from dropping below 40 degrees, consider installing a garage heater.
Spray foam insulation can last between 80 and 100 years, depending on the type. Closed-cell spray foam is more durable, while open-cell foam is more susceptible to moisture damage and deterioration. It's important to consult a professional installer to understand which type of foam will be used and its specific longevity. Additionally, be aware that some spray foams can damage plastic piping, so if you have PVC or CPVC pipes, discuss this with your installer.
Fiberglass is considered a favorite garage insulation choice due to its combination of affordability, ease of installation, and overall effectiveness. Fiberglass provides good thermal resistance, helping regulate garage temperatures and minimize heat transfer. Additionally, fiberglass is moisture-resistant, reducing the risk of mold or mildew formation.
