Insulation questions, answered by experts

One of the clearest signs that your insulation isn’t working as well as it should be is a noticeable difference in temperature throughout your home. One room might feel icy while another is hot as Arizona—this indicates that some parts of your home are either retaining or losing heat more than others. Additionally, a sudden increase in your energy bills, evidence of pests or rodents, or evident water damage are other signals that warrant a thorough inspection of your insulation and potential replacement.

Installing sheets of plywood over attic insulation is a popular choice, especially in storage spaces. That said, insulation works by trapping hot air—so it needs extra space to expand and be effective, or you might reduce the energy efficiency of your home. 

It’s important that you never compress the insulation by installing flooring directly on top of it. In many houses, you’ll need to install a subfloor before putting plywood over insulation in your attic.

Cellular shades, especially double- or triple-cell varieties, are the most insulating window treatments. Their honeycomb structure traps air in layered pockets, creating a thermal barrier that reduces heat loss in the winter and blocks heat gain in the summer. For even more insulation, look for side-tracked cellular shades that seal the edges to minimize air leaks.

As long as a licensed professional installs your gas lines, you don’t have to do anything extra to prepare for cold weather. If there are pipes that require a wrap, your installer should have done it for you already. If you want to be absolutely sure your gas system is good to go for winter, the best option is to schedule a gas line inspection.

While the answer may depend on who you ask, most contractors would agree that spray foam insulation is a strong candidate for this job as it is effective at repelling moisture and is resistant to biological growth.
