"Brad and his team did a superb job installing spray foam insulation in our home in southern NH. Brad has a great understanding of how buildings work. The foam his team installed made our home incredibly and immediately warmer for a very fair price. He was upfront and very well reasoned about what would and would NOT work for our ice dams and cathedral ceilings.. His company scheduled us and completed the job faster than all the other contractors offered to do. He also offered a better price out of four bids. I feel that we really were lucky to have chosen Brad to do the work. We received four bids, some were substantially more expensive. And yet, Brad offered the only solution that made sense to us and that actually WORKED. The install went very fast. 24 hours post installation, we had zero smell. Our home was left as clean as when they started the work. I am extremely impressed."
"The work they performed was beyond excellent! They were clean and respectful and worked continuously till the job was done. Can't wait to see what we will be saving on heat. Thanks so much Paul & crew!"
"Kyle was fantastic to work with. Very professional and good attention to detail. I appreciated his responsiveness and his flexibility to working with our schedule."
"Smart solutions was very professional and extremely helpful. Work was done recently. I have also hired them to do flooring and a bath remodeling. I would recommend them to anyone."
"Diego and his crew are amazing! Punctual, fair price and just a great job all around. I even had other contractors come through who commented on what a great job they did. At one point we were on a very tight timeline and needed the remaining plaster installed before the floors went in. Diego’s crew worked late on a Saturday to make sure it was done. Simply could not have stayed on schedule without him."
"I was very pleased with the work he did, he has a nice way of explaining things , I sure I will hire him again for other projects when needed he is a very pleasant person to deal with. Tank you Scott for being such a nice guy ."

"Roland did an excellent job. He explained the things I needed and those that I didn't. He was right on time and finished the job in the time he stated. He was very professional and knew what he was doing. If you are looking for a straight shooter without any of the sales frills (and the larger cost) then Sav-On Insulation should be your choice."
Yes, you should insulate your copper pipes to help regulate their temperature. Well-insulated copper pipes will be protected from freezing and can conserve energy by keeping hot water warm for longer. Foam rubber insulation tubes are the best pipe insulation to prevent freezing since they fit tightly around the pipes while still maintaining some flexibility.
No, 55 degrees Fahrenheit is not too cold for a house, as it’s a temperature that will keep your pipes and appliances from freezing. Well-insulated homes can even go to 50 degrees, but check with an HVAC pro before opting for such a low temperature. Stick to 55 degrees to be on the safe side.
Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, but the actual temperature that can cause frozen pipes can vary. Generally, it takes 12 hours for pipes to freeze at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
Uninsulated pipes can freeze if it’s 20 degrees Fahrenheit or colder for over three hours. If your pipes are insulated, it can take six hours or longer for pipes to freeze. Note that some pipe types freeze more often than PEX pipes. Copper pipes freeze more often because the copper conducts energy and loses heat quickly.
When temperatures are too cold, it can keep ice from melting, and products like ice melt and rock salt are ineffective. Water turns to ice in temperatures below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Ice melts on its own when temperatures reach above 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
Ice melt loses effectiveness in temperatures below -25 degrees Fahrenheit, and rock salt works in temperatures 5 degrees Fahrenheit and warmer.
The primary purpose of insulation is to maintain comfortable temperatures in a home, whether that’s cool air when it’s hot out, or warm air in winter, but that’s not all it can do. All options will also minimize heating and cooling needs, lowering both your carbon footprint and energy bills in turn. And some options, like rigid foam boards, even offer soundproofing benefits, too.
