At Insulwise, we focus on improving the energy efficiency & comfort of our customers homes by using a free-of-cost home energy evaluation to first determine the root of the problems you're experiencing in your home.

We then apply current-best-practice measures to air seal and re-insulate your home to achieve the results you desire!

"Andy and Brady, I want to thank Brian, Justin and Skyler for the hard work they did insulating the cape cod attic, rafters, rim joist, garage ceiling, and adding the roof vents. During the time in the attic they discovered the return air was wide open to the attic and boxed it on the attic side so the return air now extracts from the room air side. It was a lot of work to complete in a short time and everyone worked hard to complete it. Thankyou Insulwise for having solutions for this type of house to improve the thermal envelope. I look forward to a more comfortable house without the AC or furnace operating every 5 minutes. John"

Insulation questions, answered by experts

Cellulose insulation is usually made from recycled paper products, such as old newspapers, but cellulose might also contain recycled denim. While most homeowners traditionally buy cellulose insulation to use for installation, it is possible to make your own at home with old newspapers, cardboard, a paper shredder, and boric acid (important for fireproofing your cellulose insulation materials).

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.

Because of the moisture concern, open-cell foam requires a vapor barrier. The barrier protects against high humidity and moisture exposure in rooms such as basements, bathrooms, or exterior walls. It wouldn't be necessary in dry interior spaces.

Regular inspections for moisture damage, pest infestations, and proper R-value performance help maintain efficiency.

The average U.S. homeowner pays $1,850 to insulate their home. However, the cost of insulation depends on the type, the size of your home, and who does the installation work. 

The cost of foam board insulation depends on whether it's made from expanded polystyrene (EPS) or extruded polystyrene (XPS). EPS has the lower price point, usually costing between $0.25 and $0.50 per board foot, while XPS costs between $0.40 and $0.50 per board foot.
