By air sealing off your structure, you are essentially closing every “window” left open to the cold on a winter day.

Choosing to insulate a garage is an important choice for home owners which offers many benefits. Insulating a garage increases energy efficiency, reduces noise pollution, increases comfort, raises property value and preserves the possessions inside. Overall, insulating a garage helps guard your investment while protecting the area from outside elements.

1. Increased Energy Efficiency: Insulating an attached garage prevents your home from losing heated or cooled air from the garage-adjacent rooms, which saves money and increases energy efficiency. 
2. Reduced Noise Pollution: Insulation acts as a sound barrier which prevents:
   • Noise from outside the home from being heard inside
   • Noise from inside the garage from being heard inside your home
   • Noise from inside your home from being heard in the garage
3. Increased Comfort: An insulated garage creates a climate controlled environment and offers protection from the elements. An insulated garage provides additional comfort for:
   • Getting in and out of the car
   • Recreational activities
   • Storage
   • Work
4. Protecting Possessions: Insulating a garage protects your personal belongings in the following ways:
   • Increased car battery performance
   • Elevated efficiency from engine fluids
   • Car is more likely to start in freezing weather
   • Storage climate sensitive items

Not only is insulation used for improving comfort and energy efficiency, it is also used for sound deadening. Sound deadening is important for muffling out noises from neighbors, passing cars, barking dogs, and noises from within other rooms of the structure.

The difference between sound proofing and sound deadening is that in sound proofing, all sound is completely blocked out, while sound deadening only muffles and reduces sound waves. Sound deadening can be achieved by using certain types of insulation, while sound proofing requires additional materials to achieve the effect. Sound deadening insulation is available in these various forms: open cell spray foam, fiberglass, denim, and rockwool. Each version of insulation offers a different Sound Transmission Class.

Sound Transmission Class or STC is a measured rating of a material’s effectiveness in reducing sound between walls, ceilings, doors, floors, and windows. Understanding STC levels can help determine which type of insulation is needed for the structure.

STC Levels

• 25 STC: A regular tone of voice conversation can be heard and understood.
• 30 STC: A loud tone of voice conversation can be heard and understood.
• 35 STC: A loud tone of voice conversation can be heard but is indecipherable.
• 40 STC: A loud tone of voice conversation sounds like a whisper.
• 50 STC: Loud noises are barely heard.
• 60 STC: This level is considered as soundproofed, where noises are not heard.

Rockford Insulation Pros provides insulation removal services. Removing old insulation can be important if there are any damages due to disasters, leaks, or old deteriorated insulation.

Rockford Insulation Pros provides pole barn insulation services to new construction and retro-fits existing structures. Proper insulation keeps your livestock warm in winter and cooler in summer while preventing any condensation or moisture problems. Insulation eliminates the two most prevalent problems in pole barns: extreme temperatures and high moisture levels.

Insulating a pole barn offers many benefits to livestock, people, and items stored inside. Pole barn insulation is crucial in preventing condensation within the structure. Condensation is created when warmer air from outside the pole barn makes contact with cooler surfaces on the inside. The constant build up of moisture within a pole barn can create mold and mildew, leading to health problems for livestock and people. Proper pole barn insulation is a key component in protecting the health of the inhabitants.

Installing an air barrier along with insulation prevents drafts, deters pests and stops the transfer of heat. Adding insulation in conjunction with an air barrier blocks heat transfer from outside elements to the interior of the pole barn, creating a stable temperature year round. Blocking cracks and gaps with an air barrier prevents pollutants, pollens, allergens, pests, and dirt from entering the pole barn which promotes a healthier environment for the inhabitants. 

The sound of rain falling on a metal pole barn can be extremely loud, distracting, and uncomfortable to livestock and people. Insulation muffles noises of rain, storms, and any other outside noises from passing into the pole barn and causing disturbances. Overall, installing insulation in a pole barn increases comfort and protects the health of the inhabitants, while preventing moisture and the transfer of heat in or out of the building.

Creating a new living space through the use if insulation increases the value of the home as well.

Another benefit of home insulation, is noise control. Adding insulation to an attic quiets the sound of rain falling on the roof, while insulated exterior walls block outside noises such as cars or trains passing by, sirens going off, or dogs barking. Interior insulated walls allow privacy from room to room while blocking out loud noises such as televisions, musical instruments, babies crying or sounds from appliances such as washers and dryers.

Crawl spaces can be used for many purposes such as access to cooling and heating systems, plumbing, electrical, and storage. The vast majority of crawl spaces are under insulated, which causes energy loss and higher costs for the homeowner. Properly insulating your crawlspace protects your home, utilities, cuts down energy usage, increases property value, and prevents moisture condensation.

Insulating a crawl space is essential in establishing a steady temperature throughout the home, increasing energy efficiency and reducing energy payments. An uninsulated crawl space loses a significant amount of heat through the floor during winter and also lets in hot air during the summer. After insulating the crawl space, the floors directly above are going to be noticeably warmer in winter. 

A properly insulated crawl space prevents condensation, mold, mildew and pollutants which in turn creates better air quality and health. With the insulated protection from the elements, the heating and cooling systems in a house are under less strain and now have a longer lifespan. An insulated crawl space is crucial for preventing pipes from freezing in cold weather. Additionally, a properly sealed and insulated crawl space deters pests from entering the home.
