Installing insulation during a remodel is not as easy as installing it during new construction. But it can be done, and the benefits are worth the effort. Every project is unique, and you can contact us at Omaha Spray Foam to get a more personalized plan based on your particular situation. Regardless, there is a general approach you can follow when you are remodeling and dealing with an insulation upgrade.

First, you must identify the issue. Is your house not up to code requirements? Has the remodeling damaged previously installed insulation? Are new sections being put in? Or is this simply an opportunity to lower your heating and cooling costs? Insulation during remodeling might be a necessity caused by the remodeling or an opportunity to use the process for further home improvement.
 
Second, you need to figure out how you’re going to do this. Our experts will help you evaluate your house’s energy system. A lot goes into making the energy system of a property. For example, the heating and cooling systems, the internal and external ventilation systems, and the water heating system. It is always best to work methodically.

We recommend starting at the lowest level of the home. In Omaha, this is usually the basement. Then work your way up, including floors, walls, ventilation shafts, and crawl spaces till you reach the roof of the attic. Which type of insulation is used depends greatly on factors such as nearby water lines, ventilation ducts, etc.
 
The reason you need to hire an established company with experienced professionals is that upgrading insulation in one zone can often affect another. Omaha Spray Foam’s professionals possess the required know-how to avoid these problems by preemptively analyzing the situation. 
 
So, they know that if you insulate your attic, but don’t lower air leakages and facilitate ventilation simultaneously, your roof will eventually begin to leak. Or at least accumulate moisture and grow fungus and mold. This is just one example of why choosing the right insulation company is so important.
