N. Las Vegas, NV -- (SBWire) -- 09/24/2010 -- Nowadays almost every home and office is incorporating insulation in order to cut down their electricity bills and to maintain an optimum temperature at home. This is done by filling the gaps or cracks in the walls, ceilings or floors with suitable insulating materials.
The common problem in every house is to detect the cracks or gaps present in the walls, ceilings or floors. Thermal imaging is one of the ideal ways of detecting the gaps and cracks, so that uninsulated areas can be identified. It helps in finding out leakage of hot air in cold regions and the areas from where cool air passes into warmer regions. The main advantage of thermal imaging is that it is a non-disruptive and quick way of finding missing insulation of structures and windows.
This process gives the measurements of surface temperature and provides a pictorial view for defining the effectiveness of insulation. This is beneficial in resolving issues with the contractor, and cutting down the cost by insulating only the areas from where air gets leaked. After detecting the areas that require insulation, you can select any of the insulation types, depending upon your specific requirements. Out of the several insulation types available, cellulose insulation is an important one, which is done through sprayed foams and mineral wool.
Cellulose insulation is gaining immense popularity these days because it is an eco-friendly way of insulation. Cellulose is made by chemically treating recycled newsprint, paperboard, cardboard and other waste paper products, which have insect-resistant and fire-resistant properties. In addition, it has R-value of 3.7 per inch which offers superior acoustical properties, thus making it an excellent air sealer.
Nowadays, other ways are also there to save energy apart from insulation, such as installation of replacement windows. In this, the new windows are fixed within the existing window frames. Replacement windows are highly beneficial as they can easily replace the draft or non-functional windows and are dependent on the strength of the original window.
Replacement windows, are widely demanded as they minimize the energy loss & noise, and are also easy to install, affordable and aesthetically appealing. You can either opt for replacement windows or can go in for a combination of cellulose insulation and new windows for assuring an energy efficient home.
