Why Proper Insulation Is Important in the Summer

LITTLETON, Mass. - June 10, 2013 - PRLog -- Dolphin Insulation, a Boston Insulation contractor (http://www.dolphin-insulation.com/) has been servicing homeowners in eastern Massachusetts for many years including the summer months.  

Proper insulation is just as effective in the summer as it is in the winter. Insulation is about separating the air outside from the air inside, and in the summer, this means keeping the house safe from the summer heat. To help homeowners, the experts at Dolphin Insulation have released a video explaining the value of proper insulation. http://youtu.be/D7yf0mVJisQ



A Roof Collects Heat: The roof gathers and collects a lot of heat from the sun, which ends up baking the attic, which can get as hot as 140 degrees. Without proper insulation, that heat can seep into the rest of the house.

Insulation Keeps Heat Out: Proper air sealing and insulation can keep the heat from the attic and outdoors from getting into the house, and keep the cold air inside.

Get an Energy Audit: Buying an extra air condition may not be enough to cool the house down—it’s very possible there are insulation needs going unnoticed. A professional can inspect a home and determine the best way to keep heat out of the home and the cold air inside.
