Insulation and Air Sealing

Insulation and air sealing are essential to maintaining a comfortable, consistent temperature in your home year round. The Arizona Energy Management Council can provide you with a licensed, bonded, and insured contractor to install your insulation and air sealing in your home. Insulation and air sealing have many benefits for your home, provided it is installed properly:

• Insulation and air sealing can increase the comfort of your home by reducing heat gain in the summer and lowering heat loss in the winter.
• Insulation and air sealing will keep your home structure intact by reducing moisture in the home that can damage the structure of your home.
• Insulation can reduce the energy cost in your home from the air conditioner working overtime to cool your home after heat gain in the summer.
• Insulation and air sealing can reduce your energy costs in the winter from the heater working overtime to heat your home after heat loss.
