What material is the best thermal insulator?
Now, moving back into the thermal insulation options for you and your home, we will go over the pros and cons of the top three kinds of thermal insulators that are used in homes all across America. The first kind of thermal insulation that contractors like to use is polyurethane foaming insulation, or more simply foaming insulation. This kind of thermal insulation works so perfectly because once it dries, it becomes completely solid and doesn’t let any air or water to pass through the home. One reason why all homes across america don’t use this kind of thermal insulation in the home is because of how expensive it can be in your home. Price of course is always a part of the equation in your home, especially with how expensive it is to have your home built up from the ground up. Although this kind of material is a little more expensive, it is also extremely covering and an amazing product to put through your homes walls.
Another very commonly used kind of thermal insulation that you can have installed in your home is mineral wool. This kind of wool-like material is thick and flame retardant while keeping the insulation of your home into place so that you can be comfortable in your home. Unlike with the polyurethane foam insulation, this mineral wool insulation is an environmental boost in your home while also keeping your home flame safe. This sort of insulation is a lot less expensive than the foaming insulation that you can have in your home, but also doesn’t have the same amount of coverage that you would have in your home. Mineral wool, like we said, is still one of the more environmentally safe kinds of insulation that you could have installed in your home though.
The last kind of insulation that you could have installed in your home is one of the most recognizable kinds of thermal insulation that you can have in your home. This thermal insulation is the fiberglass batting thermal insulation that you have probably seen in homes all around you. This kind of insulation has that cotton candy look, but it actually really dangerous to have inhaled into your lungs as it can literally shred your lungs to pieces! Fiberglass insulation is a batting kind of insulation that is cost effective, while still doing the best job that it can for you and your home. This kind of insulation is important to have in your home and can be effective in your home for a lot of years. Fiberglass batting thermal insulation is flame retardant, and environmentally friendly, so if you are concerned about having a completely green house, this is the kind of insulation for you! Although this kind of insulation can seem like the end all be all of insulation types, it is known to settle over time and become less effective. If you are looking for an insulation that won’t need any extra additives over the years, it might be a good idea to look into a different kind of insulation for you and your home.
