Ontario Home Insulation

Adding home insulation in Ontario is more than necessary but quality insulation, just like most things, may come at a cost. Through experience we can say that most homeowners tend to choose quality products when investing in their buildings.

Between various home insulation choices, you will find cheaper products than Spray Foam or Blown In Insulation but there are a few notable differences, as you can see below.

Do you have problems with the interior temperature, mould, mildew and other factors that may affect your health or the health of others living in the building? You do need home insulation but what if you live in an insulated building, and you are still dealing with such problems? Then your home insulation isn’t good enough, it is old or it was not installed properly.

Well, changing insulation every 7 years, does not seem fair. That is why we recommend choosing quality products.

We at Ecostar, recommend insulating the house with spray foam insulation and if you can’t afford it, invest for a longer period. Yes, you can use the best material for home insulation, and without spending too much money! Start with the area that mostly needs to be insulated.

Up to 35% of heat loss escapes through the walls because of poor home insulation. External wall home insulation significantly reduces this heat loss, leading to a reduction in annual fuel bills by as much as 25%.

External Wall Insulation (EWI) systems also protect the building structure, prevent deterioration, and overcome thermal bridging and condensation problems. In a newbuild instance, EWI systems are the most cost-effective way of achieving the current & future thermal performance requirements for the building regulations, achieving an internal environment with low-temperature fluctuations and low heating requirements.

• Increases the thermal quality of the building
• Overcomes moisture/condensation issues
• Protects the existing building envelope
• Reduces heating bills by 25%
• Improves the building's appearance

The garage is an important space, but it is also the coldest environment in the house because of many factors, such as the size of the garage door, and the lack of insulation. As the cold air moves throughout the garage, it will make the ceiling colder which will result in a cold above-garage room floor.

You can insulate it and turn it to a livable space. If your budget is too tight to do that, then you must consider insulating the garage ceiling instead of paying for the whole home insulation.

If your garage doesn’t have actual insulation added to the ceiling you may have noticed that the above room of the garage is cold. That happens because the ceiling of your garage is also the floor of the room above and air leakage occurs. Having a cold room may be acceptable during summer but it can get uncomfortable during winter. It is the main cause of high heating bills, and even at its capacity, the heating won’t be enough in the coldest months. Integral garages, don’t just bring in cold air but also allow for noise to travel. Insulating the ceiling will keep the temperature of the room above constant and keeps the electricity bills lower.
