Insulation

Attic and basement insulation is the underrated champion of home energy efficiency. Many years ago, when the vast majority of homes were built in the Lower Mainland, gas and electricity costs were substantially lower. Many homeowners recall that the solution to a cold home was to simply turn the heat up. Unfortunately, the cost of "turning the heat up" has become a major expense for many homeowners. In most cases, the solution is simple - upgrade your home's basement and attic insulation. Insulation installation remains one of the best investments a homeowner can make and has shown to save as much as 50% on energy bills.

And beyond energy savings, properly installed attic and basement insulation will help keep your home more comfortable in both the summer and the winter. This is because insulation resists the flow of heat. So in the winter, heat stays in. And in the summer, heat stays out.

Ecowest's representatives are ready to assess the insulation in your home by doing the dirty work that you don't want to do. We will look in your attic, basement and crawlspaces for you and determine where your home is lacking insulation, and what style of insulation is the best option. Insulation options include spray foam insulation, rigid board insulation, loose fill insulation, and fiberglass insulation. Finally, we will provide you with a report on our findings and an estimate of the cost and timeline required to upgrade your home.
