Why Lapolla Recommends Spray Foam

What Energy Challenges Do Orlando Residents Face?

WHERE DOES MY HOME LOSE ENERGY?

Superior energy efficiency mostly depends on creating a better air seal. Wall insulation is a significant issue in home energy savings, but there are other factors that will lower home energy efficiency.

Doors and Windows

Moisture Control

Water and moisture in the building envelope is the single, greatest threat to building durability in residential construction. In addition to causing building-durability issues, moisture can create ideal conditions for mold growth, which can dramatically impact occupant health.

Ceilings, Outer Walls Floors and Crawlspaces

Air Leakage

Unsealed, responsible for about a third of the air leakage in a home.

As much as 40% of energy loss is due to air infiltration. Therefore, the most effective way to improve energy efficiency and comfort in your home is to seal it with foam.

Home Energy Assessment

A home energy assessment helps owners determine where their house is losing energy and money – and how such problems can be corrected to make the home more energy efficient. The assessment will include checking for air leaks and inspecting your insulation, furnace and duct work. Inspections also include performing a blower door test and using an infrared camera.

For new homes, our insulators can provide a swift response at all phases of construction, whether you’re at the conceptual phase or if construction is already underway.
