Our Attic Insulation System is the “Perfect” Solution for Indianapolis, IN, Homeowners’ Energy Problems
Dealing with high monthly energy bills? Getting tired of making frequent trips to the thermostat just to stay comfortable at home? The problem may be right above your head, in one of the last places most people would think about: the attic. And the best solution is right here with CHS HomePro, the attic insulation experts making Indianapolis, Indiana, area homes more energy efficient. We call it “The Perfect Attic System,” as it’s a multi-step process that revamps your entire attic insulation system and thermostat for maximum performance.
Here’s the breakdown of how “The Perfect Attic System” greenovation works:
Free Energy Analysis
Of course, we have to know exactly what we’re dealing with before we can install a single fiber of attic insulation in your home. CHS HomePro’s Home Energy Experts provide objective and credible inspection and analysis to find ways to improve energy usage habits and the conditions that affect your comfort, health, and safety. This includes identifying products you can use to do some of the energy conservation work for you.
One such product we recommend is eShield™ multilayer foil insulation. This home insulation makes a perfect companion to other energy-saving products such as refrigerators, windows, doors, siding, and more. By tackling all sources of power usage and loss, you can significantly reduce consumption—and your carbon footprint.
Bring Insulation Up to Code
Many homes that were built in the past have attic insulation systems that have never been updated since they were constructed. If you live in one of these older properties, our team can modernize your insulation system so that it can be brought up to date with current state and national standards.
Ours is a unique approach that incorporates our blown-in insulation, as well as our air sealing services and multi-layer thermal reflective radiant barrier insulation. In most homes, the attic is one of the main areas where heat enters and exits the home, making it difficult to keep the temperature of your home regulated. However, once our comprehensive insulation system is in place, it will immediately cut down on all three forms of heat transfer that can affect a home—conductive, convective, and radiant—and eventually save you money on your monthly energy bills.
Energy-Efficient Blown-In Insulation for Your Attic
Blown-in insulation is an integral component of the comprehensive attic insulation system that eShield™ proudly offers. Our fiberglass insulation is 100% recycled and is the only attic insulation in the world that is guaranteed to remain at its original R-value level for as long as you own your home. In fact, if your insulation fails to live up to our high standards of energy efficiency, our insulation team will refill your attic to the appropriate level for free.
Stop Radiant Heat Gain & Loss
Conductive heat flow is the kind of heat transfer that happens between objects that touch each other. For instance, the heat from the roof of your home can transfer to the adjoining walls. On the other hand, convective heat flow is the type of heat transfer that occurs through the movement of fluids. For example, the warm air that infiltrates your home can circulate indoors. These types of heat transfer mechanisms can be effectively dealt with by installing blown-in insulation and air sealing your home.
A third type of heat transfer called thermal radiation, however, does not require a medium to carry the heat. A good example of how it works is when the sun heats your home’s roof and the roof radiates the heat into your attic. This type of heat transfer can be reduced with reflective insulation products like radiant barriers.
Able to stop more than 97% of radiant heat, eShield™ multilayer reflective foil insulation is an exceptionally efficient and innovative solution to thermal insulation needs. By coupling eShield™ with your home’s existing insulation, you can create a complete solution to all types of heat transfer. This foil insulation works in tandem with insulation in virtually every environment of your home, from the attic and the basement to everywhere in between.
Energy Usage Modification With the Nest
We didn’t think thermostats mattered, either, until we found out they control half of your home’s energy. That’s more than appliances, lighting, TVs, computers, and stereos combined. The Nest Leaf thermostat was designed to be simple and provide feedback on your energy-saving habits. It’s there to guide you toward efficient temperatures and reward you when you get there.
A Smart Thermostat
Programming thermostats can be complicated and are usually irritating, but an un-programmed thermostat can account for up to 20% of your monthly heating and cooling costs. So, the Nest makes it easy for you by simply programming itself. The Nest Thermostat learns what temperatures you like and builds a personalized schedule. Work with it for a few days and, within a week, it’ll start setting your desired temperatures on its own.
Save While You’re Away
With Auto-Away™, the Nest Thermostat automatically turns to an energy-efficient Away temperature when you’re gone. You can also use the Nest app to connect to your thermostat from a phone. Getting in early? Change the temperature miles from home. Auto-Away works in 90% of homes, even if your Nest is in a spot you don’t pass on your way out the door.
