3 Projects to Improve Your Home's Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is a major concern for most homeowners, particularly during summer and winter. Fortunately, there are home improvement projects that can improve your home’s energy efficiency and comfort. Fortenberry Roofing Co., one of the top siding companies in our area, discusses these home upgrades:
Install an Energy-Efficient Roof A new roof can improve your home’s energy efficiency by keeping your attic cool. For example, there are asphalt shingles on the market that have reflective granules. These granules minimize the amount of heat that gets into your attic by reflecting solar heat away from your home. This is useful during summer because a cooler attic means less work for your HVAC system. This can cause your HVAC to consume less energy, so you can save money.
Improve Your Attic Insulation
Consider upgrading your attic insulation when you undertake your roof replacement project. Improving your home’s attic insulation is one of the best and most affordable ways to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Attic insulation can help regulate your indoor temperature by preventing heat from entering and escaping through your attic. This also has the added benefit of making your roof more durable by preventing ice dams during winter. Replace Your Siding
Your siding contributes a lot to your home’s energy efficiency. This is because the siding protects the continuous insulation around the sides of your home from weather damage. In addition, certain siding products also have insulation built-in for even more energy efficiency. Insulated siding is more rigid and tougher than ordinary siding thanks to its added bulk. They can also provide some noise reduction.
