Is your home less comfortable than it used to be? Have your energy bills been creeping up for no clear reason? If so, your home’s insulation may be to blame. Over time, insulation can settle, degrade, or become less effective—causing energy loss and discomfort. In this post, we’ll explore the top 5 signs your home needs new insulation and how SRI Energy can help you fix it quickly and affordably.
Do some rooms feel chilly while others are warm? This is a classic sign of poor or deteriorating insulation. Consistent indoor temperatures rely on insulation that holds heat where it belongs.
If your heating and cooling costs are rising—even without extreme weather—your insulation may not be doing its job. Proper insulation reduces the load on your HVAC system, lowering your utility bills. Learn more about how we can help reduce your energy usage on our Energy Efficiency Services page.
Feel a breeze when walking past windows, walls, or outlets? Drafts are a red flag. Insulation helps seal air leaks and maintain a stable indoor environment, especially in older homes.
Insulation doesn’t just keep heat in—it also helps control moisture. If you’re noticing mold, mildew, or musty smells, your insulation could be failing to protect your home from humidity and water vapor infiltration.
Rodents and insects love old or damaged insulation. If you hear scurrying or see droppings, it’s time to inspect your insulation—not just for health reasons, but also for energy efficiency and long-term damage prevention.
If you’re experiencing one or more of these signs, don’t wait! Insulation issues won’t fix themselves—and the longer you wait, the more it could cost you in comfort, repairs, and wasted energy.
