House freezing and energy bills doubled in Middletown?
Check your attic insulation first. Most heat escapes through the roof. Blown in insulation fixes this.
Your heating bill jumped this winter in Middletown. Some rooms stay cold no matter how high you set the thermostat. You feel drafts but can't figure out where the heat is going.
Heat rises and escapes through your attic if there's not enough insulation up there. In older Middletown homes, you might see floor joists poking through thin insulation. That means cold air is getting in and your heated air is getting out. Your furnace works overtime to keep up.
Blown in attic insulation typically costs $1,500 to $3,500 for most Middletown homes. The price depends on your square footage and how much insulation you already have. Most jobs take one day. The material is Owens Corning Atticat Pink fiberglass that gets blown into all the gaps and corners.
Go up in your attic with a flashlight this week. If you can see the wooden floor joists, you need more insulation. Look for an R-38 to R-60 rating for Ohio winters. Central Insulation Systems Inc. has installed attic insulation in Middletown since 1988. They measure your current insulation and calculate exactly how much you need.
Once your attic has proper insulation, your house stays warmer with less furnace runtime. Most homeowners see the installation pay for itself in energy savings within two to three years.
What people in Middletown say
"THEY DID A GOOD JOB AND I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE."
"I worked with Kevin Con, their field specialist. Kevin talked to me over the phone for quite awhile to make sure that I had a good estimate and knowledge of the procedure. The team came out early and they were efficient in the processes. I would highly recommend them especially because they worked so closely with our roofing team to get the job done in one day."
"I am just so happy. They came out on a Tuesday (the owner Steve and his son) and took a look and had a crew of 2 out for me the next day! They got there at 8:30 am and all was completed by 2:00. The follow up was excellent. I could just go on and on. I am very impressed and want to insulate everything NOW because they were so excellent!"
