Professional Insulation Contractors in Columbus – Gale Insulation

Attics can be extremely hot in the summer and cold in the winter. As much as 85% of the heat lost in a house passes through the attic. Installing insulation to proper levels and R-values can improve your attic and home’s energy efficiency. Gale Insulation’s insulation experts can evaluate your current attic insulation levels and then recommend the correct type and amount of additional insulation needed to reduce heat loss, lower utility bills, and decrease wear and tear on your HVAC system.

Homes and businesses in Columbus often lack insulation in areas that are not visible (e.g., inside walls). Some estimates say up to 90% of homes are under-insulated. Gale Insulation’s insulation contractors can drill a small hole into a wall and then blow in a loose-fill insulation product to seal cracks and gaps around pipes, cables, doors, and more. Our drill-and-fill application provides lasting comfort and superior noise control.

Wall insulation installed by Gale Insulation can cut down on cold winter drafts and hot rooms in the summer. Wall insulation can reduce your heating and cooling costs. Installing wall insulation can also help reduce noise transfer between rooms in homes and businesses. We install insulation during construction or even in existing interior and exterior walls.

Crawl spaces have areas that can and should be addressed with insulation. Rim joists should be insulated and air sealed; this perimeter area is frequently a source of air infiltration. Gale Insulation can install Insulation and vapor barriers along the floor, even if it is dirt. Insulation should also be added along the crawl space’s exterior foundation walls.

Installing floor insulation can make floors feel less cold underfoot, especially during the winter. Floor insulation is also very helpful for noise reduction inside a home or business. If you install a fire retardant insulation product, you can help improve the safety of your building in case of fire. Let Gale Insulation show you how floor insulation can improve your energy efficiency and comfort.

Ceiling insulation helps reduce air flow and noise transfer between levels of residential and commercial structures. If you have a cathedral ceiling, insulation can moderate temperatures while preventing moisture intrusion and roof degradation. Gale Insulation installs ceiling insulation products as a thermal and acoustical barrier and also for increased fire resistance.

Older homes and businesses in the Columbus area may have some insulation installed, but over time, that insulation may underperform due to a build up of dirt, dust, and moisture. When older insulation becomes less energy efficient, insulation removal is an important first step before replacing the insulation with newer, more energy efficient materials.
