Shipping Container Insulation In Northern IL, Rockford, Chicago Suburbs & Southern WI

Why Insulate A Shipping Container?

Shipping containers have many uses: storage, offices, living quarters, greenhouses, sheds, pools and more! Insulating a shipping container is extremely beneficial for keeping a steady temperature year round. Insulation keeps the container cool in the summer and warm in winter. Additionally, the insulation deadens sound, which keeps the interior quiet and peaceful.

An insulated shipping container is also pest resistant as the insulation blocks off small cracks and gaps that bugs can crawl through. Finally, insulation prevents moisture in a shipping container which stops mold, mildew and structural damage.

What Is The Best Insulation Product For A Shipping Container?

As shipping containers have many uses and purposes, one insulation product may work for one use and not for another. Schedule a free assessment with our team of certified technicians and go over the best options for your project.

Rim Joist Insulation

February 24, 2023/in Uncategorized

Rim Joist Insulation In Northern IL, Rockford, Chicago Suburbs & Southern WI

What Is A Rim Joist?

Joists are the main elements that create the frame of a home’s ceiling and floor. Generally, ceiling and floor joists are built out of engineered or 2x lumber. The joists are placed about 16 inches on center apart. The wood that wraps around the edge of the floor framing is called the rim joist or band joist. Looking at the outside of a home as it is being framed, the rim joist is the solid band of lumber spanning along the side of the floor frame.

The main purpose of a rim joist is to give stability and strength to the other floor joists. Floor joists are held into the rim joists by nails which prevent the boards from falling over to the side and tie the flooring system together. The rim joists keep the floor joists upright and level.

Why Are Rim Joists Important To Insulate?

Many homes are improperly insulated on the rim joists, allowing cold air around the foundation to easily enter the home. Insulating rim joists prevents drafts, cold temperatures, moisture, mold, pests and structural damages.

When a home has uninsulated rim joists, the only layer between the interior and exterior of the home is the housewrap, sheathing (which is only about 1/2 in – 3/4 in thick) and the siding. Rim joists are considered above grade and should be insulated to a minimum of R-20 in climate zones 5-8 and a minimum of R-13 in climate zones 1-4. Rim joist insulation is now required by most current building codes.

What Is The Best Product For Rim Joist Insulation?

The most common products used for rim joist insulation are foam board and spray foam. Each product has unique benefits and differs in cost. Read below to learn more and decide which product is best for your home. Also, feel free to contact our certified technicians for a free quote and assessment for your rim joist insulation.

Mobile Home Insulation

February 14, 2023/in Uncategorized

Mobile Home Insulation In Northern IL, Rockford, Chicago Suburbs & Southern WI

Why Insulate A Mobile Home?

The walls of a mobile home are incredibly thin, allowing hot or cold temperatures to become easily transferred between the inside and outside of the home. Adding insulation to a mobile home increases comfort, keeps cooler temperatures in summer, warmer temperatures in winter, prevents mold or mildew, reduces moisture and blocks out pests.

Insulating the crawlspace of a mobile home prevents frozen pipes, keeps floors warmer and prevents cool drafts from entering the home. Most importantly, insulating the attic prevents warm air from rising up and escaping during winter, keeping the interior feeling cozy and preventing the HVAC from overworking.

Which Areas Of My Mobile Home Should I Insulate?

A mobile home has many areas which are susceptible to energy loss, luckily adding insulation helps protect the home and lowers costly energy payments. The following chart describes the most crucial areas of the mobile home to insulate and why each area is important.

Solar Powered Attic Vents In Northern IL & Southern WI

What Are Solar Attic Vents?

Retrofit Insulation

January 18, 2023/in Uncategorized

Retrofit Insulation In Northern IL, Rockford, Chicago Suburbs & Southern WI

What Is Retrofit Insulation?

Retrofit insulation is the process of adding insulation to an already insulated building when the existing insulation has lost it’s R-Value or effective insulating properties. Insulation is inserted into the walls through small holes drilled one yard above the floor and one foot below the ceiling. An insulation blower machine or spray foam machine is used to fill the walls with spray foam or any type of loose fill material such as rockwool, fiberglass, cellulose or denim.

After the walls have been retrofitted with insulation, a small plastic cap is inserted into the hole and the area is skim coated and repainted to match the wall. Exterior walls of the home may be filled by removing pieces of the siding and then covering the area.

What is the cost of retrofit insulation?

Spray injection foam provides an air seal and may be able to reach parts of the inside wall unreachable by a loose-fill blow-in product. Spray foam is higher in cost due to it’s special capabilities which may not be the best option for a home owner on a budget.
