Retrofitting Spray Foam Insulation in Older Homes (1920s–1960s)
Homes built between the 1920s and 1960s often lack adequate wall insulation due to minimal building code requirements at the time. If your home feels noticeably colder in the winter, or the interior walls are cold to the touch, it may be a sign that your insulation is insufficient or missing altogether.
Retrofitting with spray foam insulation is a highly effective solution. It involves injecting spray foam into wall cavities without the need for major demolition. This method not only improves thermal performance but also helps with:
- Air Sealing - Spray foam expands to fill gaps and cracks, reducing drafts.
- Moisture Control - It is a barrier against moisture intrusion, helping prevent mould and mildew.
- Energy Efficiency - Improved insulation can significantly reduce heating and cooling costs.
If you're planning a renovation or replacing siding, this is an ideal time for retrofitting because it provides easier access to wall cavities. If you're ready to make your home more comfortable and energy-efficient, contact Sunny South Inc.'s certified insulation professionals today. We'll schedule an assessment and explore your retrofit options so you can insulate today for a warmer, more cost-effective tomorrow.
Is Your Alberta Home Facing High Energy Bills? Retrofitting Insulation Could Be the Solution
If you're experiencing high heating and cooling costs, your home may be under-insulated. One of the most effective solutions is retrofitting with spray foam insulation. An overworked HVAC system, frequent temperature fluctuations, or cold drafts are all signs that your home may be losing energy through poorly insulated walls. Sunny South Inc. retrofitting improves home energy efficiency, reduces utility bills, and enhances indoor comfort- especially in older homes built before modern insulation standards.
