INSULATION SERVICES BY LEON CONSTRUCTION

Investing in proper insulation offers substantial benefits. Here’s how our tailored solutions stand out:

1. Energy Efficiency

• Spray Foam Insulation: Creates an airtight seal that minimizes air leakage, reducing energy waste and lowering heating and cooling demands.
• Cellulose Insulation: Provides high thermal resistance and fills gaps effectively, improving energy efficiency, even in hard-to-reach areas.
• Sound Batt Insulation: Enhances comfort by reducing noise pollution while maintaining thermal performance.
  

2. Improved Comfort

• Eliminate drafts and cold spots by ensuring even temperature distribution throughout your home.
• Sound batt insulation creates a peaceful indoor environment by dampening noise from both external and internal sources.

3. Environmental Benefits

• Spray foam and cellulose insulation improve your home’s energy performance, cutting greenhouse gas emissions by reducing reliance on heating and cooling systems.

4. Moisture and Mold Prevention

• Spray foam insulation’s vapor-resistant properties help prevent condensation, protecting your home from mold growth and structural damage.

5. Increased Property Value

• A well-insulated home is more attractive to potential buyers due to its reduced operating costs and enhanced living experience.

6. Soundproofing Solutions

• Sound batt insulation ensures quieter, more private indoor spaces, whether it’s a home office, nursery, or entertainment room.

7. Federal Tax Credits and Incentives Under the Inflation Reduction Act

• The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 introduced the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit, effective from January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2032.
• Homeowners can claim 30% of qualifying insulation material costs annually, with a maximum credit of $1,200 per year.
• Insulation upgrades are eligible for these tax credits as part of the government’s push for energy efficiency and sustainability.

*Additional programs, like the High-Efficiency Electric Home Rebate Act, may offer rebates for insulation improvements based on household income, further reducing upfront costs for qualifying homeowners.

8. Cost Savings

• With proper insulation, EPA estimates that homeowners can save an average of 15% on heating and cooling costs (or an average of 11% on total energy costs) by air sealing their homes and adding insulation in attics, floors over crawl spaces, and accessible basement rim joists. This estimate is based on energy modeling of cost-effective improvements made to ’typical’ existing U.S. homes with a weighted composite of characteristics (using Beacon Residential™). The modeled results are corroborated by the field experience of professional building science contractors who have done air sealing and insulation work for more than 20 years.
