Summer is winding down, and even in Las Vegas, the upcoming winter nights can become downright chilly. If last winter you shivered yourself to sleep, or spent more money than you wanted on the heating bill, now is the perfect time to think about adding insulation to existing walls in your home. 

Additional insulation can help to reduce your heating and cooling bill, while still maintaining your home at a comfortable temperature year-round.

Older homes typically have outdated insulation which wastes a home's energy and your money. In homes with under insulated walls and lofts, up to 60% of the expense of heating a home is lost to the outside. Many homeowners find that by updating the insulation in their existing home to current code-compliant outer wall, ceiling, and floor levels, they can save as much as 35% in energy costs for the typical single-family home. 

Do you live in a home built more than five years ago?  Have you noticed certain rooms in your home are significantly colder or warmer than other rooms although you have central heating and cooling systems? Your home may benefit from adding insulation to existing walls.
