Home hint: insulation cools and warms the home all at once

Insulation is like a shade umbrella for your house in summer. It will instantly slash home heating bills by up to a quarter and your cooling bills by up to one-third if you install insulation in the ceiling. It won’t make your house look any different but it will be up to seven degrees warmer in winter and five degrees cooler in summer than a similar home without ceiling insulation.
