Many homeowners underestimate the importance of a well insulated home. Choosing the right insulation will prevent many problems down the road. Spray foam insulation is a cost-effective and smart choice for your home.

The warm air will rise until it cools from the colder attic temperature, which will then sink creating a convection loop. large_chp4-2   The video explains the transfer of air temperature through a wall cavity.
