AWC is a leading energy services company that provides a full compliment of services. We offer consulting services, general contracting, full scale integration, installation, sustainability services, and cost-effective energy solutions for commercial, industrial, residential, retail and non-profit customers.
"Lomont and his team were great to work with, simply professional, knowledgeable and so accommodating. I hired him based upon an energy audit we had done by another company. He basically "cleaned up their mess" since they did not do a thorough report in order for us to get our energy rebate etc. He went above and beyond the scope of what we hired him to do, always with a friendly greeting and smile. He reached out to the appropriate agency to push to get the credits we were due and did work that should have been done by the energy audit company. I highly recommend Lomont."

R-value measures how well insulation resists heat flow, which directly affects your home's energy efficiency. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation. By calculating the R-value needed for your specific climate and home design, you can choose the right insulation materials and thickness to keep your home comfortable and reduce heating and cooling costs.
You don't need to remove your old insulation before adding new insulation, as long as it's in good condition. Adding new insulation over existing materials can improve your home's energy efficiency. For example, you can install blown-in insulation around fiberglass batts or place rigid insulation over existing layers to enhance the overall R-value. However, if your current insulation is wet, moldy, or damaged, you should remove it to avoid health risks and maintain optimal performance.
Installing insulation typically takes five to twelve hours for batts or boards, and two to five hours for spray foam or blown-in insulation. The exact time depends on the type of material and your home's layout. If you need to remove old insulation, have a larger home, or hard-to-reach areas, the project may take longer.
The International Association of Certified Home Inspectors has said foam board insulation can last up to 100 years if properly installed. Some insulation materials can suffer from water damage or start to sag over many years, thus reducing their insulating ability. Foam boards shouldn't suffer from sagging but have the potential to get damaged. Any broken pieces of foam board can reduce its insulating effectiveness.
