Insulation Makes Difference
SUSAN MILLSAP
HOME ECONOMIST
GEORGIA POWER
COMPANY
Many homeowners in this
area could make their homes
quieter and more comfor
table while reducing their
heating and cooling costs 20
to 50 perent. How? The
answer, in a word, is
insulation.
Insulation inwalls, ceilings
and floors and acts as a
barrier to the flow of heat,
helping to keep heat from
entering the house in
summer and escaping to the
outside in winter. Even a
house not air conditioned,
will be more comfortable in
the summer if it is properly
insulated.
Roughly 50 percent of
Georgia homes over 15 years
old are not well insulated.
Although, the initial insula
tion project may be expen
THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1975
sive, the insulation will pay
for itself in three to four
years through savings on
heating and cooling bills.
About half as much elec
tricity, or any other energy,
is required to cool or heat a
properly insulated home as
is needed to cool or heat a
home that is not insulated.
Sometimes walls and floors
of a finished home are
difficult and expensive to
insulate. The good news here
is that the area where
insulation is most needed -
the ceiling - is also the place
where it is easiest to install.
Homeowners who insulate
the ceiling alone can expect
considerable savings on
cooling and heating costs.
A home in this part of the
country should have at least
six inches of insulation in the
ceiling, three inches in the
wall and two inches in the
floor. Good insulation should
be lightweight, yet stable,

odorless, vermin-proof and
not given to compression or
deterioration. A wide vareity
of such materials is avail
able.
Rock wool and fiberglass in
batts or blankets rolls are the
most popular insulation
materials. Mineral wool
comes in granular form for
pouring from sacks or
blowing by hose into attics or
walls.
Insulation engineers have
computed resistance (R)
factors for different types
and shapes of insulation. The
higher the R-number, the
greater the insulation per
formance of the product. In
this area, insulation with a
resistance factor of R-20 to
R-22 should be used for
ceilings.
Homeowners should re
member that such activities
as cooking, washing, and
showering produce large
amounts of water vapor. This
vapor can saturate insulation
and reduce its effectiveness.
Such a vapor barrier as a
sheet of plastic, metal foil, or
treated paper between the
insulation and the wall will
prevent this. Many manu
facturers of batt and roll type
insulation include a vapor
barrier as part of the batt or
roll.
