Demilec USA: Home Insulation Vital During Winter Months

PHILADELPHIA, PA, October 15, 2012 (Press-News.org) Although upcoming winter months may encourage many Americans to turn on the heat, others are concerned about how heavy energy use can impact living expenses and the environment. A recent article from The Gonzales Inquirer reveals that there are several steps families can take to reduce their energy use during colder months, while also improving the interiors of their home. Demilec USA, a manufacturer of eco-friendly spray foam insulation, supports many of the tips in the article, while also encouraging homeowners to stay proactive and seek out home improvement measures to improve energy use during the winter season.

According to the article, "As the temperatures drop, it takes more energy and money to power our homes. Research conducted by EnergyStar.gov found that lighting accounts for 12 percent and heating nearly 30 percent of energy usage in an average American home." Demilec USA responds in a recent press statement, "Many homeowners can save money on lighting costs by changing out traditional light bulbs for more efficient and longer-lasting CFL bulbs. However, for homeowners to really make a dent in their winter energy usage, they may want to seek out long-term solutions, such as adding insulation to the home."

Demilec USA helps many homeowners achieve greater energy efficiency by manufacturing eco-friendly polyurethane foam insulation and coatings. Many consumers have appreciated the value Demilec USA products have added to their home, in addition to the fact that it causes less of an impact on the environment than alternative insulation materials.

While insulation is a great step forward to creating an energy-efficient home, the article reveals that many homeowners can take other actions to improve energy use by considering their interior decor. The article notes that individuals can remedy heat loss from windows by using effective sealants and making sure windows are fit securely. Although interior insulation can keep indoor heat from escaping, the article adds that painting walls dark colors and adding fabrics to those surfaces can provide an additional shield of warmth to a room.

As makers of spray foam insulation, Demilec USA strives to help homeowners achieve their dream homes while reducing one's carbon footprint. While insulation can help layer a home's interior, the company notes that decor improvements can enhance the physical presence of the home. In its press statement, Demilec USA concludes, "After considering spray foam insulation as an energy upgrade for your home, you may also look at your interior decor for an impact on interior comfort and your energy bills."
