or more away in the trash can each month ?
Of course you wouldn't, but your home or office may be doing exactly that without your knowledge. It's no secret that heating and cooling cost ( energy cost / utility bills ) have been on the rise over the past 10 - 15 years. A big part of the money you are paying is actually for wasted energy due to ineffective or insufficient insulation, maybe as much as 20% - 30 %.
A wise person like you knows that's not very smart to waste money. You work too hard to earn it, so it doesn't make good sense to throw it away paying for needlessly wasted energy. After all, the power companies have a lot more money than you or I, so I do not feel that we need to give them any more than what is absolutely necessary. It is my opinion that we should all do whatever we can to reduce our energy consumption and stop paying the power companies for needlessly wasted energy, and besides for our own good, we really should do everything we can to reduce our C0 2 emmissions wherever we can. Using less energy will help to do this.
Even if we get a mild winter or a cool summer from time to time, historically, energy cost are rising. Don't believe me ?, just dig up your old utility bills and look at them, you will see that you are not only paying more now for electricity, natural gas, heating oil, etc. than you were just a few years ago, but you are using more. So don't get lulled into a false sense of security by a mild season or two! You can $ave a lot during mild seasons, and SAVE A LOT MORE during the colder and hotter seasons.
So the question is " How do you as the homeowner, business owner control and lower these cost and should you do something about it now ?
ANSWER = Yes you should !, and you should DO IT NOW ! - Reason is simple. You will still save money during mild winters and summers, and will save even more during harsh / cold winters and hot summers. -- and you should have a little extra cash to make these energy improvements during these mild times since you don't have to pay as much to the electric, nat'l gas, heating oil, etc. company.
Let's look at
what you might have already done to lower those high
energy co$t. You most likely have followed the good advise given by
multiple sources, such as caulking & weather stripping around all
your doors and windows. You may have even changed your windows to more
energy efficient ones. You may have also added more batt or blown in
ceiling insulation.
Installed "set back " thermostats, everything you thought would help.
This I am sure has helped somewhat, but has doing all of this helped
enough? Perhaps not, as many have found out by virtue of higher overall
energy cost. It's just that all those measures of added ceiling
insulation, new
windows, caulk and weather stripping, etc just can do so much, and in
many cases, not nearly enough.
The problem is that NONE of these measures DEAL with the REALLY BIG, MOST DIRECT CAUSE of heating and cooling cost. The REAL PROBLEM is RADIANT HEAT TRANSFER.
The biggest part of HEAT LOSS in winter is by RADIATIONAL HEAT LOSS through roofs, ceilings, walls and floors. It's also the largest part of HEAT GAIN in summer. ( see charts on linked page )
It's a basic
function of Physics, these energy improvements such as adding more
fiberglass or cellulose insulation stops heat loss
and heat gain by CONDUCTION
and CONVECTION, but
have little or no effect on Radiational Heat
Transfer.
Here is where we can help. Our BTUFOIL REFLECTIVE INSULATION & BTUBUSTER RADIANT BARRIER products are specifically designed to STOP 96% - 97 % of the Radiational Heat Loss and Radiational Heat Gain, in addition to helping to control heat loss and heat gain by convection and conduction. Our BTUFOIL REFLECTIVE INSULATION & BTUBUSTER RADIANT BARRIER products stop heat transfer in ALL THREE MODES OF TRANSFER, Season after Season, Year after Year.
O K, what should you do next? Well here are links to pages that will show you what can be done and which of our products to use to get HIGHER ENERGY EFFICIENCY and LOWER HEATING & COOLING BILLS all year long.
