Save Energy with insulating paint Nanotechnology
Why should I add insulation to my home?
Improving your home insulation system is one of the fastest and most
cost-effective ways to increase energy efficiency and comfort in your
home. By investing in proper home insulation and weatherization
products, you can significantly reduce your heating costs and reduce
your cooling costs.
The chart below shows the average percentage of energy usage in a home.
There are several advantages to adding insulation to your home:
Proper insulation reduces energy costs.
A well-insulated structure does not gain or lose heat as quickly as a
poorly-insulated one, so it is easier to maintain a comfortable
temperature.
The retention of
conditioned air lowers the demand on the heating and cooling systems.
This reduces operating costs and extends the life of the system.
Improving your home's insulating system is one of the fastest and most
cost-effective ways to increase energy efficiency and comfort in your
home.
Where should I add insulation?
Adding insulation in the areas shown below can help you save energy.
How can Nansulate® help?
Nansulate®
is easy to apply yourself and can be sprayed, brushed or rolled on in a
variety of places. It can also be painted over with a color paint.
Nansulate® will help to provide a thermal insulation barrier (keeping
heat in or out - depending on the season); and will also help with
moisture control (controlling moisture passing through insulation and
collecting in your home's structure). Nansulate® provides protection
heat transfer, while also offering you a cost effective, do it yourself
means of increasing your home's energy efficiency which will help lower
fuel bills.
Click
the thumbnail below to see how Nansulate® appears on pre-painted
surfaces (used in these pictures as wall insulation and ceiling
insulation). You will see that your original color will show through,
with a slight sheen added.
