Lower Your Energy Bills
July 30, 2008 by admin
Just walk down to your basement and you know it immediately-the basement is different than any other area of your home. It’s cooler, more humid and prone to moisture. The basement also has plumbing and other mechanical equipment that, when covered with drywall, become difficult and costly to access. Owens Corning knew there had to be a better way to finish the basement.
With Owens Corning’s history as a leader in home building products and experts in building science, we had the resources and knowledge to create a better finishing solution for basements. Mold and moisture are big concerns in basements, so they utilized their expertise with fiberglass insulation (we invented it) to create insulated walls that breathe, don’t trap moisture, and make rooms warm and quiet too! The walls are also designed to be quickly and easily removed for access to your foundation and plumbing.
Compared to the expense and hassle of building an addition, finishing your basement is a great value. A 2004 Remodeling Magazine Cost vs. Value Report stated that the average cost per square foot to finish a basement is less than half that to put on an addition. Remember, when you finish your basement you already own the space… take advantage of it!
Finishing your basement is not only a good investment that can increase the value of your home; it can also lower your energy bills by 30%.

[…] Owens Corning has been finishing basements and innovating the industry for 65 years. Now, they proudly install insulation to keep you and your family warm this winter! When you install the AttiCat® Insulation Blowing Machine in your attic it conditions the AttiCat® Expanding Blown-In PINK FiberglasTM Insulation by breaking it up and fluffing it, adding millions of the tiny air pockets that give the material its insulating power.The insulation is conditioned further throughout the length of the hose, and as it bounces its way up to your attic, more and more air pockets are added, increasing its insulating power even more. And since FiberglasTM insulation will not settle, you can stay warm all winter and still save loads on your home energy costs! […]
