Oregon Shepherd, a leading alternative insulation materials company has recently published a home insulation guide to help homeowners looking to improve or upgrade their home insulation.
The guide titled "12 Reasons to Choose Natural Wool Insulation" provides critical information that consumers will find useful when selecting alternative insulation products.
Alternative Insulation Materials
According to Bob Workman, general manager at Oregon Shepherd, "How you insulate your home and the type of insulation you choose is arguably the single most important thing a homeowner can do to reduce your energy consumption and save money."
"There are, of course, many types of insulation to choose from which can make the selection process difficult. "Trying to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer is and should be the goal when choosing insulation," continued Workman. "The purpose of this Alternative Home Insulation Guide is to help homeowners understand why natural wool insulation may be their best choice."
"Natural Wool Insulation has long offered a good value/return on investment for homeowners due to its ease of installation, proven performance, and energy savings. In addition, natural wool insulation reduces heating and cooling costs by eliminating voids and air pockets common with other insulation materials."
Ever since introducing its line of natural insulation products, Oregon Shepherd has been getting hundreds of questions a month from homeowners and contractors. "We decided the best way to reach as many people as possible was to publish this free helpful guide," said Workman.
