Insulation

Insulation slows or stops heat transfer. If your building has very little insulation, your heating and ventilation equipment could be overtaxed.

If you are replacing your roof and/or cladding, it is an excellent time to upgrade your insulation levels. We provide financial incentives to upgrade roof and wall insulation to your existing building.

Nominal vs. effective R-value

When you participate in the Commercial Building Envelope Program, the R-value of all the components of a roof or wall assembly layers, the effective R-value, is taken into consideration, and not just the R-value of the insulation component in the assembly, or the nominal R-value.
