Insulate Your Workplace and Reap the Rewards

There’s never been a better time to be energy-conscious in the workplace. With energy costs soaring due to world events and the post-pandemic boom, it’s critical to save money and reduce costs each month. It’s simply not affordable to waste energy now, and to have to pay for heating and cooling that just gets wasted in spaces that are not fully or properly insulated.

Taking steps to conserve energy is also good for the planet. We’ve known that going green was good for us and the environment for some time. Now, with all of the extreme weather events being experienced around the globe, it’s clear that our continued ability to thrive on the planet is directly related to our efforts to protect the environment. Severe heat waves, catastrophic floods and seemingly unending cycles of drought and deluge are costing us too much across the world.

How Installing Window Insulation Can Help

If you want to improve the efficiency of the heating and cooling systems in your workplace, consider installing window film insulation. During hot summer months, the film helps block the heat of the sun and also protects those inside from harmful UV rays.

In the winter, window film insulation functions as another layer of insulation on your existing windows. This is especially helpful if your windows are single or double pane. The film acts to reflect the heat back inside, thus saving you on winter heating costs.

Insulate Building Walls and the Roof

To keep your workplace comfortable and to save on energy costs, it’s also important to insulate the walls and roof of your building. These areas are responsible for a significant amount of heating and cooling loss.

You can choose from a variety of insulation materials to improve your energy efficiency. Fiberglass insulation, which is made of fine glass fibers, is often used in ceilings and walls. Cellulose insulation from recycled paper can provide a sustainable option.

Improve Air tightness in Your Building

It’s also important to test and improve the air tightness of your commercial building. When you hire a contractor to do an energy audit, they can perform tests that will show you how much heating and cooling you are losing due to unwanted airflow and leaks.

Once you know how much air you are losing, you can take appropriate steps to help seal the building. You can use weather-stripping to seal any gaps around windows and doors. Spray foam insulation is great for hard-to-reach areas around duct work and pipes. By taking these steps to improve energy-efficiency, you’ll save money and make the workplace more comfortable too.
