There’s nothing like walking into a perfectly toasty home on a cold winter day, or opening your door to a blast of cool air when it’s hot outside. And though there are many factors that influence your home’s temperature and overall comfort, insulation and air sealing play a significant role.
Insulation and air sealing enhance home comfort by maintaining consistent indoor temperatures, preventing drafts, and reducing temperature inconsistencies. Proper insulation keeps your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer by minimizing heat transfer through walls, ceilings, and floors. And air sealing eliminates leaks, ensuring that conditioned air stays inside and unconditioned air and pollutants stay out, creating a more stable and healthy home environment.
But when it comes to upgrading your home’s insulation, are certain times of year better than others?
Factors to Consider When Planning Insulation Upgrades
When planning insulation upgrades to your home, it’s important to consider the time of year and outdoor temperatures to decide when to make these upgrades. Many homeowners opt to upgrade during spring or fall, since mild weather often makes installation easier and more comfortable for everyone. Upgrading during these times also ensures your home is well-prepared for the more extreme conditions and temperatures of summer and winter, keeping your home comfortable and efficient even when your heating and cooling systems are being used more often.
Though there are benefits to upgrading your Wright City home during the spring and fall, insulation and air sealing upgrades can be done at any time of the year. Our team at Insulation Pros uses modern installation techniques and materials that allow for effective upgrades year-round—even during more extreme temperatures.

- Lower energy bills: Reduced heating and cooling costs year-round
