Would you like to see some tips on green remodeling? As a NJ Home Improvement Contractor, I can tell you that in this day and age, there is no limit to the type of room that can benefit from green remodeling ideas. Bathrooms, kitchens and any room in the house can go green. Your remodeling can range from the simple purchase of energy saving appliances in the kitchen to the installation of energy efficient windows throughout the home. Home owners are even installing solar or geothermal energy in their homes. As a licensed contractor, I can give many tips on how to go green with any home remodeling project.
One of the more practical ways is to raise the R rating capacity of your standard 2?4 wall stud being among the more frequently used methods to go green for a home addition project. If you are now building an addition and the wall studs are being framed with 2x4s, check out these tips you can ask your New Jersey Remodeling Contractors to employ in the interest of improving your insulating value.
In an installation of insulation for a 2?4 wall stud, your NJ Home Improvement Contractor usually uses an R-11, R-13 or even an R-15 batt insulation. Previously, to attain a better rating, your Home Improvement Contractor would have to upgrade the wall framing to 2?6 wall studs, after which an R-19 insulation could be installed. The difference would be substantial, because the difference in 2?4 and 2?6 studs is more than double, plus you also would have to make up the difference for using an R-19 insulation.
Thanks to advancements in green energy solutions and green remodeling, now you can have a closed cell spray foam insulation sprayed into your 2?4 bay. An inch of foam is usually equal to an insulation with an R-6 rating. If it becomes necessary, your NJ home improvement contractor can combine a 1? closed cell spray foam and up to any R-15 insulation. For 2?4 wall studs, the final result would be an R rating of 21.
It is to your advantage to have your home highly insulated because the cost of energy is going through the roof. Just a little planning ahead will enable you to save some cash as your home improvement contractor makes use of such green remodeling tips. Discuss any questions and concerns about going green during remodel with your NJ Home Improvement Contractor.
