Insulation isn’t blown-in insulation thought of as a budget-friendly home improvement, but the initial expense may be offset by significant energy savings and available financial incentives. In fact, according to the National Insulation Association, insulation is one of the most cost-effective property improvements homeowners can make.

Insulations are made from different materials that slow down the transfer of heat, keeping a house warm in winter and cool in summer. The material you choose, the square footage of the area being insulated, and any necessary prep work will all influence the cost of your insulation installation project. On average, a homeowner can expect to pay $0.40 to $6.75 per square foot for an insulation project, with fiberglass batt insulation falling toward the lower end of that range and cellulose spray foam toward the higher end.

When determining the amount of insulation your house needs, it’s important to measure the entire room’s perimeter and height, removing the areas of the wall that contain windows and doors. You can then use this information to calculate how much insulation you need by multiplying the walls’ height and length, and adding up the area of all windows, doors and other walls that you aren’t insulating.
