Types of Basement Insulation
There are several options to consider when choosing the right basement insulation for your home, including:
Fiberglass
Fiberglass insulation is available in batt and blown-in form and is an excellent choice for basement applications. In a finished basement, a vapor barrier will need to be installed between the fiberglass batting and the interior wall, and a pocket of air left between the insulation and the exterior wall. Fiberglass batting is an effective, affordable solution for walls and ceiling joists to reduce noise, increase efficiency, and eliminate issues with mold and humidity.
Spray Foam
Spray foam insulation is applied wet and expands as it dries to provide superior moisture control while preventing the transfer or leakage of air between the exterior and interior of your home. Spray foam insulation offers complete coverage and superior thermal performance and sound control. It’s available in open- or closed-cell formulations.
Rigid Foam Insulation
Rigid foam boards are a great alternative to fiberglass batts when used to insulate concrete basement walls, as they do not absorb water and will never compress or fall out of place.

Benefits of an Insulated Basement
Most homeowners focus their home improvement efforts on the main floor and second story, and the basement is considered to be an afterthought. However, as a connected space that is part of the overall square footage, this area can reap lasting benefits for your family with just a few changes, such as basement insulation installation:
Cost Savings
Poorly insulated walls allow the heat from your home to escape and cold air to enter. Insulating the walls and ceiling of your basement can help you save money on your monthly energy bills while adding value to your home.
Humidity Control
Ground moisture can seep through uninsulated basement walls and create a musty, damp environment that is the perfect breeding ground for mold. Closed-cell spray foam can prevent the infiltration of water and keep your basement and belongings safe and dry.
Increased Comfort
If you utilize any portion of your basement for laundry or recreational activities, you will enjoy the enhanced air quality and improved temperature and humidity control. Insulating the walls and ceiling of your basement can help increase the comfort of your main floor living space as well, thanks to warmer floors and a reduction in noise transfer.
Usability
Basement insulation can instantly increase the amount of usable square footage in your home, transforming it into a more viable option for safe, dry storage, guest space, play space, office space, exercise equipment and more!
