(February 18, 2014, Ottawa, ON) A new comparison guide is available to assist Canadians in choosing the right insulation for new build and home renovation projects. Released today by NAIMA Canada, Building Insulation: A Performance Comparison for Today’s Environmental Home Builder & Renovation Project is an excellent source of information for learning about one of the most cost-effective and energy saving materials in our buildings--insulation. The guide is straight-forward and practical, providing valuable information to experienced builders and first-time home and cottage renovators. Building Insulation includes: “Building Insulation offers an industry-wide look at how best to choose and use insulation,” said Jay Nordenstrom, Executive Director, NAIMA Canada. “Insulation offers a significant return on investment, as it saves energy from the day it is installed, requires no maintenance and offers increased comfort in our buildings.” What makes Building Insulation valuable is that it offers an overview of the types, features and installation considerations of most insulation varieties. It will allow for individuals to make a comparison and choose the insulation that best suits each residential construction or renovation project.
