This Atlanta customer decided to improve their home with open cell foam insulation.

So what were some of the benefits to consider?

Well, open cell foam insulation provides an effective air seal which greatly reduces energy loss and improves the over-all indoor air quality of your home. The difference you can actually feel in your home can be quite remarkable.

Open cell foam expands to fill every opening that can potentially leak air and seals the home to result in a more energy efficient living environment.

It also reduces the penetration of moisture and outdoor allergens that can affect the comfort of your family.

As an extra benefit, open cell foam insulation acts as an incredibly effective sound barrier for wind and traffic noises.

If you are a Georgia Power customer or a City of Atlanta resident, you could potentially save even more by adding open cell foam to your home and applying for the rebates currently offered!

How would you like for when you set your thermostat to be 75 degrees when you get home at 6:00pm for your home to actually be 75 degrees when you get home?  The problem with some programmable thermostats is that when you set your temperature at 6:00 pm for 75, the thermostat doesnt start working towards that temperature until 6:00 pm.

You could always set the thermostat to come on at 5:00 pm so that the house is cool when you get home, but what if its doesnt take that long to get to your ideal temperature?  Then you have wasted energy!  Here is where adaptive intelligent recovery comes in…

Adaptive intelligent recovery is found on Honeywell programmable thermostats and is often called Smart Recovery.  It is a function which allows the thermostat to track how long it takes to pre-heat or pre-cool a room during the changing seasons. It uses this information to start heating or cooling a room prior to the start of a programmed period.

This means that if you set the thermostat to come on at 6:00 pm and the room temperature to be 75 degrees; then at 6pm the room is exactly 75 degrees. You won’t have to try and guess how long you should set the thermostat before you wake up or arrive home from work.  This also only requires a gradual heating or cooling which is much more energy efficient.

Let us, Georgia Air Contractors, install one of these thermostats for you today and start enjoying the comfort and savings of smarter thermostat!
