Los Angeles, CA (The Open Press) December 29, 2008 -- It is promising to be a tough winter, and homeowners are being advised to insulate themselves not only against the cold but against soaring energy costs. Inadequate insulation in a building can be responsible for loss of up to 50 percent of a home's energy, and protection against incoming drafts and loss of heat will be vital this winter.
There are areas in homes particularly susceptible to escaping heat. These include the attic, one of the largest sources of potential heat loss and often neglected, even in homes less than ten years old. Warm air rises, and if an attic is lacking the proper type and amount of insulation, heat will escape through the roof. Often recommended is mineral wool or blown-in insulation.
Another crucial area is that of basements and crawlspaces. In an otherwise well-insulated house, as much as 25 percent of the total home heat loss can occur through non-insulated foundation walls and floors, and similar insulation types are recommended.
The cold snap now sweeping across North America will create demand for such insulation from those who had not prepared beforehand. Manufacturers and providers of insulation are faced with the challenge of packaging insulation in such a way that it can be neatly and efficiently shipped, stored and stacked for sale.
Many manufacturers of insulation products rely on heavy duty insulation bags and balers from PolyPAK America due to its proprietary Rhino™ film composition. This formula is specifically designed for the baling of loose or compressed materials. The bag's outer low-slip surface allows for easy shipping and stacking, while its high-slip inside surface allows for easy opening and faster loading. The material also has a unique quality to allow the package to remain square for better looks and stacking.
Available in custom sizes and colors, these insulation plastic bags can be printed to a manufacturer's exact specifications.
To curtail energy costs homeowners will have to insulate against what is proving to be a particularly harsh winter. Heavy duty insulation bags from PolyPAK America make it possible to bring them the insulation they need—neatly, cleanly and efficiently.
