Tailored Insulation and Air Sealing Solutions for a Healthier, More Efficient Home.

Enhancing your home's insulation and air sealing is crucial for maintaining comfort, reducing energy costs, and ensuring a healthier living environment. At Climate Giant, we offer comprehensive services tailored to your home's unique needs, focusing on key areas to maximize efficiency and comfort.

Why Insulation and Air Sealing Matter

The Foundation of Comfort and Efficiency

  • Energy Efficiency

    A properly insulated and air-sealed home prevents valuable conditioned air from escaping and stops unconditioned air from seeping in. This means your heating and cooling systems won’t need to work as hard to maintain your desired temperature, reducing energy consumption and leading to significant savings on utility bills. In fact, homes with effective insulation and air sealing can save homeowners up to 20% on heating and cooling costs annually.

  • Enhanced Comfort

    Drafts and temperature fluctuations are common in homes that lack proper insulation and air sealing. By addressing these issues, you can eliminate cold spots in the winter and overly warm areas in the summer. The result is a consistently comfortable environment where every room feels just right, no matter the season.

  • Improved Air Quality

    Gaps and cracks in your home allow outdoor air to infiltrate, bringing in pollutants, allergens, and moisture. These factors can negatively impact your indoor air quality, especially for those with allergies or respiratory concerns. By sealing your home, you create a cleaner, healthier living space with reduced exposure to dust, mold spores, and outdoor contaminants.

  • Environmental Impact

    Homes that waste energy contribute to higher greenhouse gas emissions. By improving your home’s insulation and sealing air leaks, you reduce your energy consumption, helping to lower your carbon footprint. Not only does this contribute to a healthier planet, but it also aligns with sustainable living practices that protect natural resources for future generations.

Air Sealing

Air leaks are a major cause of energy loss, high utility bills, and drafts. Common problem areas include plumbing and wiring penetrations, attic access points, recessed lights, windows, and doors, allowing conditioned air to escape and unconditioned air to enter.


At Climate Giant, we specialize in air sealing to eliminate these issues and improve energy efficiency. Using advanced diagnostics, we identify and seal leaks with precision, reducing heating and cooling costs by up to 15%, improving air quality, and maintaining consistent indoor temperatures.

Insulation Installation

Insulation and air sealing work together to create a powerful barrier against heat transfer, keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer while minimizing energy waste. At Climate Giant, we understand that every home is unique, which is why we customize our insulation solutions to meet your specific needs. We offer a range of advanced insulation options, including spray foam and blown-in cellulose, each designed to deliver exceptional performance and unique benefits. Explore our offerings to find the perfect solution for your home.

Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation is one of the most effective and versatile options available, offering superior performance for homes of all shapes and sizes. Here’s why it stands out:

  • Maximum R-Value

    With an R-value of 6.2 or higher per inch, spray foam delivers unmatched insulation performance, keeping your home warm in winter and cool in summer.

  • Air Barrier and Insulation in One Step

    Spray foam expands to fill gaps and cracks, creating a seamless air barrier that prevents energy loss.

  • Waterproof Protection

    Closed-cell spray foam not only insulates but also resists moisture, making it ideal for areas prone to humidity or water exposure.

  • Long-Lasting Performance

    Unlike fiberglass, spray foam won’t sag, settle, or lose its effectiveness over time.

  • Fills Hard-to-Reach Spaces

    Perfect for irregular or hard-to-access areas, spray foam adheres securely to surfaces for comprehensive coverage.

Cellulose Insulation

Cellulose insulation provides an eco-friendly, high-performance solution for improving your home’s energy efficiency. This insulation is made from up to 85% recycled materials, offering a “super-green” option for environmentally conscious homeowners.

  • Superior Thermal Barrier

    Blown-in or dense-packed cellulose conforms to wall cavities and attics, eliminating gaps for consistent insulation coverage.

  • Energy Savings

    Studies show that cellulose insulation can reduce heating and cooling costs by as much as 32%.

  • Safe and Sustainable

    Treated with borate for fire resistance, mold prevention, and insect repellence, cellulose insulation is free from harmful chemicals like formaldehyde and VOCs

  • Flexible Application

    Cellulose can be installed over existing insulation in attics, or injected into wall cavities for an airtight, dense thermal barrier.

The Hidden Cost of Icicles

Icicles may look picturesque, but they’re often a sign of poor insulation and heat loss. When warm air escapes through your roof, it melts the snow, which then refreezes at the edges—leading to ice dams that can cause costly damage. A properly insulated and sealed home keeps the heat inside, preventing icicles and protecting your roof.

Insulation & Air Sealing FAQs

  • How do I know if my home needs better insulation?

    Signs of inadequate insulation include uneven room temperatures, drafts near windows and doors, high energy bills, or cold walls and floors in winter. Ice dams on your roof in winter also indicate warm air escaping due to poor insulation. Older homes are especially prone to insufficient insulation. A professional energy audit can assess your needs. Contact Climate Giant to schedule your free energy audit and improve your home’s comfort and efficiency.

  • What are the benefits of air sealing in addition to insulation?

    Air sealing works hand-in-hand with insulation to maximize your home's energy efficiency and comfort. While insulation slows the transfer of heat, air sealing prevents conditioned air from escaping and unconditioned air from entering through gaps, cracks, and leaks. Together, they create a comprehensive barrier against energy loss, helping to lower your utility bills and reduce drafts. Air sealing also improves indoor air quality by blocking allergens, pollutants, and moisture from infiltrating your home, while protecting against issues like mold growth and structural damage caused by excess humidity. Combining air sealing with proper insulation ensures consistent temperatures, a healthier living environment, and enhanced overall energy performance.

  • Are there any incentives or programs to help cover the cost of insulation and air sealing in New York State?

    Yes! New York State offers programs to make insulation and air sealing more affordable for homeowners. The NY State Empower+ Program provides eligible residents with free energy audits and access to free or low-cost energy-efficient upgrades, including insulation and air sealing. Additionally, some local utilities in New York may offer rebates or incentives to help reduce the cost of these improvements.
