Building Science: Insulation

An exposed roofing system with insulation shown underneathWhen it comes to optimizing the thermal performance of a property, a comprehensive understanding of building science is key. From R-values to how materials interact with the structural integrity of the building as a whole, there are numerous factors to be considered when determining the insulation needs of a home or commercial space. The fundamentals of this science help to make essential decisions regarding insulation and how it integrates with the needs of each building, but modern technologies and best practices should also be taken into account. That’s what makes a BPI GoldStar certification—provided by the Building Performance Institute—a clear measure for a company’s ability to deliver reliable insulation services, and it’s one that Minneapolis Insulation is proud to have achieved.

The Importance of Hiring a Team That is BPI GoldStar Certified

A BPI GoldStar certified contractor follows the latest guidelines in technology and building science, ensuring that customers receive the best possible outcomes for the service they are provided. There are specific requirements that a company must make in order to gain a GoldStar certification, including having certain specialists on staff and complying with all designated insurance requirements. BPI GoldStar certified contractors like Minneapolis Insulation conduct whole-home energy audits to find problems with insulation and energy loss, prescribe the right solutions, and employ the recommended repairs with precision. Turning to us for insulation services can provide benefits like:

  • Ensuring all safety testing is completed
  • Finding problems that may have otherwise been overlooked, such as small gaps that lead to air leaks
  • Potential rebates from your utility provider, as these can only be provided to preferred contractors that are BPI certified

Choosing BPI GoldStar certified contractor Minneapolis Insulation for your residential or commercial insulation needs guarantees you get the best results for your investment.

“These guys did a great job adding insulation into our attic space. They showed up on time and were done in about an hour. They were so quiet and clean you wouldn’t have even known they were here except for the fact that our house is much cooler. Reasonably priced too. We would definitely go with them again if needed.”
