How Can You Tell If Your House is Missing Insulation?
You can’t see missing insulation with the naked eye, making it a frustrating problem to try and tackle. However, you are able to see areas of missing insulation with thermal imager. Common areas where you’re likely to find missing insulation include the space around outlets and switches; the edges of attics where the outside walls meet the roof; and unfinished garages, which if connected to the rest of the house can siphon huge amounts of heat during the winter. Insulation in wall cavities can also settle over time, causing gaps to appear.
