A homeowner from Monroe, NJ looking to make their home more energy-efficient and comfortable year-round turned their attention to the basement and crawlspace, where poor insulation was leading to drafts and high energy bills. To tackle the issue, they chose to install SilverGlo, a high-performance insulation solution.
SilverGlo panels, made with graphite-infused expanded polystyrene, were installed along the walls to create a continuous thermal barrier. Unlike traditional fiberglass insulation, SilverGlo won’t absorb moisture, sag, or lose its insulating power over time. The result was a noticeably warmer, more efficient living space and lower heating and cooling costs. With SilverGlo, the homeowner gained comfort, savings, and lasting protection against the elements.
