Today, there are many residential homes (both old and new) that are being “retrofitted” with insulation. An insulation retrofit is simply an upgrade to ensure that “conditioned” air is kept within the home. In the winter, it means keeping warm air from escaping to the outdoors, and in the summer, it means keeping the cooled air from escaping. The insulation creates energy efficiency.
Homes built before 1979 typically have little or no wall insulation. In many homes, batt insulation can only provide incomplete insulation, which allows more heat to escape. The answer to incomplete wall insulation is the drill-and-fill process.
Every spare spot on a wall can be filled with a drill and insulation, which is not always possible using just batt insulation. Filling every bay with insulation ensures maximum insulation benefits. This allows the highest possible R-value for wall insulation. R-value measures how effectively insulation performs in various parts of the home. Drill and fill techniques can be used to re-insulate the walls and provide maximum R-value coverage in older homes that may already have old wall insulation.
