Owens Corning home page  Insulating system.


Your Insulating System has a lot to contend with. Heat, for one thing. It has a natural tendency to flow out of your house when the weather's cold. And into your house when it's hot outside.

And there's moisture. Showers, cooking, washing and drying clothes can put 35-40 pounds of potentially damaging moisture into your home each day.

Then leaks and drafts can cause up to 40% of a home's heat loss so let's not forget air infiltration. Or the heating/cooling lost through your metal duct system as your furnace or air conditioner labors to keep you comfortable.

Your Insulating System certainly has a big job to do. But Owens Corning is up to the task with everything to keep you comfortable and your home operating at maximum efficiency.
