Believe it or not, it’s usually a whole lot of fun to work in the heating and cooling industry. Just imagine getting to help folks save all kinds of money on their heating and cooling bills. One of my favorite ways to do this is by teaching Sacramento homeowners about all of the new types of insulation that can help seal the air in their homes so that their HVAC systems are more efficient. As you probably know by now, more efficient HVAC performance leads to drastically lower utility bills.
Now, I generally prefer to talk to folks about this in person because I love to see how people react when I start to give them estimates on their potential monthly savings. But today, I’m going to deviate a bit and just go ahead and do it right here on the website. I’ll be talking about how experienced professional HVAC service companies like Bell Brothers can give you the valuable info on spray foam insulation in Sacramento homes that you need to save you all kinds of money. I’ll also go into some of the great energy efficiency financing programs that can help you cover your upgrade costs with no money down.
Get ready for lower heating and cooling bills each and every month.
What Is Spray Foam Insulation?
To understand the benefits of spray foam insulation in Sacramento homes (and how it can save you money), let’s start by making sure we all understand exactly what spray foam insulation is and how it works. Spray foam insulation, also known as spray polyurethane foam (SPF), is a great alternative to more traditional types of insulation, like fiberglass. It’s more pliable, which makes it a great choice for sealing awkward cracks and gaps.
The value of spray foam, though, is that it not only resists heat transfer well, it also helps seal in hard-to-reach areas, which reduces leakage through cracks, joints, and seams.
Here at Bell Brothers, we’ve spent many years working in all different types of Sacramento homes, from the newer models around town to some of the older classic homes on the grid. Most (if not all) of these houses have had fiberglass insulation installed in their walls and attics at some point. The value of spray foam, though, is that it not only resists heat transfer well, it also helps seal in hard-to-reach areas, which reduces leakage through cracks, joints, and seams.
Bell Brothers offers insulation estimates and energy efficiency upgrade suggestions for Sacramento homeowners, as well as insulation project evaluations.

How Spray Foam Insulation Saves Sacramento Homeowners Money
Now let’s get to the good stuff: how spray foam insulation in your Sacramento home can help save you money on your monthly SMUD utility costs. I’ve talked about how important attic insulation is in the past, but I think it bears repeating. It really is that important, especially for homes in Sacramento.
If you’ve ever had to go into your attic during summer, you know how hot it gets up there. Simply put, when attics aren’t insulated, heat from our hot and dry Sacramento summer gets inside quickly and effortlessly, creating a giant oven on top of your house. The hot air from the attic then makes its way into the rest of your home, raising the temperature. Likewise, in the winter, the cold air from the attic acts as a freezer for all the toasty warm conditioned air your paying beaucoup bucks for to escape to.
Attics almost always have unsealed areas around cracks, joints, and seams, partially because the traditional type of insulation we’ve used for years—like fiberglass—just wasn’t built to seal those areas.

Bell Brothers can help you use spray foam to seal those gaps, keep the hot air out, and cool down your entire house. When your house is cooler, you won’t need to run your AC as much, and, as a result, your utility bills will drop.
The Best Financing Options to Install Spray Foam Insulation into Your Sac Home
Now that you know why investing in spray foam insulation is such a good move, it’s time for the next logical topic: the cost. I’ve talked about this in the past too, but here in Northern California, we’re lucky to have access to a number of great energy efficiency home upgrade financing programs. These programs make it so much easier to afford the investments that, over time, will pay for themselves by lowering your utility costs—investments like spray foam insulation.
