Allergic reactions can be triggered by various external elements. Many of these allergens can enter your home without proper insulation. This post explains how residential insulation is not only allergy-friendly but also proactively protects your home from external pollutants.
How Does Insulation Help Prevent Allergic Reactions?
Reduced Allergen Infiltration
Well-insulated homes experience less infiltration of outdoor allergens such as pollen and dust.
Mold Prevention
Many forms of insulation are water-resistant, helping to prevent mold growth, a common allergen trigger for respiratory issues.
Insulation is an important part of your building envelope system, and all parts of that system must work together to keep moisture from causing damage to the structure or being health hazards to the occupants. For example, mold and mildew grow in moist areas, causing allergic reactions and damaging buildings.
Improved Indoor Air Quality
Insulation contributes to better indoor air quality, minimizing the entry of allergens and pollutants.
Hypoallergenic Insulation Solutions
Many insulation materials are inherently hypoallergenic and less likely to trigger allergic reactions. At Radiant, our insulation solutions are specifically tailored to homeowners and the unique characteristics of their homes.
