Many of you probably know the value of keeping your home or building well insulated. Sometimes though you might not even know why you are losing heat in some areas of your home. It can be a terribly frustrating problem to have and it could be due to thermal bridging. This happens when the insulation layer by a non-insulating material takes place in the separation between the interior and exterior of a building.

Interior insulation is used for preventing heat as well as cold from escaping or entering your home, rooms, and even keeping your pipes and appliances insulated. Heat loss of a building is prevented primarily by exterior insulation in the walls because they cover the most surface area of any building. This is important to home owners because proper insulation can lower energy costs and make the home more efficient.
