insulation definition and meaning

What is "insulation"?

Insulation is a material used to reduce the transfer of heat, sound, or electricity, helping to maintain a comfortable temperature and improve energy efficiency in buildings. It is commonly made from materials like fiberglass, foam, or recycled paper and is used in walls, attics, floors, and ceilings. Insulation helps keep buildings warm in the winter and cool in the summer by preventing heat from escaping or entering. It also helps reduce noise and can make a building more energy-efficient, reducing heating and cooling costs.

What is "insulation"?

Insulation is the process of placing materials within walls, ceilings, and floors to reduce the transfer of heat, sound, or electricity. This act helps maintain comfortable indoor temperatures by preventing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, leading to energy efficiency in buildings. Insulation materials can include fiberglass, foam, cellulose, or reflective barriers, each chosen based on the specific needs of the structure. Proper insulation also contributes to noise reduction, making spaces quieter, and can help protect against moisture and condensation. Overall, insulation is essential for improving comfort and lowering energy costs in homes and buildings.
