If you’ve been asking yourself, “Why is my house so cold?”, you’re not alone. Many Ontario homeowners face this problem at the start of fall and this feeling leads into winter. No matter how high the thermostat goes, the cold just seems to creep in. The issue often isn’t your furnace, it's your insulation.

Ontario Winters Demand Quality Insulation
Here in Ontario, we know how brutal the winters can be long months of freezing temperatures, heavy snow, and icy winds. To keep your home comfortable, your insulation needs to be top-notch and built for your home’s specific needs.
Over time, insulation can settle, compress, or simply become outdated. Older homes in particular often don’t have enough insulation to meet today’s energy efficiency standards. That means more cold air sneaks in and more of your heat escapes.
Signs You Need an Insulation Upgrade
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to call the experts:
Cold walls, floors, or ceilings even with the heat on
Drafts around windows, doors, or attics
Higher heating bills than usual
Uneven temperatures from room to room
These are all clear indicators your home’s insulation isn’t doing its job.
The Benefits of Upgrading Your Insulation
Upgrading your insulation offers more than just warmth it’s an investment in your comfort and your home’s efficiency:
Stay warm and cozy: Keep the heat inside where it belongs.
