How to Build Your House: No. 0

Insulation—A Must for Today's Homes

By PAUL T. HAAGEN

Noted Architect IT WAS NOT so long ago that the folks who were building houses first heard of insulation as ‘a modern method of building healthful comfort into a home.

Some of the older folks who had |

lived on the fard knew that by packing - sawdust between the. studs in the walls of an ice house and between the cakes the ice kept better. That was insulation and many of the modern insulation materials are the direct otitgrowth of the use of sawdust and wood pulp which had been Shemaleally Apeaten. 19. Aisconsage

) Yh the demand for greater comfort in the home, insulation came rapidly to the front as a needed principle in home construction until it has so grown in popularity that no one would think of building a new house without this principle incorporated into its structure. Insulation is not only a protec “tion against cold; it is also a protection against outside heat as well, It is a great fuel saver. Thus with its three-fold advantages it is classed as an essential in home construction. : » ” ” THE NATURAL laws that gov-

ern the flow of heat and cold |

through any material are similar to the laws that govern the flow of electricity along a conductor or the flow of water in a pipe. In order to insulate a building correctly, an insulation . barrier must be built into the outside walls, roofs and possibly base ment ceiling that will retard the passage of heat, or cold waves through these exposed portions of “ the house. » - Thus, heat from within is barred from passing outside and in summer the intense heat from outside cannot penetrate indoors. In the average home it has

been estimated that about 45 per ,

cent of the heat loss is through doors and windows. The balance of 55 per cent loss is through the walls and roof, with the greater percentage through the roof. » ” » THIS YOU can easily prove to yourself if you will notice the roofs of homes when covered with snow in the winter time. You will find that on the roof of a house where there is no insulation the snow melts very rapidly due to the heat coming through the roof from below. Where ' insulation is used, the snow does not melt. Likewise, on an uninsulated roof, if there is an overhang at the eaves you will notice that the snow does not melt on the overhang but will melt on that
