California’s Title 24 establishes energy efficiency guidelines for new construction, including specific insulation standards to reduce energy waste and improve indoor comfort. Oakland homes must meet minimum R-values, which measure insulation performance. The guide explains these requirements, ensuring homeowners know what is needed for proper thermal protection.

“Oakland’s building codes are in place to help homeowners improve efficiency and lower long-term costs. Our guide simplifies these regulations and gives readers practical insights on the best insulation options available,” a spokesperson for the company said.

As explained by Energy Star, properly installed insulation and air sealing can help homeowners save up to 15% on heating and cooling costs. Additionally, effective insulation can also reduce noise, improve air quality, and provide better humidity control. Despite these benefits, 9 out of 10 American homes are currently under-insulated.

The guide also details approved insulation materials, including fiberglass batts, spray foam, blown-in cellulose, and rigid foam panels. Choosing the right insulation can have a big impact on a home’s energy performance, reducing heating and cooling expenses while increasing indoor comfort.

‘USA Spray Me’ provides professional insulation services that align with Oakland’s building requirements. The company offers expert installation to ensure insulation meets the necessary standards while delivering long-term benefits.

A customer shared their review: “After having contacted five different contractors, we decided to go with USA Spray Me, and we’re extremely happy we did. Knowing very little about the insulation, Alex has explained everything in detail, completed the work even sooner than promised and charged way less than the lowest bid we got.”
