Real Success Stories: New York Homeowners Saving Thousands
Understanding what impacts your potential energy savings allows for realistic expectations and better planning. Several key factors determine your specific ROI:

- Current Insulation Level: Homes with minimal existing coverage experience more dramatic improvements
- Home Size: Larger homes see greater absolute dollar savings
- Climate Zone: Upstate New York’s colder temperatures generate higher heating-related savings
A professional home energy audit offers the most precise assessment by analyzing all contributing factors. According to NYSERDA’s EmPower program, attic insulation typically delivers 15-30% energy savings for qualifying homes.
