Why insulation matters in Albany
In Albany, the average January low is -7°C (19°F), colder than 67% of the 123 cities we track. Sealing air leaks and topping up the attic usually pays back fastest here. Basement walls and rim joists are often the next biggest heat loss in older homes.
Most rebate programs pay only after an energy assessment, and some need one before the work too. Book it first.

- Ask for the R-value before and after for each area, and the material and depth they will install.
- Ask whether your rebate needs an energy assessment before and after the work, and who books it.
