How to Keep Your Home Cooler in the Summer: Jim and Jan's RetroFoam of Michigan Review


A lot can change in a property after 40 years.
When Jim and Jan first moved into their Frankenmuth home, several large shade trees lined their driveway. These trees once protected the east side of their house from the hot Michigan summer sun.
But over the years, storms damaged the trees, and they were removed one by one. When the last tree was cut down, the kitchen area became unbearably hot and uncomfortable during the warmer months.
Rising Bills and a Rising Thermostat
On top of the discomfort, Jim and Jan noticed their energy usage was higher than many of their neighbors -- something clearly reflected on their Consumers Energy bill.
After seeing a RetroFoam of Michigan commercial and talking with a neighbor who had their home re-insulated, they decided it was time to take action.
RetroFoam of Michigan to the Rescue
RetroFoam of Michigan insulated the couple's exterior walls during the spring.
When temperatures climbed over 80 degrees and it was time to switch on the AC, Jim and Jan noticed a big difference.
"The comfort level was much better after RetroFoam," Jan explained.
Their home stayed noticeably cooler, and the air conditioner didn't have to run as often.
Lower Energy Bills and Extra Perks
Not only did they figure out how to keep their home cool in the summer, but they also earned a rebate through the Consumers Energy Window and Insulation program for installing energy-efficient foam insulation.
"We are very happy with our investment in RetroFoam," Jim said. "John, Anthony, and the entire crew was great to work with."
