An energy-efficient
home is important for several reasons. First, energy-efficient
home costs less to heat and cool, which means you pay less with
every energy bill. Next, a well insulated home
is more comfortable year round for you and your family. Third,
an energy-efficient home is more environmentally sound because fewer
of the world’s resources will be used for heating and cooling.
And, last, an energy-efficient home has greater resale value.

Johns Manville Formaldehyde-free Fiber Glass Building Insulation
In March 2002, Johns Manville became the first and only fiber glass insulation manufacturer to stop adding formaldehyde to building insulation as a binder and began using an acrylic resin that eliminates all binder-related emissions of formaldehyde during manufacturing. This means that the EPA regulation written to control the hazardous pollutants present in the manufacture of ordinary insulation - formaldehyde, phenol and methanol - simply do not apply to the JM plant. The acrylic binder also reduces concerns about formaldehyde in the indoor environment once installed. In addition, Johns Manville Formaldehyde-free insulation utilizes a minimum 25 percent recycled content (North American average) and provides overall resource efficiency.
