Carpeting is an enduring favorite floor covering among homeowners because it is warm, soft, and comfortable underfoot. It also provides cushioning on stairs and in a child's play area. Thus, it's not surprising that carpet is most often chosen for an installation in bedrooms and basements as well as on staircases. The most demanding brands can be found in living and family rooms, too. Floor & Wall Design in Lewisville, Texas, can satisfy all your carpet flooring needs.
The facts
Carpet, which acts as a blanket for your floor, comprises millions of individual fibers trapping cold air. Further, carpeting prevents convection air currents or drafts, so heat in the room cannot escape. In other words, carpet provides extra insulation and helps to retain heat in cold weather. Since it's estimated that up to 20-percent of energy losses come from poorly insulated floors, it makes financial sense to choose high-quality carpet flooring.
Padding
Padding, or underlayment, is a must-have when you install carpeting. Without it, your new flooring quickly becomes worn. In general, thick, dense padding is an excellent thermal insulator. However, each type of carpeting requires a specific type of padding. Therefore, it's best to note the manufacturer's recommendations. In short, consider both the padding and carpeting to attain maximum thermal insulation.
