You may of heard of a perfect atmosphere in theory, via a global initiative called the biosphere or the bubble project in the southwest in America, where an ecology of plants, air, water and humans is contained in a sphere for a year, to see if it can be successful.  This closed ecology was not successful, but it did offer some insight for our construction methods in modern day.  This balloon ecology is actually successful when applied with exits and windows, as a closed system of any kind is often too chaotic to predict all outcomes.  That is why, when you build any structure, getting in and out, is important with doors and windows, and good ventilation.  And, when you apply good insulation properties, the perfect atmosphere can be maintained with little change, as it is buffered from the kinetic changes of the outside atmosphere most effectively.

Insulation Creates a Tight Perfect Atmosphere

Insulation Creates the Perfect Atmosphere

Consider the science of keeping a room closely temperate, at 72 degrees Fahrenheit.  When you add a window or a door, the living condition improves, but the ability to maintain that temperature is lost a bit.  You can’t live in that room forever, so the window and the door are necessary.  How can you improve the room’s ability to stay structurally sound, and offer great temperature control?  Simply add more insulation to every other property, and add insulation to the windows and the doors as well.  This added buffer from the outer atmosphere, wind, heat, sun, cold, and moisture brings great value to keeping the temperature and creating perfect atmosphere indoors, without adding more heating or cooling properties.  Anytime you have to repeatedly heat or cool your home, you are spending energy, and spending money.  Why not buffer the other areas more effectively with better insulation?

The walls, ceiling and floors of that same room, can be thickened, tightened and insulation can be added.  Thickening your walls with wool bates was a very easy way to do this in the pioneer days in America.  And, when the bates were needed, you could spin that wool into yarn for clothing or utilitarian uses.  The many hay, wool, cotton, and mud homes of the pioneer days, heated their homes with a thick walled system, that only required minimal energy use to stay healthy and warm.  By adding this strength, you are building a pressure inside your home, and pushes away all forces outside, and thus keeps cool and warm requirements within the structure.

Perfect Atmosphere in Living From Igloos to Mud Homes

We have missed the boat with adding more energy efficient furnaces and air conditioning units, without added insulation to create our home’s perfect atmosphere.  When you are looking to improve the air within your home, you can’t do it with just a new tool, you need a new system as well.  This is what creates the perfect atmosphere, a buffer from the pressures on the outside, and a way for those chaotic changes outside to have minimal impact indoors.  When cold climate societies built igloos, they built them with available insulation, even if it is frozen water.  The insulation works wonderfully, as it is a great tight force, that creates a perfect atmosphere inside the frozen igloo.  And, similarly, during hot weather in the most arid heat, mud homes, dried with thick walls, creates a cool comfort that is healthy for a static indoors environment.

Build your Perfect Atmosphere with Insulation

As this analysis shows, you do not need a fancy tool like a high energy furnace or air conditioning unit to create your perfect atmosphere of 72 degrees Fahrenheit during the depths of winter or the heat of summer.  Your perfect atmosphere needs to be a force that is unaffected by the outer atmosphere, and created by good insulation and strength from the outer elements. Be sure to check the strength of your home by hiring an energy efficiency expert, and check the pressure variance in your home, compared to the outside.  It will show you that insulation will be a good value, as the pressure variance will decrease by adding strength with insulation.   Build your homes strength, and you will need less energy each day, and more comfort will be yours by the perfect atmosphere at home.
