Rate increase looming for the CT Home Energy Solutions program.
Stimulus funding is nearing depletion, meaning the HES co-pay for owners of oil and propane heated homes will increase from $75 to $300.
Green Star encourages homeowners who heat with oil or propane to book appointments now to avoid
the $225 co-pay increase. Insulation upgrade rebates are also expected to be eliminated. Note there are no HES income restrictions, so book your appointment today!

About Mineral Wool Insulation
Mineral wool insulation is a byproduct of volcanic activity. The combination of natural inorganic material with recycled content makes it a green building product. ROXUL® provides several types of stone fiber insulation for your home.
Roxul AFB (Acoustical Fire Batt)
Roxul AFB is a batt insulation product designed for use when fire resistance and acoustical performance are the key factors for consideration. This semi-rigid batt insulation is intended for interior wall and floor applications, specifically for commercial and industrial construction.
Sound control benefits
Non-combustible and light weight, Roxul AFB has excellent sound absorbing properties.
Fills voids
Roxul AFB is designed for a friction fit into wall partitions and system applications from plant and manufacturing walls to party walls. It is chemically inert and will not promote corrosion.
Makes buildings safer
 It will not hold or absorb water or moisture, making it mold, mildew and fungi resistant. With a melting point of approximately 2150 degrees F (1177 C), Roxul AFB is non-combustible and fire-resistant. It does not develop smoke or promote the spread of flames or the release of toxic gases. It is Greenguard certified for healthy indoor air quality.
A green building material
Roxul mineral wool products are made from natural and recycled materials using natural basalt rock and slag (a by-product of steel manufacturing). It is an excellent insulator, saving energy.

Roxul ComfortBatt®
This thermal insulation is intended for use in exterior walls, attics and crawlspaces. It provides top R-value ratings for thermal performance, meaning it helps keeps homes warm in the winter, cool in the summer and helps reduce the costs of heating and air conditioning. It also does not trap water or moisture and is completely resistant to mold, mildew and bacterial growth.
Roxul Safe’n’Sound™
This soundproofing insulation is intended for use in interior walls, ceiling and floors for superior sound attenuation. Since it is made of stone, it is fire-resistant and doesn’t burn. It can withstand temperatures hundreds of degrees higher than other conventional insulations. It will also not smoke or release toxic gases making it extremely effective in the event of a house fire. It works well for bedrooms, bathrooms, home offices and theater rooms and basement ceilings.
