Honest, Affordable Insulation for Del City Homes

Del City, Oklahoma is a community of roughly 22,000 residents located just southeast of downtown Oklahoma City and immediately west of Tinker Air Force Base. Like its neighbor Midwest City, Del City grew up around the military installation, with most of its housing built during the post-war boom of the 1950s and 1960s. That heritage gives Del City an abundance of affordable, well-built mid-century homes — but it also means the vast majority of those homes are operating with insulation that is 50 to 70 years old, or in many cases, with no wall insulation at all.

Bo's Insulation has been serving Del City homeowners for over eight years. The Bohannan brothers, Keyton and Nicholas, have a deep appreciation for the value-conscious mindset of Del City residents. Every dollar matters, and that is exactly why insulation upgrades make so much sense for this community. Nowhere else in the OKC metro do we see faster payback on insulation investments — Del City's older homes have so much room for improvement that the energy savings begin immediately and often pay for the project within a few years.

Why Del City Homes Need Insulation Upgrades

Del City's housing stock is predominantly from the 1950s and 1960s, an era when residential insulation standards were minimal at best. Understanding what is — and is not — inside the walls and attics of these homes is the first step toward making them comfortable and affordable to heat and cool:

  • Empty Wall Cavities — The majority of Del City's mid-century homes were built with frame walls containing little to no insulation. These hollow walls conduct heat directly between the outdoors and your living space. In summer, exterior walls radiate heat inward; in winter, they conduct warmth outward. Injection foam — where we drill small holes from the outside, fill the cavities with expanding foam, and patch the holes — is the single most transformative upgrade for these Del City homes. Homeowners regularly tell us they can feel the difference the same day we complete the work.
  • Thin or Missing Attic Insulation — Many Del City attics have only a few inches of deteriorated fiberglass — well below the R-38 recommended for the Oklahoma climate zone. Some attics have been disturbed by decades of HVAC work, electrical upgrades, and pest activity, leaving bare spots over living spaces. Blown-in cellulose or fiberglass fills every gap and brings the attic up to modern performance standards.
  • Air Leakage Throughout — Older Del City homes were not built with air sealing in mind. Gaps around plumbing stacks, electrical wiring, recessed lights, and ductwork penetrations create a chimney effect that pulls conditioned air out of the home year-round. Comprehensive air sealing is the essential complement to any insulation upgrade, and it is often the most cost-effective single step a Del City homeowner can take.
