Attic Insulation

What Is Attic Insulation?

Attic insulation prevents air from escaping the home and blocks outside air from entering. Insulating an attic also reduces heat transfer from the exterior elements into the interior of the home. 

 

A homeowner saves up to 50% on energy bills each year by thoroughly insulating and air sealing an attic. Whether an attic was damaged by weather, pests, mold, or age – our highly skilled technicians restore attics to their optimal structural condition. 

 

Why Should I Insulate My Attic?

Attic insulation prevents heat transfer and restricts airflow, keeping a home cool in summer and warm in winter. Insulation protects the environment by reducing the use of natural resources to heat or cool a building.

 

Insulating an attic prevents air leakage by settling into gaps and cracks, blocking air from entering or exiting the home. Properly insulating a building also blocks out pests, pollutants, dirt and mold which promotes better health.

 

In homes lacking proper insulation, some rooms may be colder or hotter than others. Once the building is adequately insulated, a steady temperature is established throughout the structure which creates comfort. A constant stable temperature prevents freezing pipes and deters ice dams from forming on the eaves of a roof. Ice dams can create structural damages, wood rot, mildew, mold and water leakage. Moisture damages and condensation are prevented through attic insulation and extend the lifespan of a roof. 

 

Insulating an attic can is also a way to create a new living space in the home. A once unusable room can be transformed into a comfortable office, bedroom, playroom or storage. Adding a new room increases property value and makes a home more attractive to potential home buyers.

 

Finally, attic insulation prevents outside noises from being heard within the home such as rain falling on the roof, storms and wind. For further information on noise reduction, please visit our page on sound deadening.
