Tips To Save Money With Attic Insulation
When working on a budget, many people focus on cutting expenses to save money. What they do not think about is where they can invest money in their home in order to save monthly. 90% of homes are under insulated, meaning that 90% of homes are not as energy efficient as they could be. Properly insulating your attic will not only make your home more comfortable, but it will save you money on monthly energy expenses.
Attics can heat up to 165 F during the summer, which means there needs to be an absolute boundary between the living spaces and the attic. Many homes have old, outdated, dirty attic insulation that is no longer doing it's job. Plus, if an attic is not air sealed (many are not), then there is going to be constant air exchange between the home and attic.
Our attic insulation services aim to insulate every nook and cranny of the attic. We start by air sealing with closed cell spray foam around any tiny opening between the ceiling and attic. These openings occur around wire holes, lighting fixtures, and anything that penetrates into the ceiling. We then will encapsulate the air ducts with Tight N' True duct encapsulation. This keeps the extreme attic temperatures from affecting the air in the ducts, and seals the conditioned air inside the ducts. We finish by covering the entire attic in TruSoft blown in cellulose insulation. Cellulose has a higher R-Value (insulation value) than fiberglass batts, and has a Class-1 fire safety rating.
We have many attic insulation services so that we can customize your attic to your liking. Our services include:
