What is the benefit of attic insulation?

Save on energy costs and maintain a comfort level in your home as well as improve the energy efficiency of your home.

How can attic insulation reduce my energy bills?

When your attic is properly insulated your home uses less energy, therefore using less kilowatt hours on your heating and air conditioning unit which extends the life of the unit. Proper levels of insulation can reduce your energy consumption as much as 30%.

Do I have attic insulation already?

Yes, but most likely not enough. The Department of Energy estimates as many as 8 out of 10 homes in our area may be under insulated and recommends a minimum of 12 inches of insulation in your attic.

How does attic insulation work?

Heat flows from hot to cold. Insulation resists the flow of heat preventing unwanted circulation. In cold weather, it flows from unheated rooms to an unheated attic. To maintain comfort, the heat lost in winter must be supplemented by your heating system, and the heat gained in summer must be removed by your a/c unit.

What type of attic insulation do you offer?

We use Owens Corning loose fill fiberglass insulation exclusively. Owens Corning is a household name and the leader in fiberglass products and insulation.
