Insulation contractor is one of the most cost-effective improvements you can make to your home. It helps reduce air leaks that waste energy and create discomfort, and it works to keep your rooms at a comfortable temperature year round.

In fact, many ENERGY STAR Home Upgrade customers report reduced energy bills after installing insulation! Insulating your attic is also a good way to protect against cold weather damage and maintain a safe indoor environment.

Top Benefits of Attic Insulation for Your Home – Distinctive Spray Foam

A well-insulated attic prevents hot air from escaping your house in winter and cool air from leaking in summer, and it reduces the amount of energy needed to regulate your home’s temperature. Depending on the type of insulation you choose, an appropriately insulated attic could save up to 40 percent on energy costs annually!

Selecting the Right Insulation

There are four main types of insulation: fiberglass batts, cellulose, mineral wool and spray foam. Each provides different benefits and comes in a range of R-values to suit your household’s needs.

Fiberglass insulation is a common option, consisting of tiny glass fibers that trap air to create an insulating barrier. It’s available in batts and rolls that fit between joists or wall studs. It’s relatively inexpensive and fire-resistant, but it can settle over time and is not as effective in reducing sound.

Cellulose blown-in insulation is made from recycled paper products and treated with a fire retardant. It can be installed with a blowing machine, which spreads the material evenly. It offers an excellent R-value and helps to reduce noise, but it can also absorb moisture over time, leading to mold and mildew.
