Insulating your attic is a great way to make your home more energy efficient, save money and help reduce climate change emissions. It also helps prevent air leaks and improves comfort by maintaining a more consistent temperature from room to room.

Low levels of attic insulation and air leaks require your heating and cooling system to work harder, resulting in higher energy bills. High-quality attic insulation and proper air sealing can dramatically lower energy costs.

Spray foam insulation also helps to prevent moisture issues like ice dams and promotes the longevity of your roofing materials. In addition, a well-insulated attic can help to prevent the occurrence of mold and mildew in walls, ceilings and insulation.

Protect Your Roof and Reduce Costs with Attic Insulation from Spray Foam Architects

There are many different types of attic insulation, each with its own benefits and applications. Blown-in cellulose and fiberglass insulation are two common options. They both are made from recycled paper products that have been treated for fire resistance and are blown into attics using special equipment.

They are commonly installed in conjunction with a radiant barrier system, which reduces heat gain by reflecting it back to the sun. However, they are less effective in cold climates. They are also less effective for reducing sound transmission and can be more susceptible to rodent infestation. When installing these types of insulation, it is important that the professionals wear proper personal protective equipment to avoid contamination with asbestos or other hazardous materials. This is not something that most homeowners are prepared or equipped to do on their own.
