Reduced Energy Bills

Insulating your attic lowers the cost of cooling and heating your house. This is because heat travels. It moves out of your home in the winter and flows into your home in the summer. Proper attic insulation reduces this airflow so you don’t use as much energy to heat and cool your home.

Controls Air Leakage

Insulating your attic limits air leakage into your house. It’s estimated that 40 percent of home heating cost is from air leaking through your ceilings, floors and walls. So, if you limit the air leaks in your house, you can reduce your utility costs.

Keeps Room Temperatures Stable

If your home isn’t insulated or is under-insulated, it can cause fluctuations in the temperature of your rooms. Your upstairs rooms could be hotter than downstairs, or you might notice different temperatures in all your rooms. Therefore insulating an attic is so important for keeping your home comfortable.

Better Air Quality

Pollutants enter from outside your home, such as dirt, radon, smoke and mold. Installing insulation in your attic, it helps prevent the health effects of air pollutants. Some symptoms of air pollutants include headaches, respiratory problems and fatigue.

Increases Home Value

Upgrading or installing attic, high R-value insulation adds value to your home. Even though it’s not visible to home buyers, new attic insulation is a strong selling point. It reduces energy costs, protects the roof and keeps your home comfortable and inviting.
