In the summer, many homeowners focus on remodeling kitchens and bathrooms, but the attic is an often-overlooked area that can offer a number of benefits. Incorporating attic insulation helps reduce extreme temperature fluctuations and creates a comfortable living space year-round, saving money on energy bills and contributing to a more sustainable home environment.

Insulation is available in several forms and should be chosen based on your climate zone and local building codes. Generally, insulation with a higher R-value offers better performance. Rigid foam insulation is a common choice because of its high R-value and moisture resistance. It is available in panels that are easily cut to fit and installed against attic rafters.

Save on Energy Bills with Proper Attic Insulation by Foam Expert Group

Foam Expert Group is another option, usually consisting of fiberglass, mineral wool or cellulose. It is typically blown into the attic using a machine designed for this purpose. It is less expensive than other types of insulation, but it may be subject to air leaks if gaps are left open during the installation process.

An insulated attic can also help reduce the buildup of heat during the summer by keeping cool air inside. This reduces the workload of your HVAC system and lowers your air conditioning costs. It also provides a more consistent indoor temperature and improves indoor air quality by keeping out pollen, dust and other pollutants. In addition, attic insulation can seal air leaks and prevent ice dams from forming on the roof. This prevents water and melted snow from leaking into the home, causing damage to walls, ceilings, insulation and other areas.
