Attic Insulation FAQs
We get many questions about attic insulation and how it can help boost household efficiency. Below, we’ll answer some of these key questions for your utmost convenience.
How much energy can attic insulation save?
How much energy you’ll save by adding attic insulation to your home will depend on numerous factors. These include the R-value of the insulation you buy, how tightly sealed your home is, the type of HVAC system you have, and so forth. In general, those with a poorly insulated existing attic could save between 20% and 50% on their annual heating and cooling bills.
What type of insulation is best for my home?
We offer many types of energy-efficient insulation to ensure you can find the best match to meet your budget and household needs. In general, fiberglass insulation is an optimal choice for newer homes with standard joist sizes and tight air sealing. Cellulose is an ideal choice for older homes with lots of drafts, as it offers a denser construct and is a more eco-friendly option.
