A well-insulated attic can improve your home’s comfort, reduce energy costs, and make it a healthier place to live. Insulation helps prevent heat loss in winter and keeps cool air in during summer, reducing your HVAC workload. It’s a cost-effective home improvement project that pays for itself in less than three years, with ongoing savings on your electricity bills.

You can choose from a variety of insulation materials, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. The type of insulation you choose will depend on the climate where you live and the level of R-Value you are aiming for.

Cut Your Energy Bills with Expert Attic Insulation by Energy Solutions

Spray foam insulation is a common choice and affordable. It works best for attics with standard joist spacing, few obstacles to work around and adequate headroom. This type of insulation can also be made from recycled content, making it an eco-friendly option.

Mineral wool or rock-based wool insulation is another good option. It is durable, providing superior thermal resistance and moisture protection. It’s also a sound-absorbing material, keeping out external noise and enhancing your living space. This type of insulation can contain asbestos, so it’s important to have it tested before installing or replacing it.

Loose-fill or blown-in insulation is more expensive than fiberglass batts, but offers better R-Value and a tighter air barrier. It’s made from a combination of fiberglass, mineral wool, and cellulose and installed with specialized equipment to ensure complete coverage. This type of insulation is moisture resistant, and closes up leaks and cracks to further enhance your attic’s air barrier. This type of insulation requires professional installation, and installers must wear protective gear due to the chemicals involved in handling it.
