What Is Attic Insultation?
Attic insulation refers to the material used to insulate the space between the ceiling of a home’s upper floor and the roof, which helps regulate indoor temperature. This layer of insulation plays a crucial role in maintaining energy efficiency by preventing heat from escaping during the winter and keeping the interior cool during the summer. By reducing the amount of heat transfer between the inside and outside of a house, attic insulation contributes to lower energy bills and enhanced comfort for occupants.
There are several types of attic insulation materials, including:
- Fiberglass batts
- Spray foam
- Cellulose
Fiberglass batts are pre-cut sections that fit between joists and are known for their thermal resistance and relatively low cost. Spray foam insulation expands upon application, creating a seamless barrier that offers excellent air sealing. Cellulose insulation, made from recycled paper products treated with fire retardants, is an eco-friendly option that can be blown into place to fill gaps and voids. Each type has its own advantages, and the choice of insulation depends on factors like budget, climate, and specific insulation needs of the home.
Benefits of Attic Insulation
If your attic does not have sufficient insulation, there are many benefits to adding more insulation. While many people think of insulation as protecting against cold, a well-insulated home offers benefits for keeping the house cool and comfortable in hot weather.
A well-insulated attic offers benefits that include:
- More even room temperatures
- Improved indoor comfort
- Less strain on your heating and cooling equipment
- Better indoor air quality
- Lower energy costs
- Preventing mold growth
Installing attic insulation may allow you to qualify for energy tax credits. Our heating and cooling specialists can assess your property and advise you of the tax credits that may be available for you.
Fiberglass Blown-In Insulation
Our technicians use the best quality products and application methods for effective Brazoria County, TX attic insulation. Fiberglass blown-in insulation is effective for thermal and acoustical insulation in residential and commercial applications. This type of insulation is designed for installation in attic areas and enclosed sidewall and floor or ceiling construction assemblies.
Fiberglass attic insulation is preferred for a number of reasons. The material is noncombustible, odor free, and noncorrosive. There are no formaldehyde, asbestos, or chemicals that cause mildew and fungus growth. In addition, the insulation does not attract vermin, absorb moisture, and won’t decay or rot. This type of insulation is easy to install, effective for insulating against heat and humidity, and cost effective.
Fiberglass blown in insulation is installed using a specialized blower machine. The technicians will blow the insulation across the attic floor and into cavities to fill the space to the desired level. This method is effective for installing insulation in any attic space and get insulation in spaces that may be missed with insulation batts, such as tight or odd shaped spaces. This method is also more cost effective and the installation process is faster.
