More and more homeowners today are looking for ways to make their home more energy efficient to lower their energy bills. The government allows some tax credits for energy efficient products that you purchase for your home, which is an added benefit to saving on your energy costs. A well-insulated attic will reduce the amount of warm air getting out though your roof, reducing cold air that can seep into your home, making you and your family much more comfortable during the winter months. Attics can be one of the easier places to insulate in your home without major construction or cost. If you have an older home, you’ll want to educate yourself on the type of insulation you have. If you have vermiculite insulation, don’t attempt to remove it by yourself as it may contain asbestos.
Insulation levels are specified by R-Value. R-Value is a measure of insulation's ability to resist heat flow. The higher the R-Value, the better the thermal performance of the insulation. The most common type of insulation is fiberglass insulation. We also can seal exposed areas with closed-cell foam insulation.
Adding attic insulation to an older or newer home can pay for itself in a matter of years by lowering your energy costs. At Integrity, our qualified and certified insulation experts can come to your home and inspect your attic for free, and give you an assessment on what your options are for insulating your attic.
