Home Attic Insulation: Best Home Investment Strategy

Upgrading your attic’s insulation will improve your home energy efficiency more than you likely realize. New home attic insulation will reduce your utility bills by as much as 20% while keeping your living space more comfortable. Improved insulation will lessen moisture problems, insect infestation and other element infiltration. It is time to give attention to the spot that is commonly ignored and where you store things knowing it offers a huge benefit in the comfort of your home.

Every attic suffers heat loss. Heat loss means you are paying more to heat your home. Insulating the attic wall is the best and safest choice. The top recommended choices for the material types for insulating your basement walls are:

1. Blanket (batt and roll) insulation: This is made of different materials like fiberglass, plastic or natural fibers. It is normally fitted between studs, joists and beams. It is cheaper compared to other insulation types.
2. Spray Foam insulation: This insulation is made of polyurethane. It has a high insulating value based on its thickness.
3. Loose-fill insulation: This consists of cellulose, fiberglass or mineral, and useful for adding insulation to finished areas specifically areas that are irregular in shape or that have barriers such as beams.

A home energy audit will check the efficiency of your home’s insulation and recommend whether or not new augmentation is required. If your home is ten years or older and has never had an insulation assessment, now is the time. You are likely throwing away significant amounts of money in lost energy expense
