Insulation makes a huge difference in the energy efficiency of a home. It also impacts the health and comfort of occupants. A professional can help you choose the right insulation for your attic and ensure it’s installed correctly.
You’ll attic insulation a wide variety of insulation materials available, each with different properties and benefits. Fiberglass is a common choice. It comes in pre-cut panels that fit between joists in attic floors. It may require a special tool for installation. Some varieties contain recycled glass, which can help reduce environmental impact.
Cellulose and spray foam are other options. Both are made from organic materials, which are renewable and biodegradable. These types of insulation can provide high R-values, reducing energy consumption and lowering emissions. Both offer a lower embodied energy than fiberglass, and cellulose has the added benefit of being resistant to rot.
