Attic Insulation – Save on Energy Costs and Create a More Comfortable Living Space

Whether you’re building new or remodeling, your home will benefit from attic insulation. Georgia Insulation can help you get the attic insulation your home needs to save on energy costs and create a more comfortable living space.

Attic insulation keeps conditioned air inside your home, eliminating hot rooms in the summer and cold ones in the winter. It also helps prevent duct leaks and improves the overall performance of your heating and cooling system.

There are several different attic insulation options, including fiberglass batts and loose-fill insulation and spray foam. Fiberglass batts are recognizable as those pink and yellow panels you see in walls, while loose-fill insulation is made of bags of cellulose or fiberglass that are blown into place with a special machine designed for this purpose. Spray foam is a wet spray that dries into an expanded form, filling and sealing gaps, cracks, and crevices.

Georgia Insulation’s Expert Tips for Attic Insulation That Lasts

The type of attic insulation you choose depends on your climate zone. In general, you should aim for a R-value of at least R-30 (or about 10 to 11 inches) in most of the country, but the higher the R-value, the better.

It’s also important to have your attic inspected and air sealed before adding or upgrading insulation. Many homeowners fail to do this step, which can lead to poor performance and moisture problems.
