Why Is Attic Insulation Important?

Without proper attic insulation, warm air can easily escape from the conditioned interior of your home during the winter, causing high utility bills and discomfort. Insulation creates a barrier that reduces the amount of air transfer, significantly lowering your energy bills. Attic insulation also improves indoor air quality and is a deterrent for pests and unwanted guests.

When it comes to attic insulation, there are several different options available to homeowners. These include blanket insulation, blown-in insulation, spray foam, and panel insulation.

Blanket insulation consists of fiberglass batts or other materials, such as cellulose or mineral wool. These rolled-up sheets are fitted between attic rafters to slow the flow of heat and air.

The main issue with this type of attic insulation is that it can become saturated with moisture, which sabotages its effectiveness. In addition, it can be a magnet for raccoons and other critters.

For better attic insulation, consider a blown-in option such as cellulose or mineral wool. These are made of recycled materials, including paper, wood, and cardboard. They are a safer option for families with pets and young children. They can be installed using a blowing machine, making them an ideal attic insulation for hard-to-reach spaces.
