Insulation is one of the simplest and most cost effective ways to reduce energy costs, improve home comfort, and extend the life of your HVAC system. Proper insulation in the attic and eaves prevents warm air from escaping in the winter and hot air from entering during the summer, reducing your heating and cooling bills.

It is important to have the correct R-Value of insulation in your attic to achieve optimal energy efficiency. R-Value is a measure of thermal performance and can be found on the packaging of any insulation product. The Department of Energy recommends an R-Value between R30-R60 depending on your geographic area.

Benefits of Spray Foam for Attic Insulation

There are two types of attic insulation: blanket and loose-fill. Blanket insulation is composed of mineral wool, synthetic or natural fibers and comes in rolls or pre-cut panels known as batts. This type of insulation is inexpensive and easy to install in a new attic. Loose-fill or blown in insulation is composed of tiny particles of fiberglass, cellulose, and/or mineral wool that are blown through an attic vent into the space. This type of insulation is usually sprayed in through a hose attached to a blower and can be installed quickly.

Spray foam insulation has a higher initial cost than other types of insulation but can provide a more energy efficient and air tight seal in your attic. Professional installation of spray foam ensures that all building codes are adhered to and maximum R-Value is achieved, resulting in lower energy bills, improved home comfort, and improved Indoor Air Quality (IAQ). For new construction projects, spray foam insulation is much quicker to install than drywall and can eliminate the need for extra electrical wiring.
