Types of Attic Insulation for Your Home

Published on July 30, 2016

You understand that attic insulation is vital for trapping cool air in your home during the hotter months and warm air in your home during the winter. If you’re a regular blog visitor you may also be aware that there are government and energy refunds available if you upgrade or put in the recommended attic insulation. You may even understand that the ideal amount of attic insulation can help decrease your monthly heating and cooling bills. But are you sure what type of attic insulation may be right for your home?

Below are the three major styles of attic insulation:

 

  • Roll-On Insulation

 

This is commonly the least expensive type of attic insulation because it is rather straightforward and quick for expert contractors to install. It is highly flexible, allowing it to fit tightly between studs, rafters, etc. and the secure fit helps trap the air inside.

 

  • Blown-In insulation

 

This kind of attic insulation is usually more efficient because the loose-fill allows the insulation to occupy smaller nooks and crannies where air could potentially leak out. Blown-in attic insulation is also moisture resistant, which helps avoid mold and odor from collecting in your attic.

 

  • Spray Foam Insulation

 

Spray foam insulation is the most energy-efficient type of attic insulation because it expands and securely seals all gaps where air could likely leak though. Not only does the spray foam attic insulation create an air-tight seal, but it generally works longer than other style of attic insulation.

 

Before making a final choice, consider the R-value you require. The R-value is the assessment of insulating capability. The greater the R-value, the greater the insulating power. For instance, spray foam has a larger R-value than traditional insulations, delivering better insulating power.

To understand more about how much insulation you need for your home, or to set-up a complimentary in-home consultation, call Bryant Heating & Cooling Service Experts at 226-773-3357 today!
