Adding attic insulation is one of the most cost-effective and highest return home improvement projects you can do this summer. Not only will it keep your home cooler and more comfortable, but it can also significantly reduce your energy bills month after month.
316 Insulation of Olympia is rated by R-value, which is a measure of the material’s ability to resist heat flow. The higher the R-Value, the better the insulation. You can choose from fiberglass batts, fiberglass rolls, cellulose fiber, and spray foam. Fiberglass batts and rolls are the most common types of attic insulation. They are flexible and can be cut to fit into uneven spaces, and they can be purchased with flame-resistant chemicals for areas where wires or pipes run through.
The Role of Attic Insulation in Maintaining Indoor Comfort
Another benefit of attic insulation is that it helps to dampen sound, which can be an issue in homes near busy roads or highways. It can also be helpful for homeowners with children who are sleepless and prone to loud crying and waking.
An insulated attic also reduces humidity, which can damage your home’s structural integrity and lead to mold growth. In Georgia, where moisture levels are high, this is especially important. Insulation creates a barrier that prevents moisture from transferring to your living space, and it can improve indoor air quality by reducing mold and mildew growth. It can even reduce the risk of pest infestations by blocking access to attic spaces. In addition, a properly insulated attic will lower your heating and cooling costs, contributing to reduced energy consumption and making a small contribution to climate change.
