Attic spaces are usually hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Without proper attic insulation, you could be wasting money and energy.

Where to Install Attic Insulation
In an unfinished attic, insulation should be placed over the floor joists. Consideration should also be given to insulating the rafters. Attic doors can also be insulated to protect air flow through the door itself. In finished attic spaces, insulation should be placed between the studs of knee walls, along exterior walls and the roof, and in ceilings.

Attic Insulation and R-Values
An R-value is the measure of an insulation’s ability to resist heat flow. Higher R-values indicate better insulation performance. Older homes often have less than the recommended level of insulation in the attic. Proper attic insulation at the recommended R-value for your climate zone can help reduce heat loss. Contact TruTeam for an evaluation of your attic’s current insulation levels.

Benefits of Attic Insulation
The attic is one of the most common areas of a home that is lacking in sufficient insulation. TruTeam can help install attic insulation.
Improve Energy Efficiency
Your attic typically provides the greatest opportunity to improve the energy efficiency of your home. Insulation can help reduce heat loss through the attic. As much as 20% of your energy bill can be saved with good roof insulation. TruTeam can work with you to recommend the right type and amount of insulation to increase the energy efficiency of your home.
Increase Resale Value
In addition to improving your home’s energy efficiency, up-to-date attic insulation also adds resale value to your home. According to a 2016 report from Remodeling Magazine, installing attic fiberglass can recuperate 116.9% of the cost. A fiberglass insulation upgrade is the only project that had a national return of over 100%.
Retrofit Existing Attics
Many homes were built with lower standards of attic insulation. Luckily, it’s an easy fix to retrofit existing attics and add insulation. TruTeam’s insulation experts can evaluate your existing levels of attic insulation and make recommendations on ways to improve your energy efficiency. We can calculate your attic’s current R-value and suggest products that can increase the R-value if necessary.
