As a homeowner, attic insulation is one of the most profitable decisions you will make from a return on investment (ROI) basis. Specifically, energy bills (heating and cooling your home) average somewhere in the range of 50-70% for a typical home. Losing the heating and cooling that you are paying for due to poor attic insulation is just a waste of money. Yet with the proper attic insulation, you can reduce the loss of your heating and cooling, and also stop warm outside air from entering your home. For those who are energy conscience an ideal “go green” solution that conserves energy and protects the environment. If you’re looking for attic insulation companies, think NuHome.
HOW ATTIC INSULATION WORKS
Basically, temperature changes within your home happen naturally when in the winter heat escapes the living areas of a home to cooler spaces such as attics, basements, and attached garages. During the summer, the outside heat will make its way indoors to your home’s interior. Your home’s heating and cooling system work to maintain a consistent temperature based on your thermostat settings.
R-VALUE
Attic insulation works to combat this natural occurrence by limiting air movement and is an effective insulator. Insulation is rated by thermal resistance known as R-Value. The greater the R-Value the greater the insulating value. R-value requirements vary by region with colder climates requiring thicker insulation levels.
