Many homeowners think of insulation as a way to keep warm air inside their home during the winter and cool air out, but the benefits of attic insulation go beyond that. Properly insulated attics help limit the flow of air through the house and can save homeowners up to 15 percent on energy costs each year, according to writer Amanda Ringler. It also reduces the strain on heating and cooling systems, making them last longer.

However, many homeowners are hesitant to invest in attic insulation due to the upfront cost. The Foam Depot Insulation Company can help with a wide variety of options that can fit your budget and lifestyle. In addition, depending on where you live, your local government may offer weatherization assistance that can cover the cost of air sealing and insulating. URL https://foamdepotinsulation.com/

Rigid foam insulation comes in panels or boards made of polystyrene, polyisocyanurate and/or polyurethane that are cut to size and installed against the attic’s structural components. It’s a green option with low embodied energy, resists moisture absorption and has good acoustic properties. It can be difficult to install and requires adequate headroom and joist space.

Fiberglass batt insulation is common and relatively affordable. It is a recycled product and has an excellent R-value per inch. However, it does not do well in moist climates and can take a long time to dry out when wet. Also, it can emit harmful gases when wet and should be handled with gloves and a mask.
