Insulation in Athens ga is an affordable home improvement that saves energy and makes a house more comfortable. It also helps reduce ice dams in winter and keeps the sun’s heat from transferring into uninsulated drywall and soffits below.

Your attic’s current insulation is typically made from fiberglass batts or blankets. It may have a R-value of R-30 or less, but the Department of Energy recommends a higher R-value for your climate.

If your attic has existing batting insulation, it’s possible to replace it with more or upgrade the R-value with a new layer of insulation. This can be a moderately challenging do-it-yourself project for many homeowners. But if you’re uncomfortable crawling around in your attic, don’t have the right equipment or want to avoid potential safety hazards, hire an experienced professional to install the new insulation.

Say Goodbye to Drafts with Professional Attic Insulation

The type of insulation and the R-value needed in your home depends on the climate where you live, your roof, and other factors. Check out this map to see the recommended level of attic insulation for your area.

If you’re building a new home, consider structural insulated panels (SIPs) or insulating concrete forms instead of traditional wood framing. These products have insulation built in and can be used with advanced wall framing techniques that reduce thermal bridging and maximize insulated walls’ R-values. Also, look for ENERGY STAR tax credits and rebates that may be available in your area to help offset the cost of upgrading insulation or air sealing your home.
