Attic Insulation in Fort Payne
Air escapes through your attic when you turn on your furnace or AC unit, forcing you to pay for energy that you’re not using. This also forces your HVAC system to work harder, resulting in more frequent breakdowns and service calls.
Insulation creates a barrier that traps air inside and protects your family from extreme temperatures. When you insulate your attic, more air stays inside your house, increasing your system’s efficiency and lowering your energy bills. This also makes your home more environmentally friendly.
Likewise, insulation keeps dirt, pollen, allergens, and other particles out of your air. You’ll enjoy a higher indoor air quality (IAQ) that contributes to your family’s health and well-being. Other advantages include cleaner ductwork, reduced dust buildup, and reduced chances of mold growth.
Here are some reasons homeowners prefer insulated attics:
- Reduced air loss
- Longer HVAC lifespan
- Better air quality
- Consistent temperatures
- Less moisture
- Higher property value
Spray foam insulation is one of the most popular types. During installation, our team sprays foam in your attic walls. The foam hardens and creates a tight, long-lasting barrier. If your attic has small gaps that can’t accommodate solid insulation, spray foam seals the cracks.
Blown-in insulation is another common choice. We’ll use a blower to place loose material, such as fiberglass or cellulose, behind your attic walls. Like spray foam insulation, this method fills gaps. However, this method can be messy and requires a wall to hold the material in place.
Some homeowners prefer blanket insulation because it’s relatively cheap and easy to install. We’ll place thick panels of insulation in your attic to keep out the elements.
Foam board insulation offers superior protection, but it’s also pricier than other options. Our attic insulation company will measure and cut foam boards to fit your attic. Then we’ll install foam between the gaps. We can consult you so you understand your options and help you find a solution to suit your needs and budget requirements.
