Attic Blown in Insulation is one of the best ways to lower your home energy bills, make your living space more comfortable, and improve indoor air quality. It also helps keep cold air out during the winter and hot air out during the summer.

There are four types of attic insulation: batts and blankets, fiberglass, cellulose, and spray foam. Fiberglass batts are the most common type of insulation. They come precut to fit typical attic rafters and joists. They may also have an air and vapor barrier on one side to prevent condensation and make fastening easier.

Blown-in cellulose is another popular option. It’s made from recycled paper, cardboard, and wood-based products. It’s blown into spaces using a special machine. This method ensures an even distribution and makes it harder for rodents like mice, squirrels, and raccoons to get in. The downside is that this type of insulation has a higher price tag than other attic insulation materials.

Foam Expert Group’s Approach to High-Performance Attic Insulation

Rigid foam is a type of attic insulation that comes in panels or boards made from polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, or polyurethane. It has an R-value of 3. Rigid foam is durable and moisture resistant, and it can be installed with a vapor barrier over existing attic insulation. It’s also a good choice for cold climates because it reduces heat gain and saves on heating costs.

Spray foam is a more advanced form of attic insulation. It’s applied in a liquid formula that expands to fill tight gaps and crevices. It’s also odorless and fireproof, and it doesn’t contain any allergens. It’s an excellent choice for homes that have problems with pests and moisture. When it’s installed correctly by a licensed professional, spray foam attic insulation can be as effective as other types of attic insulation.
