When a home is poorly insulated, it loses heat in the winter and cool air in the summer, which drives up energy bills. But insulating an attic is a relatively inexpensive way to lower utility costs, increase indoor comfort, and reduce harmful emissions that damage the environment. The key to getting the most out of your attic insulation is working with a Building Performance Institute (BPI) contractor who specializes in insulation and can help you unlock rebates from your local utility company.

The attic insulation of you choose will depend on the climate where you live. For example, reflective insulation is effective in hot climates by reflecting radiant heat from the sun away from living spaces and decreasing cooling costs. Blanket insulation, also known as cellulose, fiberglass, or mineral wool, is another popular option. It is available in rolls or sheets and is a favorite for DIYers since it’s easy to install.

Loose-fill, or blown-in, insulation is made from small particles of fiberglass, mineral wool, or cellulose that are blown into the attic space with a special machine. This type of insulation is best suited for areas where there are gaps or holes and is more cost-effective than foam board.

Spray foam is a great choice for homes and buildings that need comprehensive insulation, air sealing, and moisture control. Patriot Foam & Coatings’ insulation is specially formulated to suit your project’s unique needs and can be sprayed throughout a structure, helping it achieve greater thermal efficiency and environmental sustainability.
