When it comes to home insulation, the attic should probably be the highest priority. And with the ever-increasing costs of home energy, upgrading attic insulation makes good economic sense.
For homeowners installing attic insulation in Mississauga, the focus may be on reducing energy usage and thus reducing energy costs. But there are many other benefits that are associated.
With blown in insulation, for example, homeowners enjoy much-improved home comfort, better-regulated indoor temperatures, and healthier levels of air quality – truly a win-win situation.
With attic insulation, performance is the key. In most homes, attic insulation does eventually deteriorate and therefore starts to underperform. It means that energy efficiency is lost and the heating and cooling system has to work harder. When attic insulation underperforms, the only remedy is to upgrade – with high-quality material, enhanced air sealing, and better ventilation.
With all insulation products, R-Value measures the thermal resistance provided by the product. In simple terms, the greater the product’s R-Value, the better the insulating effectiveness. With attic insulation, the purpose of the installed material is to resist heat flow – so with effective R-Values, heat flow is reduced in winter (keeping the home warm) and summer (keeping the home cool).
Attic insulation, especially blown in insulation, provides the thermal protection that’s required to keep a home well protected. Blown in cellulose effectively insulates the attic and roof cavity by enveloping all of the awkward spaces throughout. This will reduce air leakage, improve indoor air quality, and better control air moisture. Air sealing and air ventilation complete the “system”.
When installing attic insulation, the work has to be done right the first time. With a professional approach, old insulation material may require removal; repairs might be necessary; effective air sealing might be recommended, and improved air ventilation may also be required. All of these components contribute to a working “system” that delivers the best possible results long term.
