Attic Insulation
Why Put Insulation in the Attic?
Because heated air will rise to the highest point it can, the attic is a vital place for homeowners who struggle to keep the home cool to address. With proper insulation in place, the heat that currently moves freely into the attic will become trapped before it can enter. This is because the insulation creates pockets of air between itself and the interior surface it is pressed against. These air pockets make it harder for the heat to enter the home and preserve the cooled air that already exists inside the house. With the thermal seal insulation creates, homeowners can solve many issues.
Placing insulation in your attic may not seem like it will make a big enough impact to affect the whole home, but you may be surprised to find that it can. With insulation blocking the transfer of heated air on the top level of your home, your cooling system will be able to get the indoor temperature to a comfortable level more easily and maintain it without having to constantly be in operation. Any rooms in the home that are often too cold or hot should now be a pleasant temperature at any time of day, no matter how hot it is outside.
