Attic Insulation

Does it ever feel like heat (and money) fly right out of your house in the winter? If your attic isn’t well insulated, they do! Attics are responsible for 25-30% of the heat loss that happens in your home. Without proper insulation and air sealing, heat from your living spaces will rise up into your attic and out of your house. This same principle holds true in the summer, but in reverse. Without enough of a barrier between your living space and outdoor temperatures, sweltering heat finds its way into your home, making your A/C work harder, and you uncomfortable.

The good news is that attic insulation is the low-hanging fruit of home energy efficiency upgrades. When combined with air sealing, attic insulation costs can pay for themselves in just a couple of short years.

The Power of Blown-in Cellulose Insulation for Attics

There are several types of insulation for attics, but we’re all about blown-in cellulose at Sustainergy. The Energy Control Cellulose that we install is an incredible insulator that can also stop air infiltration. It’s comprised almost entirely of recycled newspaper and treated with borate; a non-toxic Class A fire retardant and pest repellant. It does not grow mold, performs as a great sound attenuator, and is the perfect cost-effective insulation material to make your home more comfortable and save you money!

The benefits of cellulose attic insulation include:

Better comfort all year round
Solves problems like cold bedrooms or a hot upstairs
Lower energy bills
Affordable
Non-toxic, fire-safe material
Eco-friendly insulation

Of course, every attic is different. Although cellulose is typically the best type of insulation for homes in the Cincinnati metropolitan area, we will always consider your home’s design and your specific needs and preferences before making a recommendation. We can install any type of insulation, including fiberglass and spray foam.
