Affordable Attic Insulation Options
In addition to providing a cozier, safer home environment, insulating your attic helps reduce your energy consumption. That means you will be spending less on heating and cooling, which can translate into substantial annual savings for your household. And of course, reduced energy consumption also translates into less greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide being released into the air.
Strategic Spray Foam Insulation, LLC you choose to use fiberglass batt insulation or one of the other attic insulation options listed below, your initial investment will be quickly recouped through the ongoing energy savings you’ll enjoy for years to come. To estimate your monthly energy costs, start by determining the square footage of your attic space (or, if your attic is inaccessible, measure the area of your living room ceiling that has a direct line to your attic).

Rolled Fiberglass Insulation
Fiberglass is the most commonly used attic insulation in the US, with a high R-Value per inch and low price point. It’s especially effective in hot climate zones, where it will help keep cool air inside and heat out. Pros: Easy to install, pliable for filling gaps and irregular spaces, can be blown over existing insulation, good soundproofing, and provides good moisture resistance. Cons: Unlike other types of attic insulation, it can sag over time, which significantly diminishes its R-Value, and it’s unsafe to touch or breathe if it becomes damp.
