Insulation doesn’t get much more central to home comfort than the attic. Insulating your attic helps to keep hot air out during the summer and cold air out in the winter, making it easier for your HVAC system to maintain a comfortable temperature throughout your home. Adding insulation to your attic is an excellent way to lower energy bills while protecting your investment.

While many homeowners assume that their attics are insulated, this is not always the case. Whether or not the attic has insulation is often dependent on where you live and your home’s age. You should also factor in any roof or other home repairs you may have to make before determining if you need to add more attic insulation.

What Makes NextGen Spray Foam Insulation the Attic Insulation Experts

Spray foam insulation is the most commonly used form of attic insulation. It is available in varying R-values and comes in pre-cut panels that are installed between joists or rafters. This type of attic insulation is typically cheaper than other options, but it is less effective in reducing noise and can absorb moisture, which can lead to mold and mildew. It is also harmful if it comes into contact with your skin or is inhaled, which is why it’s important to wear protective gear when installing fiberglass.

Blown-in attic insulation is more expensive than fiberglass batt insulation, but it offers greater efficiency due to its higher R-value per inch. It is made from particles of either cellulose or recycled paper and installed using a blowing machine to fill gaps and cover surfaces evenly. This type of attic insulation can settle over time, and it requires professional installation to avoid the risk of a mold or mildew problem.
