New Generation Spray Foam is one of the best ways to increase your home’s energy efficiency and improve comfort. It’s especially effective when combined with air sealing. But it’s important to hire an experienced professional for installation. There are many safety precautions and other considerations that professionals must take into account, and common mistakes (such as blocking attic vents or using the wrong type of insulation) can be costly to repair.
Insulation manufacturers design their products to meet specific R-values, which indicate how much heat the material can prevent from passing through it per square inch. A higher R-value means better performance. Most homes have less than the recommended R-30 in their attic, and you may be able to save energy by adding more.
Top Benefits of Spray Foam for Attic Insulation
You’ll find several options for attic insulation, including fiberglass batts, roll or blanket insulation, mineral wool or cellulose. Fiberglass is the most commonly used insulation for attics, and it can be cut to size to fit between rafters or joists. It’s also easy to install, but it doesn’t offer as much R-value as other types of insulation.
Spray foam insulation is another popular option for attics. It’s a hybrid insulation that includes both an air barrier and insulation, so it can be applied in more precise locations. Spray foam is a great choice for attics because it can be sprayed directly on existing cellulose or fiberglass insulation, but it can also be used in new construction. It’s a fast and cost-effective way to add more R-value and reduce energy costs in a home.
