Saving Energy with Attic Insulation in Your Atlanta Home

Chances are, you may not think much about the insulation in the attic of your Atlanta home, but you may want to ponder over this point: according to the United States Department of Energy, as much as 45 percent of a home’s heat loss occurs through the attic. With so much heat transfer occurring through your roof, it is important that your attic is properly insulated to mitigate both the amount of heat lost from your home in the winter and heat coming into your home during the summer.

Many homeowners may think the easiest solution is to simply visit the home improvement store, buy a few rolls of batt insulation, and insert it between the joists in their attics. However, there are several downsides to the do-it-yourself approach when installing attic insulation in your Atlanta home. Namely, you significantly limit the number of options available to you, as there are several types of energy-efficient insulation available which are impractical for homeowners to install on their own, including spray foam, loose fill, and radiant barrier.

There are also many potential health risks associated with installing insulation, and the proper precautions must be taken to prevent the inhalation of harmful chemicals or release of them into the living quarters of your home. Besides, you can buy the best quality insulation with the highest R values available, but if the product isn’t installed properly, you’ll lose on your investment because your attic insulation won’t provide your Atlanta home with all of the benefits you paid for.
