Before properly insulated insulation was available, homeowners stuffed newspaper, bottles, and tins into walls and attics to help keep the house warm. Now, most homes have the potential to save energy and avoid expensive repairs by adding insulation in the attic. Attic insulation, combined with attic air sealing, can make a big difference in a home’s comfort, helping maintain a consistent temperature and saving energy.

How Proper Attic Insulation Saves You Money | Coastline Insulation of Pensacola

Coastline Insulation of Pensacola, FL is a great place to start when insulating your home, as it’s often accessible and relatively easy to get into. Before attempting attic insulation, however, it’s important to understand what you’re doing. Crawling around in a dusty attic can be a messy and dangerous project, so it’s recommended that you wear a disposable face mask, gloves, and a hat. In addition, many types of insulation can emit harmful fibers that can irritate your skin and eyes. You should also avoid walking on the ceiling drywall; instead, walk only on the joists or truss chords to prevent falling through the roof.

There are several different types of attic insulation, but blown-in fiberglass batt insulation is the easiest and most cost-effective. It can also be a DIY project if you have a vehicle capable of hauling the rolls and you’re comfortable crawling around in the attic.
