Why Attic Insulation is Important

Deters Pests
Certain types of insulation deter pests and rodents. These insulation products can prevent insect infestation and keep your home healthier and cleaner.
Reduces Humidity
Attic insulation reduces the humidity in the house. If the attic is not insulated, the heat moves in the attic, raising the temperature to 150 degrees Fahrenheit. During the night, the temperature cools down, making the overheated attic humid and condense. Insulation reduces moisture and keeps your attic free from damage.
Insulation Products for Attic Insulation
Spray Foam Insulation
Applying spray foam insulation in attics is quite convenient and reliable. In fact, it is one of the best attic insulation products. It helps to properly insulate unsealed and hard-to-reach areas such as drop ceilings and bulkheads, plumbing and electrical service penetrations, leaky ducts, and duct penetrations.
Fiberglass Insulation
Fiberglass batt is resistant to moisture so it is less likely to promote the growth of mildew and mold. It discourages infestations and it is effective for a long time. These qualities make it an ideal choice for attics. Blown in fiberglass (also called loose fill insulation) is a better choice for attics as compared to batt insulation as it spreads evenly.
Cellulose Insulation
Cellulose insulation forms a uniform blanket of natural fibers to protect from the harsh weather. Made up of recycled insulation material, it is an economically-friendly option for homeowners. It is treated with chemical borate to make it a deterrent for pests and rodents.
What People Say
Every time you hear the heat kick, or the air conditioning start up again, its costing you money.
Why Should You Have Insulation Installed by a Professional?
The difference between long-lasting, effective attic insulation and leaky, drafty insulation that only partially protects against heat loss and gain can be determined by an expert installation. Studies show that if you properly insulate and air seal your attic, it could reduce around 25% of air infiltration. A properly insulated attic will reduce the cost to heat your home in the winter and keep your home cool throughout the summer.
That is why it is vital to have an experienced professional, such as our team at Green Apple Spray Foam install your attic insulation. You can be certain of great products and service, as well as unrivaled integrity and value when you choose our organization.
Signs That Your Connecticut Attic Is In Need of Insulation
If your Connecticut home is more than a few decades old, there is a good chance that the attic does not have adequate insulation, or that the insulation is broken, contaminated, or squeezed, rendering it ineffective.

Your home is difficult to heat or cool uniformly.
Your heating and cooling expenses are uncharacteristically high.

FAQs
The overwhelming majority of heat loss in your home goes through the attic. The higher the R-value you have, the more protection against the transfer of heat through the ceiling as heat rises. It is currently recommended to have at least a level of R49 in the attic.
As most heat is lost through a home’s attic, it is the most crucial part of the house to be insulated. A well-insulated attic can help you save money on your energy expenses.
Attic insulation choices include loose-fill and batting. Using specialized machines we can blow loose-fill insulation into the attic. Loose-fill is suitable for attics with irregularly spaced joists and numerous barriers to work around. If you only have a little amount of space in your attic to deal with, loose-fill insulation may be the best option. Batting comes in rolls that are normally 16 or 24 inches wide and fits between your attic joists. A foil or paper backing is attached to one side of the batting to act as a vapor barrier. Multiple layers of batting can be used.
