Save Money with Attic Insulation Installation in Kingwood 

Having the correct amount of insulation in your attic can make your Kingwood home cozier throughout the seasons. Increased energy efficiency could also help you save money on heating and cooling bills.

Do you have the right amount of insulation? Probably not. A recent study by the North American Insulation Manufacturers Association found 90 percent of homes in the U.S. don’t have enough insulation. If every home in the country was appropriately insulated to current building code, the Boston University School of Public Health discovered it would reduce electric consumption by 37 billion kilowatts. That’s enough electricity to power 3.4 million American homes annually!

Does My Home Have Enough Attic Insulation?

You can check existing insulation to find out if you have an adequate amount in your attic. If it’s shallower than 7” deep, your Kingwood home is lacks enough insulation. In Kingwood, 13-14” deep is recommended.

Additionally, if your home is more than 10 years old, you’ll likely need increased attic insulation in your Kingwood home.

Strengthening your insulation levels could positively change your energy bills, saving you up to 20 percent.** It can supply a vapor barrier against humidity, stop air leaks and may limit wear and tear on your HVAC system.

Types of Attic Insulation

There are three kinds of attic insulation—spray foam, loose fill and batt.

Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation mixes liquids that expand into a foam on contact. Closed- or open-cell applications can be used in attics.

Closed-cell foam supplies the most insulation. It also offers an extensive barrier against air, vapor and water.

Open-cell foam spreads when applied, stopping cracks and other hard-to-reach spaces. It’s best for obstructing air but isn’t 100 percent waterproof.

Both types of spray foam insulation may even help block noise.

Loose Fill and Batt Insulation for Attics

Loose fill insulation is blown in through special machinery, while batt insulation is rolls that can be trimmed to fit. Insulating material can include fiberglass, cellulose, mineral wool and cotton.

Insulation is graded for its resistance to heat flow. This is also known as the R-value. Different levels are recommended based on where you live.
