Blown-in Insulation
Loose-fill Cellulose & Fiberglass
For attics, blown-in, or loose-fill, insulation is often used. This includes fiberglass and cellulose. This thermal insulation can be installed in the floors and walls. Blown-in attic insulation offers a number of benefits. It can help:
- Lower your energy bills
- Reduce noises between different levels of your home (ideal if you use your attic as a bedroom)
- Make your home more comfortable
- Improve the efficiency of your HVAC systems
- Contribute to a healthier environment
Radiant Barrier Insulation
Radiant barrier, or foil insulation, works a little differently. It’s installed in the attic ceiling, right below your roofing. Radiant barriers work by helping your home reflect, rather than absorb, heat from the sun. However, they are more cost-effective in hotter climates.
