Spray foam insulation is a smart home improvement investment because it prevents warm air from escaping during the winter and cool air from entering in the summer. As a result, your heating and cooling systems do not have to run as much to maintain your home’s comfortable temperature, leading to lower utility bills month after month and substantial long-term monetary savings.
High-quality attic insulation also helps reduce temperature fluctuations within your home and allows your existing heat-generating appliances to last longer. Additionally, insulating your attic protects against the formation of condensation, which leads to mold growth and structural damage.

Choosing the right attic insulation depends on your climate, your home’s age, and your budget. The Department of Energy recommends that homeowners install attic insulation with an R-value of at least 30. Insulation with higher R-values is more effective, however, and will offer greater energy savings.
Insulation batts or blankets are pre-cut panels in a variety of standard sizes and R-values. They are a cost-effective option for most homes, and they are available in fiberglass and mineral wool. They can be installed as a DIY project, though you should follow all general construction codes and COOL roofing standards when installing them.
Loose-fill insulation is blown into the attic, and it can be made from materials like fiberglass, mineral wool or cellulose. It is more expensive than other insulation, but it is ideal for attics with irregular joist spacing and nooks and crannies.
