In hot climates, insulated attics reduce energy bills by reflecting radiant heat away from the interior of the home. This type of insulation also works well during winter to keep heated air inside the house. It also protects your home from air pollution and other contaminants, especially if the attic is not well ventilated.

Insulation Contractor materials vary in their performance, cost and availability. Some are made from natural materials, while others are made from synthetic components. While natural materials degrade over time, high-quality synthetics can last virtually indefinitely.

What to Expect During Attic Insulation Installation | Insulation Panama City

One of the most common types of attic insulation is fiberglass batts. They’re inexpensive, quick to install and come in various thicknesses. They’re best suited for attics with standard joist spacing, few obstacles to work around and adequate headroom.

Cellulose is another popular form of attic insulation. It’s the cheapest option and has good thermal efficiency, but it settles over time, making it less effective over time. It also absorbs water and becomes heavy, causing the attic ceiling to crack and drywall to sag.

The most durable and cost-effective form of attic insulation is blown-in fiberglass. It’s installed with a blowing machine that creates a dense, even distribution. It’s best suited for attics with standard stud spacing, few obstacles to work around, and ample headroom. It also has a higher percentage of recycled content than other attic insulation options and offers a more consistent R-value rating.
