Attic Insulation and Its Many Benefits

With our hot humid summers and cold windy winters, keeping an attic properly insulated can be very important. Proper insulation keeps the heat and air conditioning in while cutting your energy bills by a possible 30%. Attic insulation in the Twin Cities is so important for so many reasons. And, just because you currently have insulation in your attic already, it does not mean it’s doing its job. At Lewis Insulation, we install high-quality fiberglass, foam and cellulose insulation for homes in your area.

Have your attic insulation assessed by the experts and upgraded whenever necessary. It could not only save you money, but improve a variety of other possible complications that can come with old insulation. If your home becomes warm quickly in the hotter months or too cold during the cooler months, chances are you could need new insulation. Having the experts at Lewis Insulation upgrade your attic’s insulation can help provide you and your family with year-round comfort. As experts in the industry for over 35 years, we have put together some of the many great benefits of replacing your attic insulation:

A Safer Home

Damaged, outdated insulation in your attic can be hosting a number of contaminants and possibly even rodents. Due to bacteria and disease, these contaminants can be incredibly harmful to you and your family’s health. They can even grow and spread throughout the home if not put in check. Keep in mind, if there is an odor present, you might very well need new attic insulation.

Energy Efficiency

By having your attic insulation replaced, you can essentially ensure you are not letting money escape through the ceiling. Today, nearly 60% of homes in the US are not properly insulated, so reduce your energy costs and help keep your home comfortable and well insulated all year long. Proper attic insulation can allow for even temperature distribution within the home as well as provide moisture control, and provide your home with a more environmentally-friendly impact. It can even increase your home’s resale value.

Stronger Home Structure

Many of us adopt an ‘out of sight, out of mind’ mentality when it comes to old, outdated attic insulation, however, it can even begin to affect the structure of your home. Ignoring your attic insulation can cause damage to the wood frames or beams where rotting and mold can occur. Ensure the structure of your home by having your current insulation assessed and the experts will determine whether or not you need new insulation installed.
