There are several spray foam insulation options for homeowners, ranging from the inexpensive and simple fiberglass batts to the more expensive rigid foam panels. It’s also possible to add radiant barriers, which slow the transfer of heat from sunlight into homes and are an especially effective option for warm climates.
Improving Energy Efficiency with Advanced Seal Spray Foam Insulation
If you’re in the market to save on energy costs, a good attic insulation upgrade is the first step toward saving money and making your home more comfortable all year round. Insulation helps to keep hot air out in the summer and cold air out in the winter, reducing HVAC workload and helping to cut heating and cooling costs.
When it comes to deciding which type of attic insulation to go with, the best choice for most is fiberglass. This insulator is comprised of delicate glass fibers and made from recycled materials, so it’s environmentally friendly. It also has a high R-value and resists moisture, which helps to reduce the risk of mold and mildew. However, this type of attic insulation doesn’t do well when it gets wet and can be quite dangerous to touch or breathe if you aren’t wearing protective gloves and a mask.
Rigid foam insulation is a great alternative to fiberglass and provides the same energy efficiency as cellulose loose-fill but with the added benefit of creating an air seal. This eliminates leaks and drafts which can cause conditioned air to escape the home during the winter and humid outdoor air to enter in the summer, significantly cutting heating and cooling costs.
