Insulating Attics { benefits }
Generally the first place that comes to mind when you are considering adding insulation is the attic. Poorly insulated attics are responsible for 25% to 30% of heat loss. This is why most attics are a great starting point for many homeowners due to the relatively easy access and very few obstructions. Sometimes adding more insulation is only part of the battle, there is still an opportunity to greatly improve your home's energy efficiency through air sealing. Through the many leaks in an attic, air can leave the house or air can penetrate from outside and can account for a substantial amount of heat loss, as well as lead to various moisture and mold related problems. It is easy to see that Air Sealing is very important!
Snow melting faster than your neighbors? do you get alot of icicles forming? This is a good indicator that your attic has low levels of insulation, your heat and money are going straight out the roof.
