When it comes to improving the energy efficiency of your home, one of the most cost-effective projects you can undertake is to seal and insulate your attic. According to the Department of Energy, properly insulating the attic can save you 10 to 50 percent on a typical heating bill. The EPA estimates that homeowners can save an average of 15% on heating and cooling costs (or an average of 11% on total energy costs) if they seal their homes with air conditioning and add insulation to attics, floors, tight spaces, and basements. In other words, adding insulation to your attic will definitely make a difference. The R-value is the degree to which attic insulation can prevent heat from escaping or entering the house.
To understand how much insulation your attic needs, we'll first need to review something called an “R Value”. Aerosol foam insulation is relatively versatile and easy to apply, and is often the best choice for homes with some existing degree of insulation. From reducing energy bills to feeling more comfortable in your home, attic insulation makes a big difference if done right. Homeowners earn a few hundred dollars, on average, by adding insulation to the attic and then putting their house up for sale.
