Attic Roof Insulation

Enjoy lower utility bills and higher comfort and home value with a roof insulation upgrade

4 signs that you need to upgrade or install attic roof insulation

Rooms directly beneath the attic are too hot or too cold at different times of the year.
High heating & cooling expenses.
Attic floor is covered and used for storage.
Ducts and other HVAC equipment in the attic.

Attic insulation plays a critical role any home's overall comfort and energy efficiency. It can be installed in one of two places: on the attic floor or beneath the attic roof. Installing attic roof insulation (instead of attic floor insulation) has several benefits.

Properly installed attic roof insulation can eliminate many air leaks that waste energy and make parts of your house uncomfortable. With attic roof insulation, you'll also get better performance from ductwork located in your attic.

Foam roof insulation is better than fiberglass

See how attic roof insulation with radiant barriers can improve your home's comfort.

Although many builders have installed fiberglass batt insulation between attic rafters to insulate cathedral ceilings and attic roofs, this technique isn't as effective as more modern methods of roof insulation.

Fiberglass insulation can compress and lose R-value, and it's also unable to stop air from leaking out of or into your house. Better materials for attic roof insulation are rigid foam boards and spray foam insulation.

Spray foam: Technically known as Spray Polyurethane Foam or SPF, spray foam is most commonly applied in the space between attic rafters. It can act as an air and moisture barrier in addition to providing very high R-value. If you are converting an attic to living space, SPF is a smart option to choose.
Rigid foam insulation: Rigid foam, like the SilverGlo® insulation from Dr. Energy Saver, comes in panels or sheets of different thicknesses. When used as attic roof insulation, rigid foam can be installed between attic rafters, directly beneath attic rafters, or in both locations. Like spray foam, rigid foam provides an air and moisture barrier as well as high R-value insulation.
