Attic Insulation

As more and more families look to save money by lowering their energy bills and home heating and cooling cost, they are discovering the benefits of improving and increasing the amount of attic insulation. Attic insulation keeps your home warm in winter and cool in the summer. As heat rises in your home it naturally moves to cooler areas and places where temperature differences are measurable. By insulating your attic spaces you provide resistance to heat flow ensuring that heated or cooled air remains in the interior and isn't escaping through your ceiling and roof. Inadequate insulation, gaps and leaks in your home wil cause your heating and cooling system to run longer and more often in order to maintain temperature in your home, wasting energy and resulting in higher energy bills.


Adding Attic Insulation

As part of our service we will measure the amount and depth of insulation currently in your home as well as the square footage of the attic area. Four Seasons takes a full service approach to your attic insulation needs. This means that we look at the ventilation, both the intake and exhaust, as well as the any insulation inadequacies that may be present. Four Seasons takes great pride in providing its customers the very best in quality installations and in customer service. We are committed to your 100% total satisfaction.

A quick way to see if you need more insulation is to look across your uncovered attic floor. If your insulation is level with or below the attic floor joists, you probably need to add more insulation. In the coldest climates, insulating up to R-60 is recommended. R-Value is the value given to insulation products that states their resistance to heat flow, with increasing values providing more insulation. An R factor of R-60 means you should have approximately 21” of insulation in your attic. Older homes tend to have less insulation than modern homes and overtime insulation settles causing the density to decrease. Adding Attic Insulation qualifies for the $1,500 U.S. government tax credit for tax years 2009 and 2010. Over time, additional attic insulation can pay for itself by cutting energy bills by 20 - 30% or up to 10% annually on total annual energy bills.
