Having a greater R-value for your attic insulation is important for your home’s energy efficiency. If you don’t already have your attic properly insulated, Impact Crawlspace LLC uses Owens Corning insulation products for maximum quality. All work comes with our “Impact Guarantee” for the best service, reliable warranties, and best prices.
Some insulation, older products, can become less effective due to gaps, pests, mold, moisture, or poor initial installation. If you have hot spots or areas that feel drafty, chances are high that you need to upgrade your attic insulation. The right type of insulation will prevent air leakage through the roof deck by creating a dense barrier between the outside environment and indoors. This way, you can maintain an even temperature throughout your house without overworking your heating or cooling system. Replacing your attic insulation will make your home more energy efficient.
Here's a breakdown of what you need to know about each type. Cellulose insulation is made from recycled materials like newspaper and cardboard that are treated with fire retardants before being blown into your attic space. Fiberglass is made from glass fibers that are woven together to create a thick mat that can be installed as batts or blown-in material. While we install both, there are things to consider for both types. Together we discuss fire resistance, pest control, sound reduction, and R-value to determine the best fit for your home or business.
Upgrading your attic insulation can be a small investment that yields significant benefits. Our goal at Impact Crawlspace LLC is to approach your home with a big picture in mind. We are proud to provide Pink Hill residents with greater energy efficiency options for their crawlspaces AND their attics. Call us today at 252-560-7776
Uneven indoor temperatures, rooms that feel especially hot in summer or chilly in winter, high heating and cooling demand, and thin or damaged insulation can all signal a problem in the attic. An insulation inspection can identify gaps, compressed material, air leaks, and other areas that allow heat to move between your home and attic.
Attic insulation slows heat transfer, helping your home hold onto conditioned air during hot summers and heated air during cooler weather. That thermal barrier can make indoor temperatures more consistent and reduce how hard your HVAC system works throughout North Carolina’s changing seasons.
The right insulation depends on your attic design, existing material, moisture conditions, air sealing, and the R-value your home needs. Fiberglass and other common insulation products can work well when installers choose the right application and address air leaks or moisture problems simultaneously.
Consider replacement when insulation becomes wet, moldy, badly compressed, contaminated by pests, or too damaged to perform well. You may also need an upgrade if older insulation leaves large gaps or no longer provides enough resistance to heat flow for the home.
North Carolina homes deal with summer heat, seasonal temperature swings, and plenty of demand on heating and cooling systems. Attic insulation helps slow unwanted heat movement through the top of the home, which can improve comfort and support better energy performance.
