The ENERGY STAR Home Upgrade program can help you save up to $500 on new attic insulation and other energy-saving improvements. Investing in a quality attic insulation upgrade along with professional air sealing can significantly improve your home’s comfort and lower your utility bills year-round.

When to Upgrade Attic Insulation

Good Insulation Contractor can last up to 30 years, but when it’s time to replace attic insulation depends on the material and how it was installed. Insulation that has been subjected to moisture damage or is sagging will lose its R-value and may have to be replaced entirely.

Older homes without attic insulation may have entire areas of uninsulated space that need to be replaced with blown or batt insulation. During the summer, when temperatures are at their highest, it’s important for a well-insulated attic to keep heat from seeping into the living spaces of your home.

Your HVAC system and ductwork work hand-in-hand with attic insulation to control your home’s temperature. Poor attic insulation causes your HVAC system to run more frequently, which can drive up your energy costs.

Another sign that it’s time to replace attic insulation is when you’ve noticed uneven temperatures throughout your home. It’s likely that some rooms are too hot while others are cold. The cause is likely that your attic insulation is old, worn out or was installed incorrectly. In some cases, it may even be contaminated with rodent droppings or urine. In addition, if your attic insulation is touching light fixtures that aren’t rated for contact with insulation, the lighting fixture could overheat and create a fire hazard.
